Lindquistringes for Maud de Elsynge

Maud

I didn't intend to do any scribing at Crown Tourney, so I didn't bring my stuff with me. Which just means that I calligraphed this blank (not yet finished, as depicted here) by Greta of Thamesreach with unfamiliar pen, nib, ink, and without a ruler. I'm pretty pleased with my ability to draw evenly spaced lines without a ruler, and while the calligraphy is by no means my best, and I came away with a hand covered in ink, the result is still not too bad. And I can't wait to see the thing when it's wholly done.

Due commendations and salutations to all seeing, hearing, or reading these present letters from Vitus and Isabel, king and queen of Drachenwald. Let all bear witness and testimony to our royal will that on the xix day of October Maud de Elsing is made a Lindquistringes.
