“Mothers are supposed to be weak, weepy creatures, women who give birth to their children and drift peacefully into death, but the Mother is none of those things. She's the brave one, the ruthless one, the witch who traded the birthing-chamber of the battlefield, the kitchen for the knife. Boadicea and heartless Hera, the mother who became a monster.” — Alix E. Harrow
