Guardians of the Flame

The Guardians of the Flame was founded in the city of Zonasa.

The Oath of the Flame:

I swear to fight for justice, for those who gain power dishonestly hold no power over me.

I swear to fight for honor, for those who would hide their faces from their enemies hold no respect from me.

I swear to fight for education, for those who would withhold or reject information will find they know less than me.

I swear to fight for tolerance, for those who persecute needlessly could learn much from me.

I swear to fight for civility, for those who slander and reject discourse have much to hear from me.

I swear to fight for patience and logic, for those who act rashly and passionately have no support from me.

I swear to fight for the common people, for those who act as Gods will not be worshiped by me.

I swear to fight for understanding, for I will not die for a cause misunderstood by me.

I swear to fight for fairness, for no man inherently deserves less than me.

I swear to fight for brotherhood, for all men bleed and sweat like me.

I swear to fight for love, for without love there is only darkness and suffering and death to me.

Thus I burn a flame inside my heart, which I can not deny or extinguish, for I can see those now that smother my brethren and my flame shall burn like a beacon against them.
