Seraphic Prayer

In the name of Star, furnace of our being, forge of our substance, greatest of all fires, Star give us light, give us even in darkness the gift of right creation.

In Fate we lay our trust, in the way of Life and Light, in ultimate destiny's pattern, which we cannot deny, whatever we choose, however freely we choose.

In the name of Pneuma, breath of our minds, wind of our thoughts, born of flesh or carried in machine, guide our hands, enthuse us, that we may create in truth ourselves, tht we may manifest what is within, without.

And in the name of the Eld, those born of flesh and those resurrected by the gifts of our past creativity; in the name of those who burned that we might find a truer path, who suffered the Cataclysm that we may live. ..
