But that last clause is EXACTLY why the latest proposal to change the
Queen's arms was returned by the Laurel Sovereigns of Arms!  Atlantia
did not 'think well of it', but as a whole shrugged and said "Eh. Not
important.  Not gonna bother."  There is no way that any reasonable
person can interpret a response of less than 5 percent as being "well
thought of in the kingdom".

There have been a number of ideas put forth to drum up support.  Please
feel free to implement them.  If -- IF -- the level of support matches
that of Queen Niobe's change from erminois to Or, I'm sure that Laurel
would look with more favor on the change.
