The Fellowship of the Red Quill is dedicated to the discovery
and preservation of knowledge of the land we live in. Whether
for good or ill we do not seek to make judgements about
this knowledge, but rather respect it for its own sake.
We seek knowledge upon all matters, whether religious, cultural,
historical or geographical, and welcome to our ranks any
who will join with us in this search.
However, we recognise that contributions to the search
for knowledge come in many shapes and forms. There are those
who actively seek out new knowledge, even at great risk
to themselves. There are others, equally dedicated to this
search, whose goal is rather to protect those who actively
seek, and to preserve them from harm as far as they may.
And there are those who, rather than search out knowledge
in the academic disciplines, seek out rather the inherent
knowledge in the beauties and forms of artistic expression;
in music and dance, in painting, poem and literature.
Thus our Fellowship is divided into three Halls, each with
its own leader and codes of conduct.
The Hall
of Seekers is composed of those
who actively seek out new knowledge about our world
and our island home.
The Hall
of Defenders contains those whose
mission it is to provide support for the other Halls,
to protect them while they search, and aid them in times
of need.
The Hall
of Artists contains those whose
contributions lie in artistic fields of endeavour.
But in whatever Hall we sit, our aims are the same, and
we stand united in a single noble Fellowship.
Long live the Fellowship of the Red Quill!
