“An action, in and of itself, is just the movement of objects. It is the earnestness, and the depth of feeling behind the action, that give it meaning.”
D.K. Mok

“As it turned out, the Plains of Despair were just west of the Stony Deserts of Agony, beyond the Moors of Brooding Desolation, past the Hills of Creepiness, the Meadows of Misfortune, and the Valley of Lost Shoes. Seris”
D.K. Mok, Hunt for Valamon
