The Acolytes of the Golden Sun walk a blessed path. You are the
embodiment of the life giving sun, and bound to the Light. In your path
you will face many challenges. Keep these oaths close to your heart.

Never allow your rage to overwhelm you. Still your anger and your
vengeance and focus instead upon the serenity of the Light.

Remember it is not only your word, but your actions that will guide
others of the Light. Be of fair tongue and of fair act.

Though you are gifted with the powers of life and light, you walk in a
world of death and darkness. You are the shield of light. Protect those
of the Light, and stand fast against the forces of the Darkness. Never
turn your back upon a comrade, there are none too far lost that they
should be greeted with hatred. This does not mean one who is turned
should be met with open arms, merely that hope must not be lost for them.

The Maran are your brothers, as you protect them, so they protect you.
There is no greater strength in Thera than the unity of the Light, do
not work against the Maran...but also do not become too much like them.
their path and yours are not the same. For even though sword may defend,
and shield may strike a foe, it is more effective in reverse.

The religions of Thera you should have knowledge of. Learn what you can
and share it with your brethren. Often, knowing the right way to phrase a
prayer may sway the priest.

Guide the squires as well as the scribes. Shepherd them as they walk
along the path to the Brigade. Guide their minds and hearts so their eyes
are always upon the Light.
