Remember a few weeks ago when I was very happy with how a scroll went? As I've just gotten an IM from the recipient, [livejournal.com profile] draconisregena, I know it's been received so I can post it here:


Queen's Order of Courtesy for Saraswati-mán.ikkam, aka Ruth
Ruth Codex S 1399, fol. 2054

The exemplar is a 15th C Dutch MS, Codex S 1399, fol. 2054. The design was picked, layout drawn, text written, and calligraphed on the first day, and all the illumination (drawing, inking, and painting) done the second day.

The text reads:

Vistors comes from far away lands et many make this realm their home. Yet few of them shine so fair as the flower of India lately bloomed in Drachenwald, Saraswati-mán.ikkam, whom we know well and love greatly and whom it is our pleasure to call Ruth. For her deeds and largesse and delicacies brought from abroad, we, Fiona, queen of Drachenwald, make her a member of our Order of Courtesy. Done the 19th day of June, a.s. xlv, at the coronation of our heirs and in witness whereof we have set our hand below.
