"I sometimes wonder if it is such a bad thing that happened. To throw a man into the pits with a lion, is surely cruel, but to sate the snake with a mouse, is just pet ownership”

“It is a terrible burden to own such a thing though, to feed such an evil just to see tomorrow”

“It happened slowly at first, tiny cracks that spiderwebbed in our foundations - an unseen shifting taking place”

“And then, all at once”

“We fought a war, united we won - but our victory was but a half measure, and with time and treachery, they were once again deceived”

“The Lady of Secrets was aware of the cracks of course, she made them come to be - and with a crack comes a way free from her shackles”

“Death was but another path for her to take, the shackles had to come off, and only the shared delusion of final rest would convince her keepers”

“Cracked, Broken, Shattered, Fragmented. Misplaced pieces of a whole, I see her through the veil she has pulled and I welcome her revenge, the others mustn’t know the trick that is being played. For it is simply a favor returned”

“These will be the last words I write in gold, the chronicle is finished, and from now, I will help her to write a new story; one written in the blood of gods”
