The Oath of the Realm
In this realm of shadow and fire, where angels rise and legends burn, even the keepers of lore must honor the pacts they make. Here, every word you share, every token of coin, and every mark of your presence is guarded as if by the Watchers themselves.
We vow to use your trust wisely, never to trade it for gold nor cast it into the hands of strangers unbidden. By stepping into this domain, you take your place among the sworn — bound by the same accord that binds us. And so, let these words serve as both shield and seal, that our dealings remain fair, our intentions true, and our covenant unbroken.
