“The sacrifices made in this war would have to be enough. Malini was monstrous enough to seize a throne and murder a brother. She was monstrous enough to continue the glorious, bloody cruelty of empire. She had made herself so.
She would choose now to be monstrous enough to let an enemy live, for the sake of keeping what was hers. She would choose love over goodness.
Let future generations face the yaksa once more. Let the rot continue. Only, let me have her.”
― Tasha Suri, The Lotus Empire

“No woman should be made to fear that she was not enough.”
