I, swear to uphold the teachings and principals of Tria, the Starborn. I swear to walk the path of Twlight, maintaining the balance between scolching light, and freezing dark. Under my watch, the world shall neither burn, nor wither away. I swear to serve the Star Seekers with wisdom and compassion, guiding our people in both light and dark. I swear to lead with humility, listen with an open heart, and act with the best interest of all Seekers in mind.   I commit to these vows, with all of my heart, my mind and my body for the duration of my service. I accept this mantle with humility and gratitude.
Allesandra - taking the oath of the High Seeker
  The seven High Seekers are the spiritual and political leaders of the Star Seekers. They share that responsibility equally, acting on the principal of consensus for important decisions. Usually each High Seeker focuses on one area of responsibility, may it be spiritual guidance, administrational tasks or public relations.   High Seekers are elected by the priests of the Star Seekers, when one of the previous High Seekers steps down or dies. The title is appointed for life, or until removed by a vote from the priests. This is a rare occurance, but has happened from time to time in the past and keeps the High Seekers accountable for their actions.

Appointment and Election

When a position among the High Seekers opens up, a council of the senior and most esteemed members of the Star Seekeres convenes to identify potential candidates to fill the position. These individuals are usually drawn from the ranks of experienced and highly respected priests. Other priests and faithful are encouraged to suggest candidates to the council to be taken under consideration.   Each candidate undergoes a thorough vetting process, first by the council, then by the faithful and general public. This process shall examine their past contributions, moral character and comittment to the principles of Tria. In many public and private discussions each candiate shows their faith and dedication to the Star Seekers.   After the vetting process, every member of the Star Seekers gets to indicate their approval of every single candidate in a secret vote. Those candidates that get at least two thirds of the Seeker's approval, move on to the Trial of Twilight. This Trial is secret and happens in Tria's Light. It's believed that Tria herself vets the remaining candidates during the Trial. Ususally after the Trial of Twilight, the list of candidates has been narrowed down to 3 or less and the Star Seekers will choose their new High Seeker in a public vote.

Thank you! The oath was probably my favourite part to come up with. Wanted to have something with weight, that doesn't sound like reciting some ancient spell :D
