First Ritual Quotes

“Isn’t that true of everyone? If we can trust a person will do what’s right in a tough situation, then we’ll always share a connection with that person.” Varden murmured, “For how can we trust, when we are unsure of a being’s capacity for kindness and decency? Once we become aware that one’s capacity for kindness is different to ours, is there any going back to what those two people might have been? Or do those two people merely trust each other in things up to that place where their decency and kindness differ? If so, is there any point in maintaining a trust with such a person or shall we abandon that relationship to seek out people with a closer capacity to ours?”
