EDICT THE FIRST
By the authority of the NECRARCH, given by law!
By the authority of the INCARNATES, given by fitness!
By the authority of the GARDEN, given by right!
Behold, O People of the Garden!
For it has been seen that, in common with other portions of the nation that is Shireroth, it would be in the interests of the Garden to possess a symbology that would represent it at home as it would abroad. We have studied the symbols of Shimmerspring from ages past, and alongside them the badges of the Incarnates and their clades, as sources of inspiration, and have accordingly devised tokens-of-identity that shall represent the Garden of Shimmerspring.
Therefore, by this Edict, BE IT ENACTED:
1. That the Garden of Shimmerspring shall have a flag in the colors of that of ancient Jugenskaja, green and gold, with a field of the former and charges of the latter, said charges consisting of a cross whose arms join to a ring in the center, with a stylized tree within the ring:

2. That said flag shall be flown or hung at the major points of entry of each municipality, at the entrance of the Incarnates' District or other official quarters in each municipality, at border crossings into the territory of the Garden, and at permanent trade or diplomatic missions beyond the territory of the Garden.
3. That the Garden of Shimmerspring shall have a device which shall serve as badge and seal, consisting of a stylized tree within a ring, both of gold, with lighter gold as the field:

4. That said seal shall be affixed, as it has been here, to each Edict of the Council and all other documents issued in the name of the whole Garden of Shimmerspring.
The above Edict is hereby passed by the Incarnates-in-Council at Elder Beacon, 5229 ASC, and accordingly promulgated by the authority of the Webweaver, whose seal is therefore affixed.
Hear, O People! Sing and rejoice!
