ANST - current archery awards

Greetings, Arabella here,

In Elfsea the first one to be awarded was to Lord Edric who had previously
been the Archery marshal in Elfsea.  I believe Mahadi (sp?) gave that one.
The next in Elfsea went to Lord Fearghus MacKenna.  Current Kingdom Archery
Marshal.  Earl Barn gave that one.

Oh my... Fearghus won't take it off.. he wears it fighting, to court,
business meetings.  If the Garb goes on so does this award.

On a similar Note - Fearghs was also given a Sable Falcon for his combat
archery at 3 Kings about 2 years ago.  I believe there is only 1 other
Archer given a Sable Falcon in the Kingdom.  If I'm not mistaken it was to
Lord Talon.

Maybe some one in the Heraldry department, someone who has access to the
Order of Presidance, might comment about the others in the Kingdom.
