A Lady's Final Protection

"'...With this offering of blood, I will protect her until my dying breath and should her death be inevitable, I shall insure she feels no pain and take upon her suffering as my own without hesitation. And should I fail within my duty, I accept my fate that follows, a fate worse than death. Tonight, I take the Blood Oath of the High Guard from this night until my last, I willingly surrender myself to her. My Watch Begins.'"

Section of the Blood Oath of the High Guardof The Sacred Garden

At the conclusion of the Blood Oath Ritual, a potion of ichor gold-liquid is sealed in a glass potion bottle etched with the Seal of The Sacred Garden that is filled with powdered Black Sapphire. The potion is an odorless liquid that tastes completely unique and pleasurable to the drinker.
The potion puts the drinker into a conscious, euphotic, and controlled state for ten minutes, however, starting around the ninth minute the potion's true nature activates.
