"Shattered by the Queen of Terrasen. Your ... ally."

"My friend."

He craned his body around hers to peer at her face. "Is she truly?"

"She is a good woman," Nesryn said, and meant it. "Difficult, yes, but... some might say the same of any royalty."

"Apparently, she found the former King of Adarlan so difficult that she killed him."

Careful words.

"The man was a monster--and a threat to all. His Second, Perrington, remains that way. She did Erilea a favor."

"She is truly that powerful?"

Nesryn debated the merits of the truth or downplaying Aelin's might.

"She and Dorian both possess considerable magic. But I would say it is their intelligence that is the stronger weapon. Brute power is useless without it."

"It's dangerous without it."

Fun Fact:

It turns out Genghis Khan, former Khagan of the Mongol Empire, may have done some good for the planet...

He did more to combat global warming than any of us ever will. Between 1162 and 1227, Genghis Khan and his Mongolian armies conquered around 22% of the Earth's surface, killing as many as 40 million people. But he also cut 700 million tons of carbon emissions while doing so. By lowering the population of the world by as much as 10%, he allowed huge portions of cultivated farmland to return to their natural forested state and absorb carbon from the atmosphere.

tower of dawn: THE KHAGANATE SIBLINGS of the SOUTHERN CONTINENT 

My bloodline, though … It’s hard to love one another, when we will one day contend with each other. Love cannot exist without trust.

On this day in 1215, Kublai Khan was born. The third son of Chinggis Khan's fourth son Tolui, he officially became Great Khan in 1264, completing the conquest of China by 1279, but due to the division of the Mongol Empire only had nominal rule over the rest of the Khanates, and the campaigns launched near the end of his -Japan, Burma, Indonesia and Vietnam- ended with failure and humiliation. After the deaths of his heir Jinggim and his favourite wife Chabi, Kublai fell into alcoholism and obesity, finally dying in 1294. For such a long life, few of his successors would reign more than a couple years and the Mongols were pushed from China in 1368.
