These are the oaths sworn by all gallóglaigh upon joining a band. The swearing of the oaths empowers the gallóglaigh with an increased level of vigour
The First Oath
To the Réig — to hold your loyalty to the Réig above all other loyalties, to heed their command above that of any other, and to uphold this oath likewise to their successor.
The Second Oath
To the Shaper — the great god that empowered the first Réig to forge the Five Realms into one. To honour the Shaper and to oppose the Gwyllt, the pernicious beings that long to corrupt the Shaper’s children.
The Third Oath
To The Five Realms — to defend the realms against external threats and against false rulers who would threaten the unity of the realms under the Réig.
The Fourth Oath
To your fellow gallóglaigh — to strive and succeed together, or to fail and fall together; to put aside your quarrels when duty calls and fight as one.
The Fifth Oath
To yourself — to conduct yourself with honour and courage, to strive always for advancement and improvement, to make yourself the best that you can become.
