Book of Light

The Book of Light was a holy text written by Sol Aramis to spread the word of the infection. There is only one precept currently available and it is a description of the author's experience getting infected and becoming a Husk. It should be noted that it is unknown whether the Preaching of the Infection is in this book or not.
“I wasn’t always affixed to the light. Many, many years ago, I followed a different path, one of blind darkness. Me and my peers worshiped the Shade Lord, and tried to harness the power he left upon our world. We believed that, by dedicating our lives to his worship, he would grant us the strength to harness his remnants. Prayers, Offerings, Rituals… All done in his name. They were foolish to believe that they would be given anything by a being who only takes.”
“It had been 30 Years into this endeavour. My peers continued with ceaseless vigour, still blind to the truth of the darkness. My faith had waned away. I had given up on my efforts, bitter and angry. Surely, SURELY, there must be another way to Power!”
“And that’s when a voice spoke from my mind. It offered me advice, advice that would change my life forever.”
“The Strong do not wait for opportunity, The Strong Pursue It.”
“Many emotions washed over me. Hope, Fear, Mainly Confusion. Had this been the Shade Lord? The voice was quick to correct me.”
“The Darkness Does not Give, Only Take.”
“I then asked the voice, if not of the Darkness, then of what?”
“I am Salvation. I am Generosity. I am The Light.”
-Sol Aramis
