”You forgot me. After all those years of fighting to get the hell out of that place and you forgot me.”
”I don’t have a name. Well, I did once, and then someone ruined it.”
I never had a family to teach me how to love, perhaps I never will.
"I have lived my entire life without needing you, and all the sudden I don't think I can live without you."
"Please! Please come back! I can't do this on my own! You were supposed to be there with me!"
"Some people are born to die, and no more."
"Forget me. Forget everything her. Just go, save yourself, even though you can't save us!"
"I don't know why I thought coming here would make me feel better, but I brought you some flowers, maybe it'll make this graveyard a little more livable. You were never one for the color black anyways."
"Teach me how!" "I can't!" "Why." "Because they ripped it away from me, I couldn't even summon a candle flame, ok! When I say they took everything from me, I mean everything!"

"That girl was a monster-" "That girl taught me that I meant something to someone!"
I've lived through countless battles, fought countless wars, and all it took was a soft smile and a gentle girl to end this eternal life of mine.
Nobody should have to watch their childhood hero die in their arms.
Ravens circles the scarred building I once called home. I turned away and let them have their loot, it was of no use to me now, I had nothing to fight for anyways.
Home. What a funny word. Too bad I would never know what it felt like to say it aloud.
