COGNIZANCE

Swearing an oath can be dangerous if you are unaware of who you are swearing an oath too. You may be serving something that you didn't intend to serve if you were not fully aware of the nature of the beast you "agreed" to serve. Maxim: "If you know not the name of the thing, the thing itself is surly lost" so if you don't know your own name, you may lose your rights to your own body if you attach yourself to another god than the god that granted you your one and only true name. If you don't know your own name, you are surly lost.
