We wear bronze because it is the pure element, and it alone has the power to ward against the powers of the void. When Gielinor proceeded from the Holy Essence, which is The Bronze, only the pure element, which is elemental bronze, remained whole (and the purest of all is alone whole, for that which is not whole is impure, and that which would tear away at the existence of even the part is corrupt), and the rest of all the elements arose in such a manner as when light shines through a prism and is separated into many colors, each having their particular qualities and affinities. And each element is proper in its place for this or that, but none resonate with the Holy Essence in the manner of the pure element. It would later happen that elemental bronze would be split in twain, manifesting in the world as the sister elements. It lost the power it once had, and this remains true even when the halves are restored, for the time of its restoration has not come. Even so, to those who are of our order and who do wear armor made of elemental bronze, it has great power because of the Blessing of Kristy. And this power is not against corporeal forces, but against the spiritual–against the attacks of malevolent spirits and the like. Only armor made from elemental bronze is able to withstand the spiritual powers of Dagon (who is The Darkness) and his demon hordes. But woe to those who are outside of our order, for the Blessing of Kristy is not upon them!

It is said that snow is the tears of Kristy, who is that incarnation of The Bronze who returned again into The Bronze. In our hands, when we call it forth and gather it, it has great power to subdue evil spirits and demons. Its effects are spiritual, and its power cannot be seen by mortal eyes. Seek knowledge in the Thirteenth (XIII) Revelation of the Prophet concerning this matter.

While fishing is in the ordinary sense is forbidden and is an exceedingly great evil, Bronze Clan members may do so if they first recite a prayer that will translate the Piscine souls contained within the aquatic life they draw up into heavenly realms in order that they may return to the cycle in peace. This we do out of respect, and to not disturb their rest. Remember, fishing is forbidden in excess, and it is to be a thing done only by those who have need. “I call upon The Bronze to release these noble souls unto heavenly realms! May they be caressed by the eternal ether. May they return again into the cycle, and may they wait for the day of restoration!Amen!” Be warned! Without all properly aquatic life, the souls of the Piscines could not remain, for they have an affinity with the water, hence why Kristy sealed them there. And if all Piscine souls are gone, Sorenth (falsely called Gielinor), will crumble into the void. This is the will of The Darkness, by whom all those who are not of our order are blinded, and cannot but serve and destroy. *Note that a shorter variation of this prayer may be recited according to one’s own discretion. Note also that it is preferable that clan members fish on worlds other than 301, as the wicked gather in greater numbers in 301 and dark influences are therefore stronger. And lastly, this prayer of release is only effectual for those initiated into our order.
