Scroll Text - Arden Scot - Sycamore 2022

Kingdom of AEthelmearc - A&S Award

Reflect upon the deeds and accomplishments of Arden Scot of Clan Scot, Knight of the Realm. None can criticize the martial skills of the said Sir Arden, who's hands are often seen wielding a sword against those who would stand against him in the list. But We have also seen those same hands wielding a pen and a brush, not in destruction, but in creation. For so much that We understand for certain that every craft and fraternity within the most Noble Order of the Sycamore, be they born base and common, have through their skill and knowledge have shown their true Nobility. Well pleased are We with the craft of Arden Scot of Clan Scot, Knight of the Realm, as mentioned above, of illumination and other scribal works, that We are moved to induct him into the said Noble Order without delay and award him the right to wear the sign and token of the said Noble Order forever more to have and to hold, occupy and rejoice without any impediment, interception, let or impeachment by virtue of Our Royal Status forever more. In witness whereof, We, Gareth and Juliana, Royal Crowns of AEthelmearc, to those present, signed with Our hands in Our Third Reign, during the time of the Great Pestilence, in the 56th year of the Society.
