To all who have remained vigilant outside the fire's warmth, I give greatest thanks and pray for your guidance on this guardian path. Grant my senses clarity That I might see the peaceful way through dangerous times, hear the cries of those in need, and smell woodsmoke before the fire catches. Lead my hands as they shape a safer world, And lead my feet to the places where I might do the greatest good. Thank you, sentinels, for all you've given. Thank you for standing beside me, behind me, and before me, a circle completed as I step into place.
