The city guardsmen were like the keres, doom-bringers of merciless vengeance.
Janet Morris
Image
And as for death - we get what we expect.

You must become like yourself.

Don't blame yourself, or worry. Neither does a bit of good.

When the balance is restored, people get hurt.

I can start the rain. Bring thunder. Bring lightning. Want to see?

I'm just a weapon of the god.

Dreamers and dreaming dead, lots of them from neither here nor there with no chance of getting home again, lost in place and time.

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