I pledge this day my sword, my heart to build and help preserve; Although I live my life apart from those that I must serve. The laws of truth I will obey in every thought and deed, Stand fast while others turn away, uphold The Herald's Creed. I vow to heal the wounds I see as long as I shall live. My heart will guide me faithfully and teach me how to give, I'll render aid as best I can to those who are in pain And by the strength of my own hand restore the peace again. The deeds of those who lived before, have bound my life to theirs. Their legends open up the door and teach me how to care The touch of my Companion's thoughts bring friendship, song and joy. It is a bond that love has wrought and time cannot destroy. I swear to guard and keep the crown defending all that's just, No force will ever bring it down, this is our sacred trust. My path is clear before me now, my choices all are made In Honor's name I take a vow to face life unafraid. Upon my soul I make a vow this light will never fade.
