Oath of Guardianship

The Oath of Guardianship is an Oath to protect a person, place or thing.

Words

As the sun guards the Earth by day; as the stars by night, so shall l serve thee. This is my duty. I shall not abandon (object of oath) 'til (duration of oath), else may the stars close their eyes and sleep.

Overview

This is a fearful oath with great costs to those who fail. After the words are spoken the oathmaker is bound to protect a single object, person, or place from any and all harm to the point of self-sacrifice.

Effects

There is no cost to make the oath except what is necessary to keep it. A fae who fails to uphold the oath is cursed to never spend two nights in the same bed for 100 years.
