    “Sky hummed a few bars, remembering the lilting, mournful notes. She hesitated, then haltingly began to sing:
    This song is from the crushed part of my heart.

    Sky`s voice, permantly scarred by the thornament she`d been forced to wear on warbler island as a child, was husky and pleasant, though it faltered with emotion now. She continued, half in a whisper as she trudged to the beat.

    The part that thrums reminders that you`re gone.
    I don't regret a moment of our days.
    But i won`t fall. I`ll be okay, you know.
    I`ve always been that way.

    As much as I wish you back with me,
    I`m still the same. My dreams remain.
    I don`t need a soul to know my name.
    And I`ll get on just fine- I always do.
    Alone and away.
    Alone and away.”

    “I'd rather die fighting to keep us free to do as we wish, fighting to be free to come and go as we please, fighting so we no longer need to hide. Fighting the fear that all of you were programmed since birth to have. Fighting against Quill's bigotry, which says brains and brawn are better, or more important, than creativity.

    Marcus Today”

    “I want to tell you a story, Alex."
    Alex nibbled on his bottom lip, waiting. Wondering now if Mr. Today really understood that Alex was turning him down.
    "Simber." The old mage said.
