“It seemed too good a deal to be true, one little pomegranate tree for all the myriad blossoms in the world. How could she deserve life? Who ever deserved life? But you could not question such gifts. Elspeth had taught her this. There was no answer, only wondrous and inexplicable grace, and the only thing to do in return was simply to live.” — R.F Kuang
It seemed too good a deal to be true, one little pomegranate tree for all the myriad blossoms in the world.
How could she deserve life? Who ever deserved life?
But you could not question such gifts. Elspeth had taught her this.
There was no answer, only wondrous and inexplicable grace, and the only thing to
do in return was simply to live.
