This is the fifth scroll text I’ve done (for those keeping score – the fourth one has not yet been given out, so no blog post yet). It is for the Order of the Maunche, the East Kingdom Order of High Merit for Arts & Sciences. This is the first text I’ve done for a scroll of this level.<\/p>\n

The text was based on Charter # 3<\/a>, p. 142 \u2013 1328-1341, Inheritance Charter of Knyaz Andrei Ivanovich granting a lot of land in the town of Staritse.

Literal translation:<\/p>\n

And so, King Omega Serpentius and his Queen Etheldreda bequeathed to her Katrusha Skomorokh Negodiaeva doch\u2019, membership in our order of the Maunche.
\nAnd she will not need to pay my royal tax, nor postal tax, nor militia service, nor support nobles, nor judicial tax, nor import duties, nor any other of my dues be pulled into of any kind, nor any expenses, nor troubles.
\nAnd our Novgorod nobles and their administrators her will not sue for anything except murder and theft caught in the act.
\nAnd whoever will seek from this yard or these people \u2013 them we will sue, King Omega Serpentius and Queen Etheldreda, or to someone will order.
\nAnd this charter is granted in the year 7523 may on the 23 day.
\nThat grant is sealed with wax.<\/p>\n

Figurative translation, which I read in court:<\/p>\n

We, King Darius Aurelius Serpentius, called Omega, and his Queen Etheldreda Ivelchyld induct Katrusha Skomorokh Negodiaeva doch\u2019 into our order of the Maunche.
\nAnd further, she shall be excused from our royal taxes, and from the postal taxes, and from militia service, and from in kind taxes for the nobles, and from the judicial taxes, and from import duties, nor shall she be encumbered or disturbed in any way.
\nFurther, our nobles of Novgorod and their stewards shall have no criminal authority over her, except for murder and theft if caught red-handed.
\nWhoever claims against her will face the royal judgment and command of King Darius Aurelius Serpentius, called Omega, and Queen Etheldreda Ivelchyld
\nGranted on the 23rd day of May, AS 50, or 7523* since the creation of the world, or 2015 CE.
\n*Medieval Russia used the Byzantine Calendar, in which 2015 would be approximately 7523.<\/p>\n

Final Scroll (C&I by Lady Lada Monguligin):<\/p>\n

\"katrusha<\/a><\/p>\n

This, however, was the final version of the text. There was another version. In the original charter, prince Andrei Ivanovich bequeathed to a monastary a plot of land (\u0434\u0432\u043e\u0440) in the town of Staritse, and then granted broad tax and duty exemptions to the residents of that plot. This would, presumably, allow the monastary to operate something like a duty-free shop out of the space. In my first draft, I gave a similar plot of land to the recipient. I was then told that in the SCA it is not generally appropriate to grant lands, so I wrote the version you see above, stripping out the land grant and leaving in the tax exemptions. Here is the first version:<\/p>\n
