Heraldry

Arms of Villers-Guislain
The arms of Villers-Guislain are blazoned :
Tierced per pale 1: Azure, a ?fleur de? lys argent; 2: Gules, a demi- doubleheaded eagle and a demi-cross potenty argent, both issuant from the dexter line of division; 3: Or, 3 fesses azure.
gollark: It's annoying to explain, so hold on.
gollark: The basic idea is that you can never actually perceive a world where you don't exist.
gollark: (I know all information due to Solomonoff induction.)
gollark: I already knew about this.
gollark: This is mostly irrelevant to "free will", though. Even if our brains use nondeterministic quantum processes internally, I don't see "deterministic process with RNG glued on in places" as more choice-y than something just deterministic.
