baronessekatI gave an oath of service rather than fealty. Here are the words I spoke:
I, Ekaterina Volkova, free person of the Realm, Baroness of the Court of AEthelmearc and Companion of the Order of the Pelican, swear that I will serve well and loyally, against all creatures, living and dead, on every occasion when needed and requested to by the Crown of AEthelmearc, saving when it would cause me to violate vows made to Faith, Family or when my time is needed to ensure the welfare of the Known World at the Great Pennsic Wars. I promise to uphold the laws and traditions of the Kingdom of AEthelmearc and the Society at Large, and to offer advice and counsel, aid and comfort, praise and correction to all who need. Further I do vow that neither title nor territory within the lands of AEthelmearc will I forcefully seize from you, your heirs or your successors, nor will any man or woman acting on my advice or instigation, so long as wolves are welcome in AEthelmearc, I am in this world or terms are renegotiated.
