Is this completely correct?

Knowing that the Oath of Neutrality, which prevented all metallic dragons from interfering in the affairs of mortals, was still in place, she transformed into the form of a Kagonesti elf, and assumed the identity of the elf-maid Silvara.

This is technically correct grammar, but it is probably too complex a sentence for fiction, unless you are deliberately writing in a wordy, academic style. It would also be fine as part of a brief summary of a story, where you were trying to explain the whole plot in one paragraph. " It is still a little dry for fiction, though.

But if you are actually writing fiction, it would be better to find a way to explain the Oath of Neutrality
