Patricia A. McKillip Quote

Morgon, I told you what I am; you could see what dark power I was waking in me—you knew its origins. You knew I am kin to those shape-changers who tried to kill you, you thought I was helping the man who had betrayed you—why in Hel’s name did you trust me? His hands, circling the gold crown on the skull, closed on the worn metal with sudden strength. I don’t know. Because I chose to. Then, and forever.
