It's not only Mabreka's fame, it's his position in a hierarchy. This is even more poignant in a supposedly primitive society as those on Atys are: the rulers are distanced from the population. This is how humans have always worked, and homins on Atys have some very interesting semblance to humans, neh?
You as a simple citizen, no matter how esteemed/ardent/illuminated etc you are, you can't have the same ensigns as the rulers. Unless you are granted such privilege specifically by someone higher up in the hierarchy, for specific deeds done. The difference in concept is that anyone can get high fame, if they put in enough work; but recognition and appointment have to be specific to your person.
I think a set of armor with good boosts and maybe the nation symbol embroided on each piece would be sufficient reward.
