Greetings from Myfanwy!
Hrefna's correct about the arms vs. the populace badge.  However, it isn't
clear whether Elss needs to know what stuff looks like, or have an actual
chart/design to work from.
I know that Cassandra charted the comet part awhile back to do order
badges in cross stitch.  I'm not sure where mine is at the moment, but I'm
pretty sure that Cassandra or someone will have a copy and can get you
one.
