Damn you, Whiskeyjack, what have you and Dujek cooked up? The Pannion Domin … why are we sparing a mole’s ass for some upstart zealots? These things burn out. Every time. They implode. The scroll scribblers take over – they always do – and start arguing obscure details of the faith. Sects form. Civil war erupts, and there it is, just one more dead flower trampled on history’s endless road. Aye, it’s all so bright and flushed right now. Only, colours fade. They always do. One day, the Malazan Empire will come face to face with its own mortality. One day, dusk will fall on the empire.
