Bond of Blood & Brine

The Bond of Blood & Brine is a binding code among the Greefolk clans, holding them together through shared principles of unity, survival, and fair conduct. Each tenet is a safeguard, preserving and protecting the clans against internal strife and outside threats.

• Stand as Kin – The Bond is as strong as our unity. No clan rises above another by deceit, and no hand turns against kin.
• Hold to Fair Trade – No clan will hoard, cheat, or undercut. Trade true, that all may endure.
• Keep the Peace Among Clans – Let no feud run unchecked, lest it spill into the streets and call down ruin.
• Endure Together or Not at All – If one clan falters, the others bear it up; if one falls, the loss is shared.
• The Bond Above All Else – Should the Bond be broken, so too is the right to kin, to trade, to clan.

Each of these tenets is a promise and a warning, ensuring that each clan’s strength is woven together with the others, securing the survival of all.
