[Olwen the Odd]

I was lucky enough to be present when Mistress Kiri got elevated.  The 
ceremony was very special and done in the fashion of her oriental persona, 
even spoken in Japanese and translated to english.  And the scroll is 
certainly a work of art.  Much honor and thought went into Kiri's well 
deserved award ceremony.

After quite a number of years I still have not gotten an AoA scroll, but now 
it would be a GoA scroll anyway.  I did get a scroll when I recieved my 
Pearl.  There has been a huge effort here in our Barony to get scroll blanks 
made up and in stock for any Baronial awards.  Oh, and when Alainne, Hans 
and Morningstar recieved the Bright Leaf (now Coral Branch) they got scrolls 
then, but they were blanks for some other awards as there was/is no 
scroll/order design for the Kingdom level A&S award.

time. (OFC)
