Kindle Notes & Highlights
“The Vegas are a problem which I will solve without your help, boy. You’ve made it clear that your judgement has been impaired by them. But don’t worry, once you have time to adjust to the curse Roxanya has placed on you, I’m sure you’ll feel less inclined to shield her from anything. And once you’re ready to impart some revenge on her, I’ll be waiting to help. In the meantime, I think we should focus on my more immediate competition. It’s time I made progress towards claiming the throne for
myself. My grasp upon the shadows is improving. I need to prepare to rise above the other Celestial Councillors.”
How convenient that the irredeemable mastermind evil villain invited his obviously rebellious and wayward, heroic son with a loose NDA contract to sit in to on the read aloud of the lengthy and obscure secret evil plot.
“Look, sometimes we want to see the good in people we care about so much that we pretend it’s there, living under all the layers of cruelty. But the fact is, Diego, some people are toxic. And if you keep them in your life, they’ll poison everything good in your world until you end up being just like them. And that’s a far worse fate than going against the grain and making your own path. Even if that means you’re alone.”
