Khutugh Koghun - Award of Arms

Fiercest winds blow from the East
Feuling this fencer’s inner beast
Who’s passions much admired
As such find their rank increased
Majesty Ryouko'jin
Of the Iron Skies has briefed
Queen Indrakshi and agreed
And both have so bequeathed

This their Award of Arms

Appointment won’t raise alarms

That Khutugh Koghun receives 

As attestment of their charms.

Now framed by these spring winds

As the air finally warms

He’s moving ever forward

While he blocks, thrusts and disarms

Done in Eastern Crown Province of Ostgardr

Anno Societatis LIX

Galen of Stonemarche - Court Barony

 These Kingdom Monarchs, like in unity:
Matthew and Fiamuin at their last court
Would take this pleasing opportunity 
To show Our unequivocal support 
And extol such praise (Our time might run short) 
But We push through, eager to show regard 
In this Our great Crown Province of Østgarðr

At this Coronation Event, We see

All manner of those that call the East home

Including one before Us on bent knee 

This accolade will ever be his own

To take with him wherever he may roam

 Court Barony For one known as Galen

Now filled with praises here and back again
