On the subject of niftiness: heraldry?

Post by Shyriath »

Would anyone happen to think a Kildari heraldic institute would be a good idea? Granting coats of arms and such?

I would consider a Shirerithian heraldic institute to be extremely nifty. :kaiser

Hmm, didn't Erik bring this up at some point and we began to discuss colours and designs, but never got around to doing it? If a heraldry office based in Kildare produced heraldry for Shireroth something like that, it'd be pretty cool!

The discussions did begin in Brookshire, and nothing came of them. Presumably the same thing will happen here.

Kildare has many cultural differences with the other parts of Shireroth. I'm not sure we can say that Shirerithian heraldry is the same as Kildarian heraldry. :no
From a distance I'm concerned about the rampant lawyerism manifesting itself in Shireroth currently. A simple Kaiserial slap on the wrist or censure by the community should suffice. - Jacobus Loki

Well, there's no reason why reasonable cultural differences in design shouldn't be accounted for by a heraldry office. Considering the diversity within Shireroth, it'd almost have to anyway.

Indeed, My Lord Dutch. But some people speak about standardization, what's almost impossible with the cultural differences.

Nevertheless, it has my support.

Thank you, my Seneschal. I do enjoy my visit here... so warm, so hot, so unlike the world I knew as a child. The Lands of Farewell, the Reaches of the Elw, are cold, even now. Have you ever been there, my Seneschal?

I have visited them in my dreams, Your Highness. It gave me the feeling that I had to avoid that the same would happen in my barony. Nontheless, ages ago, the Kildarian Time War started and the coldness I feelt in my dreams became reality. Eventually, tensions rose and we had to go to war (a civil war between myself, as Dutch of Kildare, and Andreas, the Baron). The war ended with a status quo. But the coldness stayed by many disappointed Antyans. However, Sermolot will rise and the harts of the people will be warm again. :)

Let it be known, that Elws are welcome in Sermolot.


Oh... wait we're talking about temerature?! :D

Ah! Seneschal - you speak to my mind. Your words pierce me, they pierce my heart. For in our beliefs, Seneschal, it's all about dreams. We, Elw, await the eternal night of dreamful sleep. For in this world, all our dreams are singular. But in the next to come, dreams will be put together into one collectivity.
