"To the fine people of Dragon's Hearth,
Let is be known that Castellan Ulrik regretfully will be unavailable for a time in Dragon's Hearth due to the nature of his work. He is abroad securing allegiances with neighboring nobles and towns and procuring resource transactions. Because of this, he has asked that I assume his responsibilities that would require him to be present in The House until his return. This includes, but is not limited to, swearing in those who wish to take the Castellan's Oath. I am humbled and honored that he would think me fit of such a task in his stead.
In light of this provisional information, please review the following and ask if you have any questions regarding this matter specifically or generally.
TIDING OF DRAGON'S HEARTH MANOR:
May Light shine on your Path
and show your feet the way of Truth.
May Honor glow in your heart
and lead your spirit in The Course of Right.
BENEDICTION OF DRAGON'S HEARTH MANOR:
Go with Honor toward your Sworn,
Charity for your lessers, and
Justice for your fellows.
May Sagacity rule your mind,
Prudence watch your path,
Temperance guide your hand, and
Resolution spur your spirit.
Truth be your home,
Liberality your cup,
Diligence your crook,
Hope your stead and
Valor your Measure.
CASTELLAN'S OATH:
I will be faithful to the Lord, never cause him harm and will observe my homage to him completely against all persons in good faith and without deceit. As the tides to the moon, my will to yours, my liege. I pledge my fealty to you.
Answer:
I will protect the interest of you, my vassal, and look to your prosperity. You shall be as one who dwells within the house, sheltered from the storm. I swear to repay loyalty with love, service with honor, and oath breaking with vengeance.
LORD'S OATH:
I will to my Lord be true and faithful, and love all which he loves and shun all which he shuns. As the tides to the moon, my will to yours, my liege. I pledge my fealty to you.
Answer:
I take you as my vassal. You are of my house, as the very stones. I pledge to hold you, to guard you, to keep you. I swear to repay loyalty with love, service with honor and oath breaking with vengeance. As the moon to the seas below, my will to yours. I pledge to hold you from escheat.
THE HIERARCHY OF DRAGON'S HEARTH:
In the field: In the absence of the Lord, the Knight is in charge.
*In absence of Lord Michael, Sir Cloch is in charge.
In the field: If there is no Knight, then a Guard Lieutenant or Squire may take command.
*If Sir Cloch is not available, a Squire, Guard Lieutenant (which we currently do not have) or one with rank equal to Squire may take command. If Sir Cloch is not available, Scribe Aasha will take command, as Scribe is a civilian equlivent to a Lieutenant Military -- thereby being below a military Lieutenant but above a Seargent on the field.
In civilian matters: Castellan Ulrik's rank is a civilian equivalent to Knight. *In light of Castellan Ulrik granting Aasha provisional rank and duties, she assumes this rank while needed.
In civilian matters: Outside of provisional ranking, Scribe is a rank equal to Lieutenant, therefor off the field would be below a Knight but above a military Lieutenant.
In the absence of someone with a civil equivalent to Guard Lieutenant or Squire, a Sergeant or other of similar rank may take charge. The Constable (a position that is open), the Corporal or The Bottlebearer of The House would be appropriate of this rank. Cork Kinallen Cathmoore is both the Corporal and Bottlebearer of The House.
Should no one of rank be present, then those who remain should choose from among themselves a leader. Those who are of the House should take precedence over those who are merely in it. Should none who are of the House be present, then one who is part of the Guard as a private holds rank over one who is not.
Anyone wearing the honors of their rank will always be slightly elevated over those who do not.
In summary
:
Lord Cathmoore, Sir Cloch Kinallen Cathmoore, Castellan Ulrik (which Aasha will be acting as until further notice), Scribe Aasha, Bottlebearer Cork
~In Service
Aasha Cathmoore
Scribe of House Cathmoore
Acting Castellan of House Cathmoore
