“This is a fairytale. That is all it is. That is all anything worthwhile is. There are women, and devils, and the ocean, and the vast greenness of home. There are all the makings of a terrible virtuoso, smug on knowledge of the black and the earth, but there are no heroines. Only the story, the path like an awful thing of great unfurling. These are the choices we’ve made. These are the choices we live with.”

— Mabel, Episode Eighteen: Unusual Hungers written by Becca de la Rosa and Mabel Martin
