Prayers to the Benefactor
Below is a sampling of prayers followers of the Benefactor may use when communing with their god.
Crooked Warden, give me a golden line of bullshit
and the wisdom to know when to stop spinning it.
Benefactor
Grant me quick wits so I need not my quick feet,
Grant me quick feet so I need not my quick hands,
Grant me quick hands so I need not my quick wits,
But, all three would be nice
Crooked Warden, I will fear no darkness for the night is yours
Your night is my cloak, my shield, my escape from those who hunt to feed the noose.
I will fear no evil, for you have made the night my friend.
Master of the Hidden Way,
I pray not for mercy, but for opportunity.
I pray not for justice, but for cleverness.
May my steps leave no trace, my hands no mark, and my tongue no snare.
Let your night guard my secrets as I serve your will.
Crooked Warden, grant your humble servant
the art of vanishing and the gift of misdirection.
May every closed door find its hinge.
May every wary guard grow careless.
May every prize fall quietly into my hand.
Let your will be done in the darkness.
Crooked Warden, pick the lock that binds this soul to death.
Steal them back from the void,
that their life may yet serve your shadowed will.
