Varför valde Solamnic Knights en ros som deras symbol?

En annan militär ordning som valde en blomma att representera sina högsta medlemmar skulle skratta åt - så varför gjorde de det?

Rosen har mycket symboliska betydelse under historien.

  • Love
  • Honor
  • Tro
  • Beauty
  • Balans
  • Passion
  • Wisdom
  • Intrigue
  • Devotion
  • Sensualitet
  • Tidlöshet

Riddare av rosen, som är den högsta ordningen, skulle lätt kunna belysa ett antal av dessa symboler, såsom ära, balans, visdom, hängivenhet och tidlöshet.

The Order of the Rose has always been the most prestigious branch of the Knights of Solamnia. The Rose Knights provide leaders, lawgivers, and exemplars to the Solamnic Knights and the world, guiding others on the path of honor by word and deed alike.

The Measure of the Rose focuses on Wisdom and Justice. DragonLance Nexus

Inte säker på vad det är från ursprungligen, men alternativt DragonLance Nexus har detta att säga

Legends hold that, at the end of his Quest of Honor, Vinas Solamnus knelt in the Whitestone Glade, on Sancrist, and received the investiture by the three gods of the Knighthood, Paladine, Kiri-Jolith and Habbakhuk. When he raised, he saw a beautiful rose of gold blowing in the spot he had been kneeling. He so decided to name the highest Order of the knighthood in this way, to remind Solamnia of this sign of divine favour: and so Paladine took the golden rose, and gave it to King Vinas, who embossed it on his ancient plate armour, over his heart. From then on, the Grand Plate of the Rose has been the armour rightfully owned by the High Justice of the Order; sadly, in the days following the Cataclysm, it was lost.
