A kingdom stands on the shoulders of its people. Word has reached us of one who bears his weight in service. As Chatelaine and Knights Marshall has he helped his shire fight and grow. Running events has he helped the kingdom function smoothly.
Having seen these good deeds are We, Konrad and Aibhilin, Dread Stellar Majesties of Northshield, thus minded to bestow upon Hans Volsch this Award of the Cygnus. Done April eighth AS LI at Coronation.
