“A wise woman once told me that long ago, a young warrior conquered death, so that we would never have to fear it again. All those we have lost--they are not gone. For we will see them again when the last curtain falls, and the great battle has been won. They'll be there, waiting for us, with their feet dangling in some wide, warm river in the midst of eternal spring, I suppose. Death really isn't so bad--just a doorway, really.”
― Ella Rose Carlos, A Long Lost Fantasy

“Fear is a sickness
And I cannot get infected
Can’t fall victim to critics
Or give life to rejection

“The Carrion.
There it was again: that strange word he had heard so often growing up. But just then he asked: “What is the Carrion?”
His father seemed pleased that his son had finally wondered aloud. “A place that teaches you the meaning of survival.”
In the quiet comfort of the family dining room, rich with the heady odors of exotic spices and long-simmered meats, the statement had no meaning. “Will I be afraid?” he said, again because he sensed he was meant to ask.
“If you know what’s good for you.”
“Could I die there?” he said, almost in self-amusement.
“In ways too numerous to count.”
“Would you miss me if I did die?” he asked them both.
His mother was the first to say, “Of course we would.”
“Then why do I have to go there? Have I done something wrong?”
His father placed his elbows on the table and leaned toward him. “We need to know if you are simply ordinary or larger than life.”
To the best of his ability, he mulled over the notion of being larger than life. “Did you have to go there when you were young?”
His father nodded.
“Were you afraid?”
His father sat back into his tall, brocaded armchair, as if in recall. “In the beginning I was. Until I learned to overcome fear.”
― James Luceno, Tarkin
