Re: Kemrese Flag

[Padraic Brown <agricola@wam.umd.edu>]

Hello all, e ffelig new an!

Some other possibilities: the same dove centered on a cross (appropriate
to some Kemrese Saint) on the green field; the same cross on the same
field with the dove upper left and the dragon lower right.

What colour had you thought of for the dove?  and should it be flying up
or down?
