Ollam LaneaWordifierAtlantiaOur wolf-marked warrior, robed in azure and ebony,Travels our wave-girded kingdom and beyond, Cloaked in valor, bearing weapons and wisdom To guide his fellow fighters through the foe. Lord Lucian de la Monte, servant and swordsman, Sets out to learn, and then teach those whoGuard our borders, arming them for the field in Well-worked mail to shield them from danger. Leading first our band of skirmishers and then Our northern army against all opponents; This Wolf of the Woods harries any rivals Lurking the edges of our greenswards,Wreathed in a collar of shark’s teeth, ablaze in the sun, Leaving no doubt that Atlantia’s lands are well-defended. All the while leading, teaching, and serving with humility, Marking his days with courtesy and kindness to all. So we are minded to name him a companion of our Order of the Chivalry, and grant him arms patent, so blazoned: Per pale azure and sable, a sword inverted between in chiefTwo wolves rampant addorsed argent. Done this sixth day of August On the battlefield at Pennsic Anno societatis LXI, by Wilhelm and Genevieve, Rightful King and Queen of Atlantia.
