I was Penellaphe of Castle Teerman, Kin of the Balfours, and the Queen’s favorite. I was the Maiden. Chosen.
I tried to prenounce Penellaphe at several times but my tongue literally tied. Interesting and compelling choice for heroine name. Chosen part intrigued me. Let's move on to see what makes our heroine so special!
“The ignorant learn from none,
the simple learn from some,
the intelligent learn from many,
but enlightened learn from all.
The arrogant learn from none,
the gracious learn from some,
the patient learn from many,
but the humble learn from all.
The disinterested learn from none,
the curious learn from some,
the keen learn from many,
but the disciplined learn from all.”

“My Dear,
Find what you love and let it kill you. Let it drain you of your all. Let it cling onto your back and weigh you down into eventual nothingness. Let it kill you and let it devour your remains. For all things will kill you, both slowly and fastly, but it's much better to be killed by a lover.
-Falsely yours”

“Truth is an honest saint,
ignorance is a helpless scholar,
vice is an uncaring sinner,
and love is a kind sage.
Knowledge is the path,
understanding is the way,
wisdom is the highway,
and enlightenment is the destination.”
