What would the world be without him, and those like him?
Janet Morris
Image
Wars don't bring lasting peace, only lasting death.
Janet Morris
Image
Don't forget, Riddler, how I love thee. Or all we shared together. Or that this sea and all other seas can lead you back to me.
Janet Morris
Image
The city guardsmen were like the keres, doom-bringers of merciless vengeance.
Janet Morris
