Every time I start to think I've got the hang of what's going on, a completely different storyline is introduced 😂
I have no idea where this is going but I'm intrigued!
Sometimes she thought that while Day-Father taught them many lessons, how to read, how to reason, even how to fight, that Night-Father had only one lesson to teach. He wanted Eldest to beat Tune. He wanted both of them to learn to hate.

‘Memory . . .’ When she hid from Night-Father she erased herself, not from her own mind but from his while she clung to the memory that she existed. The poison’s gift, if you survived it, wasn’t forgetting but remembering.

Strength, children, is often misunderstood because it is found in so many kinds. Every strong thing, if you turn it this way and that, will look like weakness from the right angle. And some things that are weak will show their strength in surprising circumstances.

Completing her revolution, she took the direction she least wanted to go in, letting her fear guide her. If something terrible was lurking out there , better to face it head on than to let it stalk her.

To be wholly without fear was to lack imagination, and imagination – though a two-edged sword – was important for survival.

Night came, too soon as it always did, and Father became the thing that hunted them.

He forced them to dig so deep that they erased not only their presence but their present, deleting who they were so that they could be further moulded to suit his purpose.

Day-Father used words, examples, slaps, and diagrams to make his points, Night-Father simply applied pressure, forcing them to quiet their souls, erase themselves, become nothing so that they might remain unnoticed while he passed by. With his howling and his cruel nails, his sniffing in the dark, wild laughter, and whispered threats Night-Father sought to make them bury themselves in the void.

Famine changes the way people look at the world. Things that would never have been considered foodstuffs become worth chewing on in the hope that they might be. Old leather might carry the savour of the cow. Perhaps what could be scraped from the bottom of barrels in the pantry still remembered the grain or pulses that were stored there.

She had always been of the opinion that you should enrage torturers. They were going to do their best to hurt you anyway. And they’d probably do the job less well when angry. Plus, you might as well have one last laugh.

She had considered bringing the heads from Debban’s hut and tossing them before her when challenged, but the brothers had been balding beneath their caps, and heads without hair were awkward to carry.
