Quote by Astrid Jane Ray

“Isydoris realized he would not rest until she told him the truth. She was too tired and mentally drained to continue playing this game. “It was Heeba herself,” she admitted in a quiet voice. “She said you would get tired of my skittish Atriyan ways and trade me for another woman.” Azhrael gasped an incredulous smile. “And you believe her?” “Why would she lie?” Isydoris shrugged. “She is one of the most beautiful women in the empire. I have seen the way men act around her. She has a lot of charm.” “And yet she is not the one who holds the status of my wife and the reighess of Aessarion,” he asserted firmly. “Trifling, is it not?”

“The presence of the shield feats can also arise in some cases of pathological jealousy. Here, the dreaded anti-feat would be infidelity, understood as anti-feat when it destroys pride and social prestige. One of the shield feats that would appear is the awareness. Here, the logic would be "aware" of infidelity operating as a consolation or compensation that serves to cushion the blow to the pride that infidelity brings. Therefore, this shield feat of awareness is the belief that infidelity has already occurred”

“Where does jealousy come from, if not an insecurity that I'll lose you because of him? But that's not how it works, no matter how many people believe it so. You're not something to be kept or taken, and love isn't some scarce resource to battle over. Love can be infinite , as much as your heart can open. I mean, when you think about it, love is fueled mostly by compatibility. Whether two people make each other happy by being close. So it'd be pointless of me to resent Shimin. However compatible you are with him, it doesn't have anything to do with how compatible you are with me.”
