State your name."
"Senior Captain Irizi'ar'alani."
"That person no longer exists. That name no longer exists. You are no longer of Irizi. You are no longer of any family.
The Ascendancy is your family. The Ascendancy is your home. The Ascendancy is your future.
The Ascendancy is your life.
Senior Captain Irizi'ar'alani is no more. In her place now stands Commodore Ar'alani.
Do you accept this uniform and this new life?"
"I do." - ―Supreme Admiral Ja'fosk and Senior Captain Irizi'ar'alani
A ceremony in which a Chiss officer was stripped of ties to their Chiss family took place upon their promotion to the flag rank (commodore or higher). In it, the Supreme Admiral declared, "the Ascendancy is your family."[1]
