"All beauty comes from ashes.
Many believe the end comes by fire. Others like to think it comes by storm. The truth is, as in all matters, not easy to discern. For the fire that slays many men, often tends to make ashes of only a few, and scorched remains of plenty more. And the storm that embellishes the souls of all men, makes warriors of a handful of them, and villains of the rest.
Thus, not all ends are in ashes.
Those that become ashes, will soon be swept up to be remade into something beautiful.
So, when touched by either a storm or a fire again, he will not bow, bend, or break… but return to take back what is his by birthright."
