“They did not hear Grimble, as he lay dying, chant in the true voice of the Boreal Owl, in tones like chimes in the night, an ancient owl prayer, “I have redeemed myself by giving belief to the wings of the young. Blessed are those who believe, for indeed they shall fly."”
― Kathryn Lasky, The Capture

“Legends were not only for the desperate. Legends were for the brave. (Soren)”

“The spell was simple and I'd said half of it before she even figured out that it was a spell.

Since you like bubbles so,
In a bubble you must go.
In that bubble you will stay
Till your bubbles go away.

Sound can't pass from inside out
Even if you scream or shout.
If you want to be set free, End your spell, that's the key”
― E.D. Baker, Once Upon a Curse
