“No one else could share his quandary. His agonies were a mixture of shame, of loss fueled by profoundly rooted fury—solitary burdens he had carried with him like pockets of sorrow weighing him down, forcing him to become stronger. When the Devil was gnawing at him, he’d withstood the pain.”
Tom Baldwin, Macom Farm

Rick Riordan
“The Friday before winter break, my mom packed me an overnight bag and a few deadly weapons and took me to a new boarding school.”
Rick Riordan, The Titan’s Curse
