      And fields green and still.
      
      This land of long-abiding joy
      
      Home of the strong and brave
      
      Renowned by all, across the realms,
      
      And never once a slave.
      
      O sing a song of Elturel
      
      When foes are at her door
      
      Her fields torn by cloven feet
      
      From some infernal shore.
      
      Arise the mighty Hellriders
      
      Take up your swift, keen swords
      
      Then charge into the hellish fray
      
      And scatter devil hordes.
      
      O sing a song of Elturel
      
      And when the night does fall
      
      Sleep safe beneath Companion's light
      
      Until the dawn does call.
      
      We're bound by mortal covenant
      
      That only ends with death
      
      And so we'll sing of Elturel
      
      Until our final breath.

    Be it known to all that I, Thavius Kreeg, High Overseer of Elturel, have sworn to my master, Zariel, lord of Avernus, to keep the agreements contained in this oath.
    
    I hereby submit to Zariel in all matters and for all time. I will place Her above all creatures, living and dead. I will obey Her all my days and beyond with fear and servility.
    
    I recognize the dispensation of the device called the Solar Insidiator, hereafter called the Companion. In my capacity as High Overseer of Elturel and its vassal territories, I acknowledge that all lands falling under the light of the Companion are forfeit to Zariel. All persons bound by oath to defend Elturel are also considered forfeit. I further recognize that this dispensation will last fifty years, after which the Companion will return whence it came, taking Elturel and its oath-bound defenders with it, if that is Zariel's wish.
    
    All this is my everlasting pledge.
