Oath of Service to the Benacian Union

Oath of Service to the Benacian Union

I, [subject name], do solemnly swear:

To make prompt submission before the Union Standards, before the portraits of the Congress of Chryse, and at the altars of the Highest Divinity.

To bind my soul to the Community of the Realm, as part of the great Chain of Being linking this material world to the Celestial Temple above.

To offer the votive first fruits of my labour to the goddess Agni, forger of the Sword of Fire that scourges the enemies of Humanity.

To dedicate the first kill and first meal of each new year in remembrance of the Benac, our ancestor who first claimed this continent for Humanity.

To genuflect, prostrate, and sign this oath in my blood, binding my soul and those of my descendants in obedience to the laws of the Union-State.

To submit my soul unto the higher powers, for there is no authority except that derived from the Highest Divinity and the Celestial Temple.

To revere the Highest Divinity, to submit to the governing authorities of the Union-State appointed in Its name, and to oppose none who act on Its behalf.

To perform all good works commanded by authority without question or resistance, lest I bring judgement upon myself.

To fear the Highest Divinity and the executives who act in Its name, to associate not with the rebellious who lust for change.

To keep the commandments of Union authority for the sake of submission to the Highest Divinity alone.

To keep the faith of my ancestors, to honour their shrines and memory, while utterly forsaking the false idols of the Vanir, Germania, Sisera and the Baishens.

To offer special protection and assistance to the Tribe of Levi, the Mobads, the Vicars and all who attain Holy Orders as representatives of the true priesthood.

To obey without question the commands of the Holy Kohanim, unless contrary to the law, and assist them in eradicating heresy, demon-consorters and those who refuse this Covenant.

By my words and deeds, by my blood oath today, I commit myself and all my descendants into the perpetual service of the Benacian Union until the end of days.
