People spend so much time wondering why the women don’t leave. Where are all the people who wonder why the men are even abusive? Isn’t that where the only blame should be placed?

“You acted fearlessly. Each time I saw you. You interested me, and I hadn’t expected that. I didn’t want that. But at that lake, you were just Seraphena. And I was just Ash. There was no deal. No perceived obligations. You stayed simply because you wanted to. I stayed only because I wanted to. You let me touch you because that was what you wanted, not because you felt as if you had to. Maybe I should’ve told you, but I was…enjoying myself with you. I wasn’t ready for that to end.”

“Let me ask you a question. Would you have followed through if you never learned that killing him would not have saved your people?”
I opened my mouth. The word yes slithered up my throat, but it didn’t go any further than that. It wouldn’t go past my tongue because I didn’t know if I would have. I couldn’t say yes.
“That’s why. I think he knows that, too.”

“From the desperation of golden crowns and born of mortal flesh,
a great primal power rises as the heir to the lands and seas, to the skies and all the realms.
A shadow in the ember, a light in the flame, to become a fire in the flesh.
When the stars fall from the night, the great mountains crumble into the seas, and old bones raise their swords beside the gods,
the false one will be stripped from glory until two born of the same misdeeds, born of the same great and Primal power in the mortal realm.
A first daughter, with blood full of fire, fated for the once-promised King.
And the second daughter, with blood full of ash and ice, the other half of the future King.
Together, they will remake the realms as they usher in the end.
‘And so it will begin with the last Chosen blood spilled,
the great conspirator birthed from the flesh and fire of the Primals will awaken as the Harbinger and the Bringer of Death and Destruction to the lands gifted by the gods.
Beware, for the end will come from the west to destroy the east and lay waste to all which lies between.”

“You interest me because there seems to be little time between what occurs in your head and what comes out of your mouth. And there seems to be little regard for the consequences.”
