To the death with honor, shoulder to shoulder, and no one gets closer to a Stepson than his partner.
Janet Morris
Image
What doesn't bend must break, when dooms are apportioned and destiny takes the lead. As it will now, and as it must, until this struggle ends.

Image
Gods colliding, ethos and mythos trying to combine. The Sacred Band caught up in a whirlwind not of any god's devising: he and Niko had wanted to save twenty-three pairs of fated Theban fighters. Now everything feels fated and fighting oversweeps its boundaries of time and place and plane.

Image
Niko's angular face caught a flicker of firelight and Tempus saw his future there: sharp purpose, discipline, and power in perfect balance love of man and gods, and mercy transcending all. If war ever wore a more humane face, this one would make it so.

Image
Now the Fates are here on the beach, three shadows blacker than black, walking through the dunes and looking for their own. Just shadows, lamb-white hands beneath black robes spun of tears, glide among the celebrants on this night wherein the spirits of Thebes have found a home, if serendipitously.
Janet Morris
Image
For Tempus...was a dozen storm gods' avatar no army he sanctified could know defeat no war he fought could not be won. Combat was life to him he fought like the gods themselves.
Janet Morris
Image
Bandara was not an easy place to return to: it could hide from the common worlds whose periphery it inhabited. But Bandara never had, in all its years, completely disappeared.
Janet Morris
Image
What would the world be without him, and those like him?
Janet Morris
Image
Die never for a god, Nikodemos who should know better - not your soldiers' god, nor any other.
Janet Morris
Image
Wanting neither too much to live, nor too much to die.
Janet Morris
Image
Arrows are cheap you're expensive.
Janet Morris
Image
Use him wisely. Few have been given such a weapon by the gods or Fates before.
Janet Morris
Image
You count up your dead, every one. Always. Recall them, each and all - every face, every heart.
