The Oath of Allegiance should be signed by every member of the House of Kildare.
Oath of Allegiance to House Kildare
I [Insert Name Here], being sound in mind and pure in heart, do swear my allegiance to House Kildare in front of the Seanad and [Insert Deity of Choice]. I do swear the following:
- I swear allegiance to the Imperial Republic of Shireroth, for Kildarians shall always be Shirithian.
- I swear allegiance to House Kildare, my brothers and sisters in the sacred trust of governing Kildare, for a Kildarian is always loyal to his/her [delete whichever is inappropriate] noble peers.
- I swear allegiance to the Dutch of House Kildare, to follow him/her [delete whichever is inappropriate] when he/she [delete whichever is inappropriate] leads wisely, and advise him/her [delete whichever is inappropriate] when he/she [delete whichever is inappropriate] has clouded judgement, for even Dutches are not gods.
- I swear to always protect the inhabitants of Kildare and seek their wellbeing, for it is for their purpose that House Kildare serves.
- I swear to uphold the noble traditions of Kildare, in history, war, magic and economics, because a Kildarian should always conduct himself/herself [delete whichever is inappropriate] as befits a Kildarian.
- I swear to uphold the Apollonian Doctrine, and help restore official control of all Shirithian holdings on Apollonia to House Kildare by any means necessary save:
* secession from Shireroth
* the damnation of our eternal souls
* those sins that History cannot absolve us from
for the leaders and inhabitants of Kildare share the bond of history which transcends all lesser ties.
- I swear to protect the Time Crystals and keep the binding, for that is the duty of the Kildarian nobillity.
- I swear to never stay the Time Revisionists from their sacred duty, for history must be upheld.
I shall do all that I have sworn for as long as I shall remain in House Kildare; and may Sakat be generous when he records my mighty deeds.
