“She was breaking apart. Her heart was unfurling like a flower awakening to sunlight, her ribs expanding, her head splitting open like that of Zeus when Athena sprang full-formed. She couldn't scream this time, because she had no breath, no lungs, no tongue. The kernel of magic inside her had opened, and it was flooding her body like salt water or light.” — H.G. Parry
