I thought of betrayal and how it came so easily - in a word, a glance, a gesture.

I know it's hard for you to trust me. If I ever find the man who did this to you, who made you so frightened, I'll kill him with my bare hands. But you can trust me.

Don't you long for something different to happen, something so exciting and new it carries you along with it like a great tide, something that lets your life blaze and burn so the whole world can see it?

I wish- I wish I could dry these tears, I wish I could make this better for you. But I don't know how.

Stronger than iron crueler than death sweeter than springtime it lives beyond breath

Because if I see you defeated, then I think I will see Alban defeated, and if that happens, none of us can go on. To guard you is to guard the heart of this land of ours.

Good and bad; shade and sunlight, there's but a hair's breath between them. It's all one in the end.
