"Ryanna Summit became a child of the bad revolution—the owner of a mind that had been blown up like minefields deep in the sand. War had planted bullets like seeds, and roses grow from the bruises of my blood, proudly wearing their armour of thorns. It all fit hand in hand with the endless consumption of black market liquor which turned my veins from rivers to streams, narrowing with addiction and anger." - Ryanna Summit [Azaleah] D7F

("It's not real, don't worry - your favorite will win this time.")" - Myara Lowe [Avalon] D10F
