I think this is a very valid point. From Sara's account at one time Ansteorra
gave out a lot more awards than the other kingdoms. Plus the upper level
ranks rarely get scrolls. As an example I have been a knight for nearly
nine and a half years but still don't have a scroll. And I'm not a lone
example. Most of the upper-level awards rarely have scrolls for them.
I do have scrolls for all of my lower level awards because there are charters
for them.

So if the artisans of this kingdom are swamped with backlogs for upper
level awards, how overrun would they be if they had to create original
scrolls for every award given.

Just some thoughts.
