“The darkness does not flow from my being to them, but out of their hearts and into my skin. I don't inspire your evil. I never did. You offer it to me, from the gravest crime to the smallest indifference.”

“Um novo Deus chegou a Vakhar.
A morte expulsou os deuses menores e ocupou todos os espaços vazios de seus templos.
Os hinos viraram gritos. A música, tiroteio.
As preces, gargantas sufocando, cheias de sangue.
Eu e o Balcã somos missionários.
Nossas oferendas transbordam.”
― Phil Hester, Deathstroke Annual #2
