“Fuck one flesh, one end, Harrow. I already gave my flesh to you, and I already gave you my end. I gave you my sword. I gave you myself. I did it while knowing I’d do it all again, without hesitation, because all I ever wanted you to do was eat me.”
― Tamsyn Muir, Harrow the Ninth

And most important, to dare to dream of better days while your current world was a living nightmare.”
― Kerri Maniscalco, Kingdom of the Feared
