Ikta succeeds in a daring plan to cross the Kioka border and return the princess home.  But this means he gets a reward, and his reward is the title of Imperial Knight.  Now he finds himself dragged into a war he hates, serving a government that doesn't want to win, and despising the princess he rescued.
I swear by the god Alderamin in heaven
أقسمُ بالإله ألديرامين في السّماء
Ich schwöre beim Namen
des Gottes Alderamin im Himmel,
Juro por el dios Alderamin en el cielo
Juro por el dios Alderamin en el cielo
Je jure sur Alderamin
qui règne sur les cieux
Vi giuro sul dio Alderamin, assiso fra i cieli,
Em nome do nosso Senhor,
 Alderamin, que está no céu,
Клянусь всевышним Альдерамином,
