Magnus Flyte
“The cold war was over, but all the little games persisted. It was a good thing those puppets in the Middle East had been too busy grubbing around in their deserts to play any serious role in international espionage ... She took a calming moment to visualize the entire Arab world as a giant parking lot. Lovely.”
Magnus Flyte, City of Dark Magic

“You are the people who killed our people in Pahalgam. You are all terrorists”. They mocked them, “Even if we throw you into the ocean, there will be no one to speak out for you, because you are people with no nation”.”
Sheikh Gulzar-After Pahalgam Attack
