‘It would certainly make life more complete if one could believe in a grand plan for the universe. If we could be certain that evil men would receive judgement. However, I fear that life is not so simple. Wise men say that the universe is in a state of constant war, a battle between the Source and the forces of chaos. If that is true then chaos commands the most cavalry.’
– Nogusta, to Dagorian, Winter Warriors
‘How does evil grow? What makes it appear in a human heart, growing like a weed among blooms? I tell you. It is born from anger and injustice, from resentment and jealousy.’
– Kollarin, to the clan children, Ironhand’s Daughter
‘We all of us carry the seed of evil in our hearts and souls. Even the purest, even the most holy. It is part of the human condition, born into us. We cannot root it out. All we can do – at best – is prevent it from germinating.’
– Ustarte, to Skilgannon, The Swords of Night and Day
