die tomorrow not today tomorrow

It’s taken me a while to finish this but it was good I liked it. Didn’t wow me didn’t really do much. There were some beautiful phrases in here occasionally.

“I buried Jalaine next to Sylvey just as she had asked.”

“There is magic in everything, only you must watch for it. It does not come from spells or potions or the sky, not by special delivery of the gods. It is all around you.”

“Hold on to me, Kazi. Let me show you the stars.”

“Hold on to me, Kazi. I’ve got you. I won’t let go.”
“I know, Jase. I know.”

“The moon was a sharp scythe in the sky, smoky orange against a backdrop of stars. A reaping moon. Not enough light to expose us. We were shadows, trees, an army of spectres that were there, but not there at all.”

“A thousand times over, Kazi. I would marry you more than a thousand times over.”

“She didn’t make it. Jalaine is dead.”

“And Kazi is my wife!”

“Die tomorrow, Kazi, for everyone’s sake, die tomorrow. Not today.”
