Fleurs de lys
A stylized fleur de lys adorning the shield of a Bretonnian knight


The Fleur de lys is a magical lily, said to grow only were the Lady of the Lake appears. It is her sacred emblem and a popular symbol in the kingdom of Bretonnia.

A stylized version of the fleur de lys is commonly used on the coat of arms of Bretonnian knights, showing their devotion to the Lady. Questing Knights usually adorn their arms with it to bring good luck for their quest. It also decorates the crown of Bretonnia.
