Ducal Decree #6-- Document of Standardization

[Philip Locke]

FROMThe Ducal Chambers,Soyoth Leber in Vanam.Being an ancient land, Volsaarn and its cities, landmarks, and offices have acquired many a name. To end any confusion that may result from this, the following document of standardization has been issued by will of the Duke.Volsaarn - Hyperborea's island duchyVolsaarni - Adjective form of "Volsaarn" Vanam - Volsaarn's capitol citySoyoth Leber - The ducal residence in Vanam, and the mother barracks of the PaladinsTerminus - The title of the leader of the Paladins of VolsaarnThese names are a mix of English, Lothlarian, and Hyperborean. And, for further clarification, the Duke of Volsaarn is only a Count in the eyes of the Shirerithian Crown, as they view the island duchy as a county within Hyperborea.DATEDThe seventieth of winter in the year 5901.Signed,Ragum VolakDuke of VolsaarnTerminus of the Paladins Edited by: Philip Locke at: 3/9/04 4:40 pm
