From the most serene prince the lord Nigel by Anvil’s Virtue
illustrious king of Ealdormere, and Adrielle by inspiration the Queen of
Ealdormereans, greetings. When, under the sweetness of peace, the minds of the
loyal find rest, then the life of Ealdormereans is adorned with good conduct,
and also the whole of the kingdom, because the affairs of all kingdoms are
everywhere arranged more favourably. Our humility has led Us, now and at other
times, to bestow awards upon the worthy during such times. Naturally, We are
prepared and shall be prepared to acknowledge the service of Duncan MacLeod.
Unto this man, with a pure heart, we give an Award of the Maiden’s Heart.
Written at Feast of the Hare in Greyfells, the third day of Hallowmas in the
first year of our reign, Anno Societatus 48. [4 November 2013]
