Alesone's Court Barony Scroll
Feb. 1st, 2012 07:37 pmIt was a backlog, so it was never read in Court. But she has the scroll in hand, so I can post this safely.
Lucan, King of the East, and Jana, his Queen. Although deeds of the Crown may remain valid from the actual act of performing such deeds, and those things which are lawfully endowed to our subjects by exercise of our will cannot be wrested away by any act of force; it is, however, the duty of our imperial authority to set such deeds, donations and endowments into writing, lest there can be any doubt of the transaction. Be it known, therefore, to the present age and to future generations of our subjects, that we, by exercise of such authority as has been invested in the Crown since the days of Maragorn and Adrienne the founders of our line, do now invest and endow Alesone Gray of Cranlegh with style, title and office of a Baroness of our Court, with all rights, privileges, emblems, and sigils appertaining thereto, the aforesaid emblems to be displayed upon her person hereafter. We decree, further, that no person, small or great, may presume to defy or speak contrary to this our present decree, lest in so doing he suffer our wrath and incur damage to body and person. For the rest, in order that this our imperial decree may, for all ages, remain valid and unshaken, we have ordered the present charter to be written and to be sealed with the impress of our seal and read aloud before witnesses upon 1 October, being the Feast of Saint Remigius, in the forty-sixth year of the Society, upon the Coronation of our Heirs.
