7. Wynterset, Stronghold of -- Argent, a winged stag's head erased and affronty azure surrounded by a laurel wreath vert and on a chief sable three mullets of eight argent.

Argent, a winged stag's head erased affronty azure between two laurel sprigs pilewise conjoined vert and on a chief sable three mullets of eight argent

It must also be returned for stylistic reasons. Laurel wreaths must, by long standing precedent, be drawn in a circular, or mostly circular, shape. V shaped laurel wreathes are not acceptable. [Fiodnach Eoghan, Shire of, 11/01, R-Trimaris] Precedents - François, under Wreath

This is not a properly drawn wreath.

This has a complexity count of nine (argent, azure, vert, sable, head, wings, sprigs, chief, mullets), violating RfS VIII.1.a

Return for violating AH II.D.2 and RfS VIII.1a.

8. Wynterset, Stronghold of -- Sable, upon a mullet of eight argent a winged stag's head erased and affronty argent.

Sable, on a mullet of eight throughout argent a winged stag's head erased affronty argent

An argent tertiary on an argent primary violates RfS VIII.2.b.ii.

Conner McAuliffe FitzJames - October of 1980 (via the West): Sable, within a sun throughout argent, eclipsed azure, a goshawk displayed argent.

John Emeris of Ellenar - December of 1980 (via the East): Sable, a mullet within a sun of wavy rays eclipsed argent.

Leiannka Zorya Zelolev - November of 1982 (via Atenveldt): Sable, on a sun argent a lion's head cabossed vert between three compass stars one and two gules.

Rathnar Blaiddgwyn - July of 1983 (via the Middle): Sable, a wolf's head cabossed within a sun eclipsed argent.

Starhelm Warlocke - November of 1973: Sable, on a mullet of seven points argent, an arrow-point inverted gules.

Single CDs for changes to tertiary charges. These apply to any legal tincture of tertiary charge. There are more potential conflicts depending on the specific tincture.

Return for multiple conflicts.

9. Wynterset, Stronghold of -- Argent, a stag's head erased and affronty azure and in base two swords in saltire sable.

The slight trian aspect bothers me, but I'm not sure that it's enough to be returnable.

Even for secondaries the swords are too small.
