I am a descendant of the Thoom,
although this is of small consequence for I have abandoned my Thoom family
name in favor of being known for my driving belief… which is to cause
harm to no living creature. Therefore, I have elected to hence forth be called,
Nohurt 
My doctrine is simple to learn... but
be warned, this is a hard path to follow
I will not cause harm to any
living creature; neither Human, nor Thoom, nor Fen’neko, nor Sylvan,
nor Hafling, nor Ghorak Zo, or Dwarf. Nor will I cause harm to the creatures
of the fields, the sky or the waters. I recognize no enemy among any living
creature… all are friends and I shall aid, heal and comfort all to the
best of my abilities
I
shall
relinquish all weapons and wonder the lands with open hands of peace and healing
I will spend the major part
of each day in prayer, meditation and in the study of the scrolls and books
that shall help my quest
I will ‘twirl’ in
ecstasy to show my joy in the beauty of this land and its creatures and to
come closer to my maker -- for to 'twirl' mimics the eternal, circular path
of life
I
will ‘twirl’ when I meet a brother or wherever brothers gather.
I will teach the joy of ‘twirling’ to any who wish to learn the
path… for ‘twirling’ is the start of the path
I
shall harvest from the land nuts, berries, vegetables,
fruits and grains to sustain my flesh and shall never consume the flesh of
another living thing
I shall take a vow of poverty,
chaste and humility
Work shall be my joy and I shall
make an offer for sale to any who wish it the ‘Liquor of Woodworm’…
to allow all the experience of the exalted, mystical-visions of the maker.
And, I vow that any proceeds shall go first to aid the needy and only after
that towards the maintenance and expansion of the order and the orders library
I recognize only one abomination
upon the land… the Undine! And, I pledge to be willing to give
my life in the quest to allow the Undine to find their everlasting rest
This is my Doctrine and I Pledge
to follow it until there is no longer breath nor life in my body and I am
returned to the ocean to nourish the cycle from which I come
