“This is less of a 'the king needs a reason' thing and more of a 'the king loves burning shit and killing people' thing," Eric corrected.”
Drew Hayes, NPCs

“The whole justification for having such a bureaucratic system in the first place is so that balance is maintained, and so that one institution doesn't benefit at the expense of all others.

Like stars...”
Fuyumi Ono, The Twelve Kingdoms: Sea of Shadow
