Your Thurian arms intrigue me, as this is the device of my SCA barony, Castlemere, and we often simplify it to a badge of vert, a castle argent.
"If having a soul means being able to feel love, loyalty, and gratitude, then animals are better off than a lot of humans."

James Herriot (James Alfred "Alfie" Wight), when a human client asked him if animals have souls.  (I don't remember in which book the story originally appeared.)

Although they aren't considered Forcinn buffer states, these serve as buffer states between the Forcinn and the Kingdom of R'Kassi.

The arms of the Principality of Jáca recall the origin of the principality in the incorporation of the counties of Jacance and Mont-Volcan and the barony of Pixière under the rule of Arsieu Comte de Mont-Volcan as Arsieu I, Prince de Jáca. The arms also recall that the holy Saint Sava is said to have been a native of this region.

The arms of the Principality and sovereign Emirate of Nur Hallaj consist of a lion passant Or on a green field. The arms were modified on the conversion of the Emir Hafiz (Jabez) to the Christian faith in A.D. 866 to include a cross fleury Or.

The arms of the Principality of Andelon consist of a pomegranate proper on a shield Argent a bordure Gules. This is a nod to the orthographic similarity of Andelon and Andalusia, since the pomegranate is found in the heraldry of the kingdom of Granada.
Our help is in the Name of the LORD, the maker of heaven and earth. (Psalm 124:6, New Coverdale Psalter)
