It was as if he were making a knight’s vow of loyalty. And indeed, the words that came from his mouth were the same.
"I pledge my unwavering loyalty."

Was he doing this because of what Enkrid had done?
Because he ended the civil war? Was he moved by that? Was this a newfound pledge of allegiance?
Not a chance.
