Prayer of The Knight
Spoken first by the Monastics Militant of Ilmater, this prayer was seen as the work of a softhearted knight unable to perform his duty. As many winters passed and the harsh realities of Rondo lessened, their words have become widely accepted with all but the most extreme and archaic of our faith.
O Master of Mercy and hope for the hopeless,
Instill into me this day the spirit of mercy and forgiveness,
To bestow likewise, myself, upon those who, in their wretchedness,
Mete out cruelty upon your helpless and suffering children,
So that all may come to bestow mercy in your manner.
Or failing that, guide my hand to fell your foes,
This, I ask, as your humble and loving servant.
