“Nothing is where you start. Own nothing. Know nothing. Be nothing.” “Why would I want to do that?” The old man crushed out his cigarillo on the boards between them. His smile made her smile in return. “Because then you can do anything.”

“Let's go, Violet Sorrengail.' He lifts his head, and the golden dragon peeks out from under his wing.
'How do you know my name?' I gawk up at him.
'And to think, I'd almost forgotten just how loquacious humans are.' He sighs, the gust of his breath rattling the trees. 'Get on my back.'
Oh. Shit. He's choosing... me.
'Get on your back?' I repeat like a fucking parrot. 'Have you seen you? Do you have any idea how huge you are?' I'd need a damned ladder to get up there.
The look he gives me can only be described as annoyance. 'One does not live a century without being well aware of the space one takes up. Now get on.”

“Did you step in?' Dain demands.
'Did I what?' Xaden arches a dark brow and levels a look on Dain that would make a lesser person wither. 'Did I see her outnumbered and already wounded? Did I think her bravery was as admirable as it was fucking reckless?' He turns that stare on me, and I feel the impact all the way to my toes.
'And I would do it again.' I raise my chin.
'Well-the-fuck-aware,' Xaden roars, losing his temper for the first time since I met him on Parapet.
I pull in a quick breath, and Xaden does the same, as if he's just as shocked by his outburst as I am.
'Did I see her fight off three bigger cadets?' His gaze pivots to Dain. 'Because the answer to all of those is yes. But you're asking the wrong question, Aetos. What you should be asking is if Sgaeyl saw it, too.”
