"You are all l've ever needed. Your strength. And your weakness."
"I will always come for you, Faraine. No matter how far you go, no matter what darkness you face. I will come. And I will stand beside you."
Vor has to be one of the nicest King's ever. He was one big walking giant green flag the whole time. I like to tell myself I was more enraptured than Faraine was with Vor. I liked most of the characters. The world building was really interesting. I enjoyed the crystal magic system throughout this series. I'm looking forward to reading the branch off series Warbride.
