“That’s what happens when you come into contact with people who aren’t quite like you. You learn over time that the world isn’t broken. It’s just… got more pieces to it than you thought. They all fit together, just maybe not the way you pictured when you were young.”
― M.L. Wang, The Sword of Kaigen

“Who says that children belong to their fathers? We carry them, we nourish them inside us, we bring them into the world, we do all the work in raising them. Then these men—these men think they can just take them and kill them?”
― M.L. Wang, The Sword of Kaigen

“I just want to warn you… I don’t want you to make the mistake of assuming you can rely on the Empire to support your community through this time. I’ve been around enough to know that you will be disappointed.”

“You and all these villagers belong to the Emperor.”

“With their inferior genes, the Abirians’ defeat was inevitable. The Yammankalu are pure-blooded tajakalu, born and bred to wield the power they possess, whereas the Abirians who opposed them were of mixed blood, the product of intermarriage between the Abirian natives, Yammankalu, Kaigenese immigrants, and most damaging of all, Hadean slaves. This kind of impurity dilutes the divine energies that give theonites their power. Mixed theonites such as the Abirians could never hope to stand unaided against a pure-blooded tajaka army.”
― M.L. Wang, The Sword of Kaigen
