[Steppes] heraldry question

[alkudsi at aol.com]

I'm sure if you ask, Master Robin and Mistress Serena would be happy to include basic heraldry as one the topics in their wonderful at home sessions! And you'd have some of the best minds in the kingdom for heraldry available to pick!

hank you for these interesting bits of information.  As someone who is 
urrently looking for a good device but who is terribly intimidated by all the 
ossibilities coupled by the "strange" language, I was intrigued.  Please, tell 
s some more?  This might be very helpful for those who are new, also, to help 
hem figure out what they might like to have as their device.  I know I *could* 
esearch it on my own or take a class, but I learn better from tidbits that 
ross in conversation as the immense scope doesn't boggle my mind as much this 
ay.  Perhaps someone could occasionally throw out onto the list a "quickie" 
lazoning lesson?

hanks again for the tidbits :D    Rua> From: rudin at ev1.net> To:
