Use him wisely. Few have been given such a weapon by the gods or Fates before.
Janet Morris
Image
Be polite to all, friendly to none. Be professional. Be ready to kill everyone and everything.
Janet Morris

I don't want to be any closer to the gods than death will bring me.

What we hold sacred is honor, justice, and glory. You need not swear allegiance to our storm god, to serve with us. Fighters are among us from many lands, with many gods and many beliefs. Believe as you will. What is between a man and his god is theirs alone to say.

Janet Morris
Image
It's all the same - no good without evil, no balance...no maat. If we lose one, we lose the other. It's just life, that's all.
Janet Morris
Image
What wastrel mankind destroyed takes time for nature to put to rights.
Janet Morris
Image
Some nights, valor and cold purpose aren't enough.
Janet Morris
Image
Don't blame yourself, or worry. Neither does a bit of good.
Janet Morris
Image
Death is a doorway, Niko, that leads to an adventure greater than any you have ever known.
Janet Morris
Image
There must be love, and understanding, to betray. Most men haven't the wit or the honor for betrayal: not to know it when they see it not the stomach to apprehend it as they do it. Most men, blind and dumb in their self-centeredness, don't betray: they merely disappoint.

There are stranger things here than Thebans know about.

If it was true today, it might be untrue tomorrow.
