If I could, I’d take this knife and shove it between his ribs. But I doubt I’d find a heart. None of them had hearts. Not their leader, Shrike, or Mojin, the one I see the most, or Honor and Ruin, the ones I don’t see. The ones no one sees. They’re the ones who corrupt. They’re the ones who kill. They’re the ones who took my brother from me…Only I found a way to get to them now.
