To Her most revered and beloved Excellency, Helen of Greyfells, humble servant, greetings.
We have long witnessed and been told of all your good works, and here within Our leporine halls We would repay you for all your generosity and hospitality that you have shown to all. For, many times, in both canton and barony, as a Seneschal and Chatelaine, you have given hospitality and the true spirit of the Hare. Indeed, the members of one of Our orders has demanded your admittance as just recognition of all you have done! And so, We beg you to continue the good work you have always done, with reverence and love.
Deal, then, Our dear Helene, with this our request, that you join Our Order of the Hare Argent, so that here on earth your deeds may be recognized by all!
This do We, Dubhessa and Joffr, Baroness and Baron of Skraeling Althing, decree. [Date and Place]
Wording by Baron Colyne Stewart, based on a letter from Boniface to Abbess Eadburga, c. 735.
