“That's because revenge isn't about healing, Temperance. It's about power. Control. You were powerless years ago, and taking your revenge was a way of reclaiming that control. But pain, whether it's inflicted on us or by us, doesn't just disappear. You've spent almost five years surviving on the need for retribution, but have you actually faced the grief underneath”

“a steely, focused look glints in his eyes — like he's gearing up for battle. Too bad for him that I'm not a warlord. I'm a lady. And I fight just like one.”

“The Heir and the Spare—there was no judgment about it, but also no ambiguity. I was the shadow, the support, the Plan B. I was brought into the world in case something happened to Willy. I was summoned to provide backup, distraction, diversion and, if necessary, a spare part. Kidney, perhaps. Blood transfusion. Speck of bone marrow. This was all made explicitly clear to me from the start of life’s journey and regularly reinforced thereafter.”

“I don't listen to shit like that, Red. Petty gossip? I couldn't give two fucks.
The only thing that interests me is blood, blades and my brothers.
You're not like other wimp's here anyway, Red. They're too afraid to move, to bleed, and to be free.
Where's fun in living like that?
Sometimes freedom means being the bad guy. Sometimes you gotta embrace the darkness they crate in you and make it your own.
Words can hurt, wounds can fester, but even the most broken of bones can heal again, Red.”
