idelle, abigail
ldelle, to Anne, 408: "You killed a friend of mine. Her name was Charlotte... and you did it for reasons that had nothing to do with her. There were men knew that would've killed you for me. I wanted to ask them. Had the money. But Max refused. I couldn't tell then if it was... because she was afraid of you. Wouldn't have blamed her. I was. Or if it was something else. But I respected her wishes. Obeyed when she said we'd protect you despite what you'd done. Do you know why? Because despite the world reminding her every day of her life that she's undeserving of being given anything by it, that she was unworthy of what little she'd managed to take from it... despite all of that, she never believeda word of it. That woman has been fighting the whole goddamn world since the day she was born. She's a breath away from winning that fight. For whatever reason, she wants to share the spoils with you. And you'd walk away. You killed my friend. I wanted you to know that."

Abigail, in 208: "From across an ocean, it is hard to know what the New World is. knew were the stories was told of monsters and valiant men sworn to slay them. But now that I've nearly traversed the ocean that separates New World from old, fear that the stories I've heard may have clouded the truth more than clarified it. It would seem these monsters are men-- Sons, brothers, fathers. And it would seem these men fear their own monsters-- An empire... a navy.. a king. My father. So much l've left behind me-- London, my youth, and comfortable stories. So much lies ahead in Charles Town-- A future and harder truths. I feel must face it honestly, bravely. I must face it as my father's daughter, and believe that in order to do that, have to tell these people that which I've kept from them. I have to tell them what I know."
