Scroll Text - Mariana Maria Pietrosanti - Scarlet Guard 2016
Kingdom of AEthelmearc - Martial Award
Right trusty and well beloved Mariana Maria Pietrosanti, We greet you well, and for as much as by the inestimable goodness and grace, We have summoned you and have had you delivered before Us for the skill of archery which you have so displayed to all. Doubting not your service upon the range, but for the love and affection which you show when you place nock to string, the knowledge there of should be joyous and glad tidings unto you, We have thought good to certify you as one of the premiere archers of fair AEthelmearc. To the intent you might feel alone, it is Our will and desire that you take your place within the Noble Order of the Scarlet Guard and adorn yourself with the regalia of the said Order so that Our enemies shall tremble with fear when they behold you upon the range. Given by the hands of Thomas Byron and Ariella, King and Queen of Sylvan AEthelmearc, on the fields of Pax Intrurptus, the ninth day of July AS 51.
inspired by Letter of Queen Jane Seymour to the Privy Council of England 12 October 1537
