Scroll Text - Oðindisa Býkona - Court Baroness 2026
Kingdom of AEthelmearc - Court Barony
In the third year of the reign of King Andreas and Queen Kalista, a Lady was called forward. A weaver of the grass-biter's coat, displayer of embroidery, protector of the hive-inhabitants. Oðindisa Býkona, 13th daughter of the harbor-light of Delftwood, was her name and she asked for a boon. The King and Queen received her well and asked what boon she wanted. Removing her hair ribbon’s hoard she said that she has served as the wealth-bestower and keeper of the sting-flies and of the tamer of the wolves of the air for too many years, and now it is time for her to step down and rest. That her Coronet is destined for a new brow to ride. The King and Queen did hear her words and, being good and just rulers, listened to their hearts and did grant her boon, but told the Daughter of Delftwood that once a Coronet is planted on the worry ground of the head, it can only be removed through a bog of tears, and they did give her another Coronet to wear and told her that the mills of Delftwood would stand against Garmr's breath because of her leadership. Thus it was done in the 60th year since the forging of the world, at the Feast of the Seven Deadly Sins, on the 21st day of the 2nd month, so sing the Skalds of AEthelmearc.
