“Father has always claimed I am created from humors that favor clarity and resilience. “You’ve an instinct, Ember, to see clearly. Follow that. Don’t diminish it by fear. The resilience that twins such clear vision is a grace, for it will see you through the knocks and twists of life while your clarity leads you right. Hold to it.”
Beth Brower, The Beast of Ten

“You’re not the usual beauty, spending all her bloom in hardly a handful of years. Some girls are like that, all flimsy flash, set to wear out into plainness as they age. But your loveliness is that of a sage. It is well set and will only increase. You’ve a steadiness of countenance worthy of the courts three hundred years ago, the courts he knew well.” She shakes her head.”

“But I do know that these lanterns wouldn’t be half so remarkable were they not set in darkness. Dispelling darkness is the province of light.” I hold his gaze but don’t answer. “Light is the only thing that grows stronger when darkness deepens,” he continues as he goes back to his work. “It is the way of things.”

“It is deep night, and I sit before the fire in my room. I am unable to anchor myself to—or find myself in—this fate. My mind has no solid ground. This inability to feel what is real has caught me off my guard. I feel so distant from myself. I’ve been taken out of the familiar, taken away from home and family.”
Beth Brower, The Beast of Ten

“Along with what Father calls my insight and resilience is a rather bad habit of meeting my fate head-on. Days when Hadspen and Thry had accompanied me into some small patch of mischief, it was always I who confronted Father afterwards, anxious for my consequence to be decided. Better to have knowledge of what lies before me than a false hope of lessening the blow by running away from its swing.”
Beth Brower, The Beast of Ten
