A warrior's honor has value beyond that of jewels and spices. One man
perhaps regards his own honor highly, another treats his as so much dross.
For the honorable warrior, placing his reputation on the line with a
binding oath means that he is absolutely committed to achieving his goal.
The morale effects of such an oath can be inestimable.

Note that a warrior's honor is almost unrelated to conventional notions
of good and evil; a cruel warlord may reliably keep his word, while a
helpful, kindly, charismatic bard might have no measurable honor at all.
(My daughter made the acquaintance of one such. If you see him, I'd like
to have a word with him - I'll make it worth your while.)

Swearing properly is an art and a science. The oath must be worded
impressively to impact your friends and foes, but also must contain the
right formulae to impress the gods with your gravity. The secrets of
such oaths and vows can only be mastered by the world's more puissant
fighters.
