"I think a person who can make a living by doing family history should know a lot about this." Green pulled out a chair for the monk, brought an empty wooden box for himself, and sat down at the table upside down.

"Let's talk about it carefully."

"If you want to hear it, of course you can't do it, but you'll have to wait a bit." Brother Marco carefully pressed his hips against the surface of his chair, as if the iron spikes of the Inquisition had suddenly appeared from it.

He rummaged through the stacks of books on the table for a while, picked out two large tomes with less ash and old layouts, choked a few times, and covered his mouth and nose to pick out some private books that didn't seem to be very valuable, and stacked them on top of each other.

After examining all the preparations, he calmed his breath and opened the top one.

A dazzling array of patterns flashes before the eyes, stacked in a way that is indistinguishable to the layman, dividing the space within the shield-shaped frame.

"You know, a family that lasts long enough may have more members than leaves, and even many leaves may not know where they came from from growing to dying."

"But for those who know how to interpret and are willing to take the time, every leaf can be traced back to a clear trunk, and the further back on, the easier it becomes."

Green nodded his head repeatedly, regaining a little of the feeling he had when he was in class, and even the sleepiness brought by the afternoon sun was so similar, "That's why I'm here." ”

"That's pretty much what my job is about, sorting out the fallen branches and leaves and putting them back together. And in this, the coat of arms refers to the guide mark, and it is also the best evidence. ”

"Theoretically, each qualified coat of arms can be used to locate the position of the branch in the entire family tree, reflecting the bloodline, legal system, and territory of the owner of the coat of arms, and thus inferring from it what happened in that year."

"It can even be said that heraldry is history itself." With a sleek opening line, the monk regained his sense and confidence, "For example, this four-point shield has a four-pointed star on a blue background on the top left and bottom right, and a swordfish on the top right and bottom left. ”

This shows that the owner of the coat of arms came from the union of two families of equal status. The paternal family emblem is a four-pointed star, the maternal family coat of arms is a swordfish, and the horizontal bars and zigzag on the top are due to his status as a non-heir, which needs to be distinguished from the family orthodoxy. ”

"This is only one of the relatively superficial basic rules, not all coats of arms are treated in this way, and not everyone can ask a professional heraldic officer to give advice, but in general, it can be done by several generations."

"In other words, as long as you give the heraldic information, you can find out who the owner is?" Green thought back to the pattern he had identified from the armor, which might have been more useful than he had imagined.

"As I said before, in theory, yes." In other words, there are practical difficulties.

"In a family that generally follows the rules, it is not difficult to verify it, but what you are asking about now is not an ordinary family. The royal family's position in heraldry has always been somewhat awkward. ”

"The rulers of the kingdom are expected to follow the rules of succession more strictly, which is the de jure basis of their rule." As the largest family of nobles, it is very incredible that there are flaws in the family tree.

"The problem lies in the origins of the royal family, the Pendra family itself, they are not a simple noble family that exists in history." The monk took the holy book placed in the corner of the table and placed it in the middle, "The first King of Norse is still a legendary figure. ”

"As a legend who is on par with all the saints and spreads the light of the Heavenly Father throughout the kingdom, there are many records about his deeds, from being selected to being selected to ruling the kingdom, I believe you are familiar enough with it."

"But as a member of a family, the father's son, the child's father, the wife's husband, ...... Not so specific. Observing the reaction of the Inquisition priest, Brother Marco was encouraged to see that he had not been clearly dissatisfied, but had listened attentively.

Talking to the Inquisition about something that has rubbed the side of heresy is not an experience that anyone can have.

For a professional and unsociable person, few people would listen so intently to his stories about the reality of the ages, which are too dry and boring compared to the legends.

"So what about actually?"

"Actually, the genealogy of the royal family is not so clear. Our first king, Arthur Pendra, was the youngest child in the family, and St. Jaeger met his seven brothers before choosing him under the guidance of the Lord. ”

"Suppose, I mean, if there is such an aristocratic family with at least eight children, someone will almost certainly inherit it, right?"

"That's right." Green nodded.

"With one exception, we may now have at most seven people to pass on the heraldic motif so that it can be preserved."

"And what is this coat of arms?"

"yes, what is this coat of arms? No one knows, because the sacred scriptures are not responsible for recording the names and deeds of the relatives of the chosen ones, unless they are related to the story. ”

The book has a strong personal touch, with special notes on the characters, even if it may only be used as a backdrop.

In addition, some sections on the environment and education have been demarcated, confirming that this is a far less prominent family, but still has a heritage.

He closed the tome and turned the first pages of another tome. Unlike the tree-like genealogical structure of other books, the simplest and purest sword insignia is listed separately from a few small coats of arms that have been adjusted.

"Not only that, but for some time after His Majesty Arthur Pendra, the royal lineage was not so clear. Multiple sword-in-stone sword-related coats of arms can be found with two or more changes, but there is no corresponding upstream ancestor pattern. ”

"The light of the sun will obscure the stars and moons, and the status of the narrative content of the sacred scriptures seems to completely obscure the records of the division and marriage of the royal family during this period in the story."

"Everybody who tries to study the genealogy of the royal family goes back to this and encounters a significant fault line. Just as the previous step was in the category of heraldic historiography, the next step is to step into the story of revelation. ”

"It is not even possible to verify the meaning of the added motifs, the collateral division, the addition of in-laws, or the partial inheritance of the original coat of arms of the family. And some of it has not been inherited, and it has been completely lost. ”

Continuing to turn the page, the coats of arms below gradually have tree-shaped line links, and people are connected to each other, but that is not the time period that Green wants.

"Don't have a clue?"

"Probably it's just that our wisdom doesn't read the revelation given by the holy scriptures." Marco replied with a classic universal explanation.

To Green's ears, there was already another meaning in this tried-and-true perfunctory sentence.

The absence of a trace is the greatest trace, and what power has deliberately erased a piece of content that should not be missing from the record.

But it did not disappear completely, but survived in a distorted way, guarded in plain sight.

Recently, I have been so busy that my feet don't touch the ground, and I only feel dizzy when I get empty, and I have little time and energy to think. Maybe the two-day National Day holiday can be set aside to update more.
