“If marks of trauma lingered, any evidence was hidden by her robe. But Nesta knew well how invisible wounds could be. How they could scar as deeply and badly as any physical breaking.” TraumaWoundsSarah J MaasNesta ArcheronA Court Of Silver FlamesGwynGwyneth BerdaraMental TraumaMental Scars Book:A Court of Silver Flames Source: A Court of Silver Flames
“It wasn't only the cost of life that ripped and devastated and sundered. It was the altering of a soul with it- the realisation that I could perhaps go back home to Velaris, perhaps see peace achieved and cities rebuilt... but this battle, this war... I would be the thing forever changed. War would linger with me long after it had ended, some invisible scar that would perhaps fade, but never wholly vanish. But for my home, for Prythian and the human territory and so many others... I would clean my blades, and wash the blood from my skin. And I would do it again and again and again.” WarChangedBattleSarah J MaasFeyreFeyre ArcheronA Court Of Wings And RuinAlteringForever ChangedMental Scars Book:A Court of Wings and Ruin Source: A Court of Wings and Ruin
