    “That was when they noticed that every musician on the stage was wearing mourning black. That was when they shut up. And when the conductor raised his arms, it was not a symphony that filled the cavernous space.

    It was the Song of Eyllwe.

    Then Song of Fenharrow. And Melisande. And Terrasen. Each nation that had people in those labour camps.

    And finally, not for pomp or triumph, but to mourn what they had become, they played the Song of Adarlan.

    When the final note finished, the conductor turned to the crowd, the musicians standing with him. As one, they looked to the boxes, to all those jewels bought with the blood of a continent. And without a word, without a bow or another gesture, they walked off the stage.

    The next morning, by royal decree, the theatre was shut down.

    No one saw those musicians or their conductor again.”
    Sarah J. Maas, Heir of Fire

    “Once upon a time,” she said to him, to the world, to herself, “in a land long since burned to ash, there lived a young princess who loved her kingdom . . . very much.”

    “She moaned into her pillow. "Go away. I feel like dying."
    "No fair maiden should die alone," he said, putting a hand on hers. "Shall I read to you in your final moments? What story would you like?"
    She snatched her hand back. "How about the story of the idiotic prince who won't leave the assassin alone?"
    "Oh! I love that story! It has such a happy ending, too—why, the assassin was really feigning her illness in order to get the prince's attention! Who would have guessed it? Such a clever girl. And the bedroom scene is so lovely—it's worth reading through all of their ceaseless banter!”

    “There was a poem scribbled at the top of the Ashryver family tree, as though some student had dashed it down as a reminder while studying.

    Ashryver Eyes
    The fairest eyes, from legends old
    Of brightest blue, ringed with gold


    Bright blue eyes, ringed with gold. A strangled cry came out of him. How many times had he looked into those eyes? How many times had he seen her avert her gaze, that one bit proof she couldn't hide, from the king?

    Celaena Sardothien wasn't in league with Aelin Ashryver Galathynius.

    Celaena Sardothien was Aelin Ashryver Galathynius, heir to the throne and righful Queen of Terrasen.”

    “He removed her hand from his cheek to kiss the tips of her fingers. “I get scared, too,” he murmured onto her skin. “You want to hear something ridiculous? Whenever I’m scared out of my wits, I tell myself: My name is Sam Cortland … and I will not be afraid. I’ve been doing it for years.”
    It was her turn to raise her brows. “And that actually works?”
    He laughed onto her fingers. “Sometimes it does, sometimes it doesn’t. But it usually makes me feel better to some degree. Or it just makes me laugh at myself a bit.”

    The only sounds were their breathing, an uneven beat against the rushing of the sewer river.
    "You're a damned idiot," she breathed, grabbing the front of his tunic. "You're a moron and an ass and a damned idiot." He looked like she had hit him. But she went on, and grasped both sides of his face, "Because I'd pick you."
    And then she kissed him.”
    Sarah J. Maas, The Assassin's Blade

    “He brushed his lips against hers. “I love you,” he breathed against her mouth. “And from today onward, I want to never be separated from you. Wherever you go, I go. Even if that means going to Hell itself, wherever you are, that’s where I want to be. Forever.” Celaena”

    “He moved to sniff some white-and-yellow flowers.
