<i>'Outside the Church there is no Salvation'</i>
Salvation is all about the work of Sartan, demonstrating the glory of Sartan and that is why men such as ourselves should guard it so severely. And abide by the teachings of Sartan. Outside the Holy Church of Ibladesh and Sartan there is no Salvation. It is Sartan who brings you salvation, but only when you deserve it! Hell is the wrath of the Gods! It is there creation, to release their wrath upon us. The wicked deserve the full extent of Sartan's just wrath, as they have deviated from the teachings the Gods. There soul will be lost because they don't live by the teachings of Sartan. Encourage your children, your family, your friends, everyone whose worthy of salvation to be like Sartan. Because it's all about Sartan and His name. That His name be great among the nations! That the world will lay before Sartan and bow to His magnificence, so they may encounter eternity. Total surrender to the person and will of Sartan. The glory of Sartan. You don't need self-esteem, you need the knowledge of Sartan. It's all about Him. Your heart beats for Him. And only then the gates of salvation on the end of the narrow path you're walking will open for you.

Moral Code of Conduct

The moral code of conduct was formed by Sartan in his formative years - when he was still a young and proud noble, strictly religious believing in the strength of the Gods and only saw the good in people. The code of conduct was considered rigorous and challenging to the mind, soul and body. The moral code just applied to Sartan, as a mere mortal wouldn't be able to meet Sartan's aptitude to kill and win battles. A talent gifted by the Gods made Sartan the greatest warrior ever born. His talent was His curse, but even thought Sartan's gift, it didn't got the better of Him, He remained unpretentious to mankind and servient to the Gods. Sartan didn't fought for the greed of Kings, but He fought for the love of His country and Gods. He never chose to become a hero, He was born as one. It was His destiny.

Ancient texts of the Gods were discovered and some narrate the greatness of Sartan. For years, priests of the Church of Ibladesh have tried to translate the writings of the Gods, and after much afford they have been able to verbalize parts of Sartan's morale code. Even thought most of it isn't yet translated, and other parts of the code can only be matched by a God, there are still Priests of Sartan who have been able to adapt some parts of Sartan's Morale Code of Conduct to suit the hierarchy of the followers of Sartan, the dauntless warriors of Sartan.

Path of the Warrior

Deceived by fear, influencing the way you live, the way you lead, the way you battle, you shall feel, upon the field of battle, opposed by greater odds as outnumbered by many, that you're just mortal. There is no shame in fear. There is only shame in letting fear rule you. Try not to look scared, and you'll find bravery in your heart! Death isn't catastrophic, neither does the sound of dying men guaranty you immortality. No, but death on the battlefield in service to Sartan is the greatest glory you can achieve in life. Have faith in Sartan and you shall live as a warrior, a dauntless warrior of Sartan. The tinkling vibe on your hands, a predilection for cold steel and a growing desire to unseat your sword and slice it through the air on any moment. You have seen the light because it comes from within. You don't become, but are born as a warrior. Heeding Sartan's call, pursuing His footsteps on the road to glory and honour, battle and victory.

Value of Life

Humankind is superior to every creation, only inferior to the Gods. Intelligence is what separates us from beasts, it's what placed a brick between mankind, absorbing the hierarchy of beasts and adapting it on ourselves. What is the value of one commoner compared with that of a noble? But what is the value of one noble compared with thousands of commoners? Wars aren't fought, cities aren't fed and there won't be any taxes to collect without the mainstay of commoners. Each and every living being is a descendant of Ramus' creation. Value the creation of life. You shall not harm those innocent to the madness of nobility. You shall free them, conquer the very lands they reside and bestow them with the mercy of Sartan. Bring order where there is chaos, bring light into the shadows and divide food among those who have little.

Will of the Gods

Only the Gods speak the truth, and nothing but the truth. Their will is law. And you shall obey their will, as you are devoted to their magnificence. Sartan's will shall be bestowed upon us, by His prophets. Every priest, is a prophet of Sartan. It is as though Sartan is speaking through a man. And His word shall be obeyed and nothing else matters except conforming our lives to the word of Sartan. As how can we question the very word of Sartan on this side of heavens gate? You should trust in Sartan's ability to lead. Believers of Sartan and followers of His teachings end up were Sartan wants them to be. And for the most part, not because they heard the voice of Sartan or heard a vision or anything else, or their great ability to discern the voice of Sartan. It's the great ability of Sartan to lead. And many times we don't even recognize it was the will of Sartan until we look back and see the hand of providence all through our lives. Heed the call of Sartan, as he does not leave you adrift behind with His will, but he also gives you the grace to carry it through!
