“Chrysanthemum dew from the morning we both knew in life together moistens for me this autumn sleeves that I must wear alone.”
Murasaki Shikibu, The Tale of Genji

“To say that nothing is true, is to realize that the foundations of society are fragile, and that we must be the shepherds of our own civilization. To say that everything is permitted, is to understand that we are the architects of our actions, and that we must live with their consequences, whether glorious or tragic.”
Assassin's Creed Maxim
