“I who travel under the dim seas, vext with a hungry heart, my thoughts, unburnish’d, store explosives like a contagion. Marred to the deepest degrees, I am a serpent of unknown origins, born amidst the dark, broad seas, I am a symphony, I am the broken light in many… Like leaves, I fall through and perish, like leaves —I turn, I decline, I grow from the bloodiest parts of me.”

— Channing H.M, The Monochrome of Darkness.

And sometimes I want to win. And sometimes I want to lose so badly I can taste it. To surrender everything I’m made of: the neat, fenced acres of my separateness— that little plot of land I’ve spent a life defending— to let go until there’s nothing left of me but that great vault we spoke of, its endless dark, its pitiless silence.

— Danusha Laméris, from “Worlds in Worlds,” Bonfire Opera

❛Where did you teleport in from?❜

❛Your right hook is more impressive than your magic.❜

❛I can practically taste the divination in the air.❜

❛That’s an illegal arcana you’re wielding.❜

❛Give me a moment, I just need to copy this spell down.❜

❛Of course it will work, it’s magic.❜

❛You know I can’t predict those sorts of things.❜

❛Is that supposed to be glowing like that?❜

❛These wards are pathetic.❜

❛You’re going to burn through your mana if you keep it up.❜

❛How do you feel about necromancy?❜

❛Try it. Catch lightning in a bottle.❜

❛Can’t you summon something to help us?❜

❛You shouldn’t read the tome, you have no idea where it will take you.❜

❛Were you just inside my mind right then?❜

❛Nobody said healing spells were gentle so just, bear with me a second.❜

❛What did you exchange for that power?❜

❛What did you just do to me?❜

❛Your aura is a little bright right now.❜

❛My dreams were strange last night.❜

❛Ugh, what’s that smell? Teleportation magic?❜

❛Do you hear that? Sounds like a spell gone off wrong.❜

❛Put down the weapon! It’s cursed!❜

❛I’m not against magic per se.❜

❛Ouch! I told you to keep that spell away from me until you get it right!❜

❛What’s that mark from?❜

❛We only have one chance at this ritual, it’s going to burn up our components whether it’s a success or not.❜ 

❛I need a crystal ball for that.❜

❛You’re losing control, just drop it before it’s too late.❜ 

❛This storm isn’t natural, it’s been summoned by someone.❜

❛So many curses, I’m so indecisive of which to use on you.❜

❛You’re going to need to offer more than that if you want my abilities to help you.❜

❛What do you mean you’re out of tricks?❜

❛Magic isn’t real.❜

❛You know, there’s probably an enchantment for that.❜

❛I’m not sure how the gods would feel about us dabbling in that magic.❜

❛I don’t sense anything nearby.❜

❛Did your shadow just… speak?❜

❛I heard that magic died out long ago.❜

❛You’re meddling with fate.❜

❛That kind of spell will leave you in unspeakable agony if cast incorrectly!❜

❛I’m rather attached to the old customs.❜

❛Does your god have nothing else to offer you?❜

❛Where did you learn to do that?❜

❛You’re delivering death too often with that magic, you ought to watch out for equivalent exchange.❜

❛This artifact is cursed.❜

❛So, what did you see in there?❜

❛Look, something’s happening with the mirror.❜

❛These components are too expensive.❜

❛The sigils! We need to dispel them!❜

❛I saw what you just did.❜

❛This will protect you, it’s enchanted.❜

❛That city fell to ruin, it was a testing ground for experimental magic.❜

❛It’s a text for a ritual but I can’t decipher its results.❜
