From Their Excellencies John & Flavia
During the Middle Ages it was common for a skilled craftsman to share his work and knowledge with others while traveling throughout the lands, through gifts, the marketplace, and teaching. After many years of hard work and teaching his trade to others, this skilled craftsman would become known as a Master of his trade. Therefore, it is our pleasure to name Master Hroar sviðandi as Master Potter to the Barony of the Angels.
By our hand, this 17th day of December, Baron John ap Griffin, Baroness Flavia Beatrice Carmigniani, Reeve Peter Cadarn, and Reevess Gabrielle nicChlurain
