These are the words that Caine said, regarding our Progeny as he ruled in Enoch, as King. Hear the words of Caine Law-Giver: "Thou shalt not make Progeny against my will, and if you are given leave, then choose those Children of Adam well, think of them as your future Brother or Sister. Look to the everlasting night ahead, and know Auriel's Prophesy: that forever shall Childe rise up to slay Sire Know thou that, as in all things, the Father overcomes the Childe, the Mother her Daughter: Only through me will you come to Truth, Only through me will you come to Peace, Only through me will you come to Awake your Power. Know thou that the right of life or death, as it was in my times, will ever be the Sire's over the Childe's, for it has been set in Heaven as well as in this world, the way of things. My Father, Adam, over me, I, over you, You, my Children over the Progeny you get. Thou shalt not suffer your Childe to live If it is found that he killed one of your Brothers and has drunk his heart's blood. This is the Serpant's Way, and I will not abide it. Thou shalt not Embrace those who are unworthy. Thou shalt not use the Embrace as punishment, Neither shall you Embrace the youngest, who should live long before being brought into My family, so that the wisdom of our line will grow. Thou shalt not Embrace those who are diseased, insane or full of ill humors, for they will taint the blood. Never shall there be more Kindred of Caine than Kindred of Seth in a place, neither shall there be one of Caine for every three of Seth. All Chlider should learn form their Sire The Law and the Traditions, The Rites and the Customs, as I have given them to you. Thou shalt not Embrace the Moon-Beasts, for these should be outcast and called Abomination. Neither should you taste of their blood, for they are forbidden, they bring Death to our door. Embrace not the blood of the Enlightened, rather listen to their words, watch their actions, and move swiftly against them should they strike: a useful sword, but often too sharp. Taste not the blood of the Wild Ones, for it is Madness, neither should you Embrace them, for you would not survive it. Embrace not Love, for Love in my Embrace will grow cold, wither, and die.
These are the words the Caine said, regarding the Children of Seth, as he ruled in Enoch as King, Hear the words of Caine Law-Giver: "We are given Dominion over the line of Seth, third son of Adam, as he is our youngest Brother, we will watch over his children as if they are our own, we will show them th right way, and in return, they will serve us all of their days. They will serve us while the Sun rides the sky, and watch over our houses, with quenching water, against Michael's Fire. They will feed us, and provide us with clothes, They will dance for us, and provide us with song, They will lay with us, and provide us with comfort, They will advise us, and we will listen to their advice. They will worship us, and we must not allow their worship. Thou shalt not become as a God to the Children of Seth, for the One Above, growing jealous in his sky, will strike down the line of Caine forever. Remember gentle-faced Ashtereth, Remember golden-fat Baal, Remember strong Tammauz, Know thou that the Children of Seth will rise up with weapons from the One Above, and conquer us, should we be as Gods to them. Thou shall guide the Children of Seth as a shepherd guides his flock, and culls them as they are needed. Thou shalt cleanse their blood, and keep them all of them free from disease.
Find you a place that is yours, And the mortals who dwell there, let them be your sheepfold, let them be your cup, let them be your holy bread.
