Citizenship is a privilege, not a right, and thus it must be earned.
1. The nonperformance of the citizenship ceremony, within one year of reaching intellectual majority (the age of sixteen), is punishable by expulsion from the city. This applies only to those individuals born within the city or born to citizens of the city.
2. The oath of allegiance involves the touching or kissing of the Home Stone, the swearing of oaths, and maybe the sharing of bread, fire, and salt. A laurel wreath and mantle of citizenship are conferred upon the new citizen. All citizens must take the oath.
3. Retaining citizenship is contingent upon attending certain public ceremonies and assemblies. Each citizen is expected to attend as many official functions as possible.
4. Every citizen must journey, at least once, to the Sarad Mountains before they are twenty-five years old.
5. Any Fina citizen who refuses to practice their livelihood or strives to alter their caste without the consent of the Ubar, Administrator, or High Council is an outlaw and subject to implement.
