It’s perfectly safe. But we all know what happened last time. My mother came here with seven others, and one by one, they disappeared. All but my mother.
“It was like no kiss she had ever experienced, all of reality falling away behind them. The crackle, the spark, the scintilla, a rightness, a slotting together of two fated pieces, two equals, two halves of one whole.”

“My soul was on fire, and I didn’t care if I burned for all eternity. So long as I was burning with him, so be it.”

“Sixty minutes to an hour.
Twenty-four hours to a day.
These are mortal instruments, for mortal lives.
But when you live forever, time is something far less constant.
When you are happy, a decade rushes by.
When you are sad, a minute crawls.
When you are lonely and afraid, time seems to lose all meaning.
Blink, and a year is gone.
Blink, and it has only been a night.
Only, it is not a life at all.
It is a prison sentence.”
― Bury Our Bones in the Midnight Soil

“Aww don’t you? Haven’t you always wanted the power to destroy your enemies? You practiced with a sword until your hands were bloody. You built a wall around yourself, so you would be untouchable. But yes, you want more than power. I will grant you that. You want something far more interesting. Retribution. Revenge. That I understand very well. I can give you the power to destroy an empire. To eviscerate a man and take from him all that he loves. That is what you crave. Is it not?”
