3 " I have a different idea of what bravery is."
"What-complaisance?"

He pondered this for a moment, his freckled nose crinkling.
"Yes. "

7 " He took a breath, then proclaimed, 'Lady Shaselle of Hytanica, I am in love with you.'
I burst into laughter, pulling my legs up to ease my aching stomach muscles. He rolled onto his side to look at me, propping his head up with his hand.
'I'm serious,' he insisted, grinning foolishly at me.
'You're drunk.'
'True, but even drunks can be in love. "

16 " Though I had fallen in love with Narian a long time ago, I was continually learning more about him. I'd always been familiar with his principles and his personality, but it was the little things that made a human being. Little things like how he was not accustomed to sharing his space-had I not been forced to hide in his bedroom during his exchange with the High Priestess, I would not yet have seen it. There are other things, as well. He was nearly fluent in three languages in addition to our own; he absolutely could not sleep on his back; and he didn't now how to handle being irritated with me. "

17 " If he didn't like you, Shaselle, it's probably because you could've beaten him in a fight any day. "

― Cayla Kluver , Sacrifice (Legacy, #3)

18 " We don't have marriage in Cokyri."
My eyebrows shot upward. "You don't have... marriage? Well then, how do you... I mean where... where do your children come from? "

― Cayla Kluver , Sacrifice (Legacy, #3)

19 " Narian scrutinised both me and the Queen, with eyes so deeply blue I could not break away from them. I was glad he was no longer questioning me, for those eyes made me want to tell him everything. At the same time, those eyes revealed something to me. Was he in love with Alera? "

20 " In the end, the best for which one could hope was to leave the world in better straits than existed on the day of your birth; to truly have lived. And oh, how Cannan, the Captain of the Guard, had lived. "
