Since creating this scroll, I have learned that the use of "hack-hands" (faux scripts) are offensive and misrepresent cultures. Because of this, I will no longer use hack hands in my scrolls, but I am preserving these images for a record of personal growth in both scribal and equitable practices.
This is an Armenian scroll, because of Lady Catella's surname.
Calligraphy & Illumination
K ValravnRoxbury MillAtlantiaPoem
"Adelhait, Christoph; King, Queen of Atlantia see subjects who outstand;Nature provides them the molds, both to desire and remand:Unified herds shake earth, galloping, pointed onward by a lead mare;Flocking young ravens, instead, selfishly fight for their share.Virtue Catella shows: equine noblesse of heart, equal in aspect.Nobles lead cavalry’s charge: such should her title reflect.We then, at Highland Foorde’s Riverside Melee Revel, on 1st of June,Arms for Catella award. Others now guide with this boon."Lord Ishmael ReedRoxbury MillAtlantia
