I totally agree with Mistress Aquilanne. I have heard Laurels say that you
shouldn't get an Iris unless you have two or more thistles. Speaking as someone
who is basically a "one trick pony" in the A&S field who has an Iris it's good to
know that this isn't a majority opinion.
Having a Mastery of several arts is an immense accomplishment and those talented
people I honor greatly. But I once heard the definition of a Laurel as someone
who could make a living in their art in the Middle Ages. I also greatly admire
someone who is an undisputed Master of one subject. I feel there should be no
dispute amoung the qualities of A&S.
