Greetings! I’m Æsa feilinn Jossursdottir (known by most as Feilinn), your Backlog Deputy. I have another batch of backlog scrolls ready for delivery to their recipients.
Scrolls will be available for pick-up at the Great Northeastern War on Saturday July 14th during the Scribal Office Hours.

During this time, scribes may also drop off completed backlogs and any scroll blanks they may have.
It is strongly suggested to email the Backlog Deputy (backlog.deputy@eastkingdom.org) to confirm that you will be picking up a scroll.
More pickups will be organized as the year goes on.

If you want to arrange pick up outside of these events, please email the Backlog Deputy to discuss. All official communication must be done via email, so please do not use social media messaging to discuss scrolls.
