Coronation Prep

[Carlüs Éovart Vilaçafat]

I considered the suggestion of the Fulbright Fellow, but unfortunately, imposing an ordinary over all during the marshalling appears to have a specific heraldic meaning (even aside from the break with Talossan precedent) since it will read as an impaling or new arms instead of a quartering to indicate the union of his personal house and the realm.

In other words, quartering preserves the integrity of the individual arms.  Putting an engrailed cross over everything would make this an entirely new achievement, instead of a quartering, and would imply a right by blood to Talossa.

Thank you for the art links!  Great!

This makes perfect sense. I thank the Dean for humouring my unorthodox idea!

On the contrary, I am grateful to the Fulbright Fellow for his willingness to think outside the box and suggest novel solutions! And this idea can even be possibly utilized a badge or something.

It's outside the box ideas that keep us growing. Frankly, it was a good idea but the Dean is right that it would not mean what we intended.

As for a badge, I do need to start thinking about that as well. Perhaps it could be a modified version of my marshalled arms.

Perhaps simplified from quarterly to party per bend? Something like:

per bend sinister argent and ermine, the Chinese glyph Ben sable and a scroll bendwise sinister separated by a bend sinister engrailed gules.

The shape of the field to be determined of course.

Yeah that might be quite snazzy!

Congratulations Sreu: Txec !

I would be delighted to participate in the coronation in an active role.

It feels wonderful that the CoA I designed for you will be remembered and revered throughout Talossa for a long time.

Thank you BenArd! I had quite forgotten it was you who designed my original arms. I am excited for what the future holds.

Okay, as I read the situation and after ample time for other members of the Coletx to comment, here's where we stand:

- The prospective arms and associated badge have been sorted. Beautiful badge art has already been created, and we just need a good enblazonment of the arms.

- There is widespread agreement that it is preferable for the coronation to occur in the GTA, and general willingness to wait until summer for that to happen, if necessary. As we get to February and March, we can check and see anne whether such plans will actually work out for the incoming monarch.

- That leaves us with considerable time to tackle the niceties of the ceremony. A proposal for what will happen, a master of ceremonies, a translation of key parts of the script, and assembly of the necessary paraphernalia.

Is there any other business to put on our radar? We should probably assemble any upcoming grants, and inquire of His Majesty as to whether he would like to make the awards.

Perhaps different parts of this should go to different heralds?

[Sir Txec dal Nordselvă, UrB]

As part of the potential upcoming Accession, I have been working on a draft of Accession Honours that I will first be presenting for advice to my incoming Privy Council and also with the incumbent government. I have a few ideas about things going forward but I don't wish to act unilaterally so will be seeking advice.

On another note, I do think it is perhaps time to elevate the The Fulbright Fellow to the rank of Pursuivant. I'll have a chat with the Dean and The Fulbright Fellow in another thread.
