"The chains that hold you are gone, broken by the battle. Fire and ice.  They have devastated everything, leaving destruction in their wake.  Everything is over, but you, a woman made of steel, are still here."
"What​​​ happens when they turn you into steel, a weapon to be used?  They tear you apart and rebuild you, to be cold as ice and implacable as the animal with no heart you pretend to be."
"The blue in her eyes, does not remind me of the sea, is much more than that.  It reminds me of the cornflower that grows in the field.  When I see them, it is as if I am seeing the inside of a storm, the strength and power of nature."
