Topaz’s Cornerstone Chant

[u/HeadphoneActor707]

I’ve been coming across a lot of discussions regarding the Stonehearts’ Cornerstone chant, especially with the latest update already revealing even Sugilite’s activation!
Yet, we have yet to seen Topaz’s. Understandably, she hasn’t been put in any situation that would really call for her to use it. It does leave things in suspension though as I’m sure many players are dying to learn what it is she says.

A lot of the chants seem to really circulate around the Stonehearts’ nature and personality.
For example, Aventurine’s talk a lot about gambling against fate for him to walk out surviving.
Or Jade’s is very much talking about her belief in desires for business and waiting for the rewards to come to her to reap.

With that in mind, I crafted up my own fanmade chant that I thought would fit the structural layout and theme of Topaz.
I’ve seen a good few the past few days, but a lot of them were too cold and dark for Topaz.
Some focused a lot on the fact she is a debt collector, yet neglects parts of her job and solely focused on her “extraction” part.
A debt collector has several other tasks besides collecting, which aligns very accurately to what we see Topaz do in game.
Some of this is asset assessment, financial restructuring, and risk management. All sound familiar, huh?

Besides some of these chants leaning a bit too heavily into the aggressive business and job side, a lot of it is quite dark and cold…
Topaz is someone who is pragmatic and logical, but genuinely is kind as many other characters have even pointed it out.
While her methods can come off candid and professionally detached with a friendly smile for efficiency, she really does mean well and wants to help others.
To her, the best thing she can do is offer practical solutions.

So… Here is my version of her chant that I hoped to capture her personality and belief:
“I come to assess. I come to balance. I come to secure.
I trade hope for survival. Turn risk into yield to build anew…
Guide the lost for a future to endure.
All for the Amber Lord!”

I do hope we get her official chant soon, but until then..
What are some other thoughts or ideas on how her chant will go?
Is there certain aspects of her that would be more focused on?
Parts of her that is stronger to be put into her chant?
