When the gods left the earth, they ascended to heaven. However, there were those who stayed behind, and they came to be called dragons. In time, the souls of the humans began to desire the unlimited power that would have kept them at the top of the tower of power. So the dragons disappeared from the earth's vastness. The humans' short leash on each other destroyed the era of harmony and began a period of wars and losses. The years would pass, and it would all come to nothing. But the wave which rose in the past will some day reach the coast with the tempest. One day, while collecting herbs, the adepts found a block of ice in a cave with an unknown man chained to it. When he came to, he realised that it had been more than a year since the last time he had remembered anything. Long forgotten by everyone, he begins to search for the memories lost to time. Little by little, he became the man of whom the prophets spoke — the man who would lower the rope of the guillotine over the heads of the sinners who thought they were Gods.

Those were the words I needed to hear, the ones I gave up hoping for long ago." He looked at her, his gaze softening with sympathy. “And you don’t seem like someone who’s ready to free herself from that guilt.” “Someday, maybe. But not yet.

Lord Brodie the fat man retorted. *** Given her past atrocities in her life, it was almost hypocritical for Annabeth to call someone else a witch or a b*tch but what's a little hypocrisy going to matter to someone who killed children too simply out of fear that they would try to get revenge on her since she had killed their parents. *** "If you're going to make an entrance, make it a dramatic one," "If you can't make it dramatic then don't make an entrance at all." *** "I'm not saying getting broken is okay, but it's something that can happen to anyone. What matters is what you do with those broken pieces afterwards." " No matter how many times you break, I will pick up those pieces for you.
