124 Oaths and an aftermath

"Yes. Or depending on the seriousness of the crime, either an Oath of Loyalty, or an Oath of Obedience," the inspector explained.

Evin frowned, feeling like he heard something similar just a few days ago. 

'Ah, I heard Leanne mentioning something about Albin's Oath of Loyalty not working as intended.'

"Have you heard of them before?" the inspector asked.

"Only their names."

"Well, let me enlighten you," the man cleared his voice and began speaking. "As you might've guessed, the Oaths are things exclusively made for criminal mages. The first and least powerful one, is the Oath of Restraint. If you take this Oath, you will lose the ability to kill any non-mage inside the kingdom. You are only allowed to harm them in self-defense, but the Oath might even refuse that, depending on the circumstances."

"How would taking an Oath prevent me from doing what I want?" Evin asked, confused.
