Award of the Elephants Heart

Awarded to Quintonius (modernly known as Quentin Jensen)

By the Barony of Cynnabar on 2015-10-25

Among other arrangements which We are always accustomed to make for the prosperity and welfare of the Barony, We, Kasha, Baroness of Cynnabar, and Ermenrich, Baron of Cynnabar, desire to bring all things into harmony with the ancient laws and public order of the Midrealm, and to provide that those who merit recognition receive fitting accolades. Since Quintonius has persevered in his determination, and We have seen that he neither disturbs the peace or sows discord among the citizens, in view of the constant habit by which We are accustomed to commend all deserving people, We thought that We ought to grant Our most prompt recognition also to him, and hereby grant him Our Award of the Elephant’s Heart, so that he may dwell among Our citizens and may join in their assemblages, provided he do nothing contrary to good order. Wherefore, for these accolades, he ought to labor for Our safety, for that of the Barony, and for his own, that the Society may continue uninjured on every side, and that the people may be able to live securely in their homes.

This edict is published at Our citadel of Cynnabar on this 25th day of October, in the first year of Our enfeoffment and the second reigning month of Our Lord and Lady the King and Queen. Let none countermand Our words.
