Text

Attend, Atlantia, for all should be aware of the illustrious service that strives selflessly in small places. Know that it is not the size of the service but the disposition that delivers it that ascertains the truly deserving. Such service is encountered in many small ways: a happy hearth, robust repasts, warm words, sweet treats, everlasting support, an eye for the omitted and a thought for the forgotten. Now We, Ragnarr and Lynette, King and Queen of Atlantia, announce such unseen service to all by acknowledging the works and kindnesses of Our beloved Lucy of Wigan. Thus do We induct Lucy into the Order of the Opal on this sodden 27th of October, A.S. LIII, at the Queen’s Rapier Championship in Roxbury Mill, for Lucy has enriched Our Shire and Kingdom.
