“He does not forget—it has been a long time since he has been able to forget—that he is making his stand in the middle of a dying town in the midst of a wasting country, from which many have departed and much has been sent away, a land wasting and dying for want of the human names and knowledge that could give it life.”

“You blink, you lose that time for ever. You can’t even be sure how long that blink lasted. A moment, a thousand years. You can’t even know for sure that what you see now is the same as what you saw before. You can’t. You think it is. You tell yourself that, convince yourself of that. Just a continuation of everything you knew before. What you see is still there. That’s what you tell yourself. That’s the game of reassurance your mind plays. To keep things sane.
But think on that one blink—you’ve all known it—when all that you thought was real suddenly changes. From one side of the blink to the other side. It comes with bad news. It comes with soul-plummeting horror and grief. How long was that blink?
Gods below, it was fucking eternity.”

“No início me chamavam de princesa prateada, por causa dos meus cabelos longos e acinzentados, marca de toda a minha dinastia. Mas não demorou muito até que eu fosse conhecida como a princesa carmim. Ainda graças aos meus cabelos, que ficavam rubros com o sangue de nossos inimigos. Até hoje, ele continua em um tom pálido de vermelho rosado, um eterno lembrete de quem eu precisei me tornar para que meu povo fosse livre.”
