At the Crown's pleasure prior to the ceremony the herald shall assemble the Companions of the Order:
Their Majesties summon the Companion of Chiron to present themselves before the Thrones of Caid.
As the Companions assemble the herald shall continue:
The art of archery is an ancient one, and many are its
practitioners. Among them are those who combine great skill
with the bow with exceptional manner and deportment,
thereby promoting honor and chivalry in this Our Kingdom;
these archers are especially deserving of reward.
From the past we draw the example of Chiron the
Centaur,
teacher of heros and healers, who at his death was set
in the heavens where we see him to this day as a centaur
with drawn bow, in the constellation men call Sagittarius.
Thus was created the Order of Chiron, to honor those
whose skill with the bow is exceptional, and is equally
matched by their gentle deportment and manner. This Order
shall bear with it a Grant of Arms, and shall rank equally
in precedence with the Orders of Gauntlet of Caid,
the Order of the Crescent, the Order of the Lux Caidis
and .
When the Companions are fully assembled the herald shall continue:
At this time Their Majesties summon _____________
to present (him/her)self before the Throne of Caid.
