To the high-most God, who is of the throne above, and to whom falls mastery of All Things, the mind, the blood and the tech ever after, we dedicate our service, and trust that, from him, and from the priests who serve at the Eight corners of his throne, we may inherit the knowledge of the Use of Fire, and the Forging of Devices, and the Making of All Things, so that, from the hands of our brotherhood, even to the last regeneration, we shall fashion the Secret Instruments and Weapons that will assure his eminence hereafter and provide for his Eternal Victory.

– Dedication scripture common to the lay-tech dynastic orders of Urdesh Forge World; also a recitation found, in variation, in a number of non-aligned, non-Imperial, and xenos cultures in the Sanguinary Worlds
