Blood of the Creed

Only the trusted few shall stand,

To man this city's walls.

We must not shrink from duty,

The Guardians must stand tall.

…

Every moment matters,

Every blow must count.

The odds are stacked against us,

But they're odds we must surmount.

…

Hope shines brightest in the dark,

And we Guardians bear the light.

Standing firm against our foes,

Not shrinking from the fight.

…

We will take back which long was lost,

Reclaim our place among the stars.

Drive our foes from our domain,

Against them we will spar.

…

We'll make the city safe again,

And our planet too.

And indeed are own home system,

We all know this to be true.

…

This is our hope, this is our dream,

The Traveler brought us time.

Now we'll make good on its sacrifice,

We'll defend humankind.

…

This is our common goal,

Unity's what we need.

This is what unites our factions,

It is the Guardians' creed.

A/N

Possibly apparent, but the lines were this were based on the tweets for the Alpha Lupi viral campaign. Little bit of fun/challenge, and to write something that isn't as obscure as...well, take your pick. Go by the 'entries=planets' idea myself, but that's beside the point I guess.
