Michel Biornson - Order of the Silver Crescent

Silver Crescents sat in
Seats of assembly so
Figures featured for to
Find one that their ranks grow
Here where Hearth-ships dock 
Havens of Sinking swamp 
Great Gold givers Ryou 
Grand Indrakshi filled with  pomp 
Today turns Task of mind toward
Treasured Michel Biornson
Known for netting duties
Known to get what needs done 
Takes on tasks with his tools 
Trained to do every post 
So as said by Us now
Silver Crescent to boast
 With Arms as thus:
Per chevron inverted azure and sable, a bear statant in chief a rondel argent
Done Anno Socitittas LX
