The Princess And The Demon
“I, Dahlia Black, pledge my life, myself, and my sword, to serve you and only you, Nara Yoren, from this day, until my last day, I swear to be without fear in the face of your enemies, to be brave and upright, to speak the truth and listen to the voice of rightness, to safeguard the helpless and do no wrong, and to protect you with my life even if it led to my death.” Sara spoke the words while on her knees, but to her, the supposedly sacred oath was nothing but words, words she memorized and recited but didn’t mean in the slightest, for she didn’t feel the need of some oath to tell her what needed to be done.
