Obliteration awaits. And all prefer the end over the corruption that prefaces the fall. What shall shelter us from horror? Three tools, my brethren, three choices to make.
You must be pure. All sound foundations start from the heart that knows its cause is just. Know you are right, know your strivings are free of taint and envy, and nothing can corrupt you.
You must be focused. A builder starts with a just cause, but he must not allow passions to adulterate the building. Know where you are strong, know where you are weak. Know and be at peace with the knowing.
You must be strong. All your passion and preparations come to naught without toil and sweat. We are our strength, our will shall be done. Trust in your arm, for it creates with its power.
Strength. Focus. Purity. These are the tools we have to ward off decay. Let each be a thick root of our society. Each tent is powerful alone, but a society that entwines them shall never fall. Never fall.
