=== Organizational Logos ===

Using a crest as an organizational logo means adopting inherited authority as a corporate, administrative, or institutional mark without carrying the legal responsibilities attached to the crest.

Under Ayaawx, crests do not belong to organizations.
They belong to Houses and carry obligations that cannot be transferred to entities.

A violation occurs when a crest is used to:

* Brand an organization, program, office, or initiative without House mandate.
* Create the appearance of lawful authority where none exists.
* Separate decision-making power from House accountability.
* Shield organizational actions from witness-based review.
* Treat crest authority as institutional property.

Organizations may operate.
They may not inherit authority.

Lawful use requires that:

* Crest authority remain with recognized House carriers.
* Organizations act only by delegated task, not assumed power.
* Decisions affecting land, people, or law return to House processes.
* Visual use never replace lawful consent and accountability.

When crests are reduced to logos:

* Authority is mislocated.
* Responsibility becomes diffuse or absent.
* Accountability is obscured.
* The crest’s legal meaning is undermined.

Ayaawx principle:
''Authority cannot be incorporated.''
