Binding to Good People

1/5

Those born in the protected lands, remember, your blood shall lead the good through the judgment. In the end, your blood shall flow into the one who creates the new world.

2/5

You must not taint your blood, nor make your blood thin with pleasure. Beware of associating with people left behind, and of careless breeding. Because, fortunate new people of Zoah, you are always under the Gods’ power.

3/5

You must live your whole life, till passage to death, on the soil of Zoah. The world is tainted with the blood of nonbelievers. He who stands outside Zoah is tainted, and must suffer the fate of being judged over again.

4/5

You must not consume food from outside of Zoah, because it is food abandoned by the Gods. You must sustain yourself only by consumption of the Blessings of the Forest.

5/5

Those born in the protected land, must obey the code or they shall not receive the protection of the ‘Guardian Fire’. That light must not die until the Day of the End.

The Code for Prayer

1/3

Those born in the protected land must give prayer to the Gods on the Night of Atonement established by the High Priest. On this sacred day, you shall not consume anything other than purified water.

2/3

Until sunset, purify yourself with water, and wear clothes woven from sacred materials from the Forest of Blessings, Also, on the Night of Atonement, you may use no lamps of any kind.

3/3

Those who consumed food before prayer, those who did not purify themselves, those who prayed in filthy clothing, and those who tainted the Guardian Fire with the fire of the ground, are banished from the protected land.
