“Magic ran between them like a current, a cord, and he wondered who she would have been if she’d stayed in Grey London. If she’d never picked his pocket, never held the contents ransom for adventure.

“In myths, the hero survives.
The evil is vanquished.
The world is set right.

This is not a myth.”
― V.E. Schwab, A Conjuring of Light

― V.E. Schwab, A Conjuring of Light
