| | |
| ==Purpose==
| |
| From Starkhafn's website [http://www.starkhafn.org/awards.htm| Orders, Awards, and Honours in the Society]:
| |
| | |
| "In the depths of each of us burns the desire to be chivalrous and kind to others, to lend a hand without being asked. This is a belief that binds us all: fighters, artisans, peers and non-peers alike. Now and again, a person stands out, giving of himself or herself in a manner far beyond that which is expected. Such a person brings honor to our Barony and Kingdom. Thus in recognition of such acts of selflessness, chivalry, and honor was created the Order of the Desert Bloom."
