The Silent King Quotes

“him. He had connections here, of course, and that was the problem. His mind sensed the lives lost to make the unlovely Dawn of Fire, the many thousands of humans living in squalor required to keep it running. No matter how comfortable he made his chambers, and there were definite limits to that, he felt as if he were dwelling in a pavilion erected upon a platform, and though the pavilion was very fine, beneath the platform squirmed piles of vermin feeding desperately upon each other in the dark.”
― Guy Haley, The Silent King
