Royal Blood. The Heart of the Raven: Part 1, Part 2

"We are all prisoners of fate. But sometimes epochs come, great epochs when the world changes. Look closely, and you will see the signs. You will see how people rise above destinies, and even gods bow before their strength, before the voluntary and reckless sacrifices in the name of another. How the struggle goes on to the last drop of blood, to the last breath and death in defiance — and fate retreats, and the preordination breaks. Such things never happen by chance. Look. Observe. Remember. It happens only when the world has already cracked and those are needed who will sew it back together."
