“Aiding the Profane may be the best investment I’ve ever made. They’re the perfect enemy to unite Uther against.”“Yes, but are you sure this is the best way to build support? Destruction and casualties under Galvin’s watch will turn the people against him, won’t it?”

To think that the monster that killed Leonard was a whore from the Knight’s Sheath! Saved me all the trouble of doing it myself and framing the Profane! Fate smiles upon me! Cyrilo and Noah ruined my life, and I swear, I’ll get my vengeance on them if it’s the last thing I do! It’s only a matter of proper timing.”

Seraph was staring deep into the flames, into the light and warmth, but all he felt inside was cold darkness.
