“Because what Ash came to realize in all of this is that people died twice. The first time was when their body failed. The second was when their name ceased to be spoken.”

“An aspect of parenthood is learning that what you teach your children never expires. Parents share wisdom with their growing progeny, often when the child is not ready to hear that wisdom. But as that child ages, they can always turn to their parent’s teachings, no matter how old they are, or how much they may have strayed in their lives. As long as the parent was a good teacher.”
― J.M. Clarke, Mark of the Fool 9

“Real or not—happened or not—we basically always live in our own memories. Now only lasts a second—less, really—and then it’s just part of what we remember. Almost everything in our lives, the things that make us who we are, stem from what we recall.”
― J.M. Clarke, Rune Seeker 3
