Sunland: Orders of Chivalry - New Design Contest!

                                                                                                  "Year 531 of the first millennium

City of Lunnenburg,

Greetings my lord,

The capital of our great Empire of Sun is celebrating. Over the next few weeks, the biggest festivity of this lustrum will begin: the cup of the four kings. The four Orders of Chivalry of the Empire of the Sun will attend the Emperor's call to fight in the different tournaments that will take place throughout the festival, with the aim of deciding which Order will take the place of the Emperor's escort for the next five years.

The Emperor has assigned you an important mission: you will be the person in charge and guardian of the census of the Orders. Under your tutelage we hope for the perfect development of this great event. You can start with the census by updating the name and history of the great Orders, as well as any other information that you consider relevant to bring to the attention of the Emperor.

May the glory of the Sun Emperor be with us,

Great Council of the Empire of Sun"
