The Daughters of Aduin are the the ladies who most inspire the men's chivalry, to put it short. It is up to each
man in his own heart of hearts and the silence of his soul to determine what it is that inspires his chivalry, and to
select the lady who most does so. The most recent member of the Silver Heart presents this order to the lady or ladies
elected during baronial court at the May Tourney.
