In the ideals of our Society, the Order of Chivalry is much more than skill at arms. It is a roadmap that guides warriors to the Heroic. The epic poem, Beowulf, paints a picture of battle – man against monster, both within and without. He asks; Does faith or fame keep you good? No. Does wealth or wife keep you good? No. What keeps you good? Vigilance. Vigilant self-reflection and accountability. Vigilance against the dark, both within and without. Vigilance against cruelty or abuse and the willingness to interpose one’s body between the dragon and it’s prey, in whatever form that takes. Cadmus is vigilant. He is mindful of those around him, especially those new to our Society. He offers his aid, unstintingly, sharing his passion and love for the anvil of self that is the martial path, that they, too, may be tested and made better. Cadmus encourages those around him to be their best selves, and helps to light the way with honor.

(Elevation Heraldry)
Stand here, O murderous swords, and drip no drop from your keen edges; but resting for this time in the high marble house of Ansteorra, announce the bravery of Seleucid Cadmus Lochagus. Sing glory, sing honor, sing of this warrior of the rising star.
Lachesis granting no red girdle for guidance, he sought inspiration instead from the shining stars of our southern sky on his journey to this day. Booming-voiced, rose-lauded, bright-eyed, silver tongued, unshakable in their principles, brilliant and beloved of the muses, their constellation lit his long and winding path. They offered joyous encouragement when his spirit quailed. They come today to tell you of his worthiness, his mete place in these high halls of honor.
He comes to you aperion, free of claim, seeking to join the Hectors and Atalantas of the Sable Star’s pantheon. The first star in a new constellation, he will guide those who follow seeking bright-bladed glory. He comes.
