1 " Mastema prefers absolutes. He wants fences on the world and everything in its place, neat and tidy as a churchyard garden. God is not like that. God is boundless. For all his wisdom, Mastema cannot comprehend Yahweh’s need for surprises. An omniscient Being would naturally yearn for things beyond His control, futures He could not see, wills He could influence but not command. Strange, yes. It is odd when the puppeteer desires his wooden slaves to cut their strings, yet that is exactly what He did when he granted humans free will. "

2 " Liall realized that this was the first time he had really been alone with Scarlet. He stood up and held out his hand. The blanket dropped from his shoulders. "Come here."Scarlet reached out to him tentatively and Liall quickly dragged him into his arms. He fits there perfectly, Liall thought, snug if not a little small. Scarlet did not respond at first, as if he would pull away, and for a moment Liall believed he had made a huge mistake. Then, surprisingly, Scarlet sighed and his arms went around Liall's back.

6 " Fear isn’t a very useful emotion for a warrior. Rage is better. "
7 " Instead of acceptance and understanding, we have gone the fool's way of being proud of traits we have achieved through no merit of our own, such as being born Rshani. "

8 " Know yourself, my lad. Know your strengths but know your weaknesses even more. Small men want misery for the whole world, to lessen their own. That’s why they take what’s not theirs and give harm in its place: to hammer you into what they are. Don’t let yourself be led by hate. "
9 " Change, the uninvited guest that destroys what once was. "
10 " What do you do when home is a person, Liall? Don't I have the right to fight for you? "
