Raydorn: The War in the Black (Chapter 40)

“The gods are not kind to people like us, the gods are not kind to anyone.” Malum Chun, 448 A.C.A. “I’m going to Cloudtower.” They had barely gotten into the tent before Jack broke the silence.

“The generals get all the credit for winning battles they watch from the sidelines.” Henry Lockley, the Bard of the Song, 445 A.C.A.

“Not enough men hug each other. Get over yourselves.” Henry Lockley, the Bard of the Song, 438 A.C.A. “Your sword can’t be that interesting to look at.” Malum ignored Andy as he inspected his sword.

Raydorn: The War in the Black (Chapter 33)

“No one who competes should ever admit they’re not in first place.” Andelyn Stella, 449 A.C.A. How is he not terrified? Andy asked herself.
