Litany of Survival
Preserve the Veil, which ensures your survival
Shred the Wyrm's tentacles wherever they constrict you
Sever the Weaver's threads wherever they calcify chaos
Survive so that you may breed
Respect strength, exploit weakness
Conflict breeds strength
Build, steal and suborn to strengthen your breeding grounds
Trust your own kind before you trust outsiders
When someone is responsible for injustice, make sure someone pays
