Sarah J. Maas Quote

I stared at the nose I'd seen bleeding only hours before, the violet eyes that had been so filled with pain. Why? I asked.He knew what I meant, and shrugged. Because when the legends get written, I didn't want to be remembered for standing on the sidelines. I want my future offspring to know that I was there, and that I fought against her at the end, even if I couldn't do anything useful.I blinked, this time not at the brightness of the sun.Because, he went on, his eyes locked with mine, I didn't want you to fight alone. Or die alone.And for a moment, I remembered that faerie who had died in our foyer, and how I'd told Tamlin the same thing. Thank you, I said, my throat tight.Rhys flashed a grin that didn't quite reach his eyes. I doubt you'll be saying that when I take you to the Night Court.
