“In my errant life I roamed
To learn the secrets of women and men,
Of gods and dreams.
I've known all the countries of our world,
I've lived a thousand lives:
Many lives I lived in love,
Other lives I squandered.
For in my life I never traveled,
All I did was wander.”

“When I was younger, I would cling to life because life was at the top of the turning wheel. But like the song of my gypsy-girl, the great wheel turns over and lands on a minor key. It is then that you come of age and life means nothing to you. To live, to die, to overdose, to fall in a coma in the street... it is all the same. It is only in the peach innocence of youth that life is at its crest on top of the wheel. And there being only life, the young cling to it, they fear death... And they should! ...For they are in life.”

“Listen well, as I speak of my upsurge;
For I’m a lover, without a lover
I am a flame, without a combustion
I am a novice, without a mentor
I am a healer, without a wounded
I am a winner, without a trophy
I’m a captain, without a devotee
And above all, I’m alone – not lonely”

“You want to know what happened to Josh?” he hissed, taking a step forward, and Lydia’s skin prickled with chills – despite being shorter than her his gaze and his presence somehow managed to pierce directly into her, demanding attention; demanding respect. “They cut him open. Turned him into the kind of monster you wouldn’t recognise even if you’d known him. Then, when Tori and I escaped from that place, they sent our own squad – our family – to get us back. Josh was caught in the crossfire. I buried him. He's dead. Your life revolved around him? There, then. Job done. Purpose fulfilled.”

“Elyan couldn’t tear his eyes away from the screen. That was the man from his nightmares; the man who had once haunted his every waking moment. And it was all real. He was real. That should have been a triumph. It should have been the final proof he had always been right about this; that it was never a delusion, that his father was wrong. But it just left his throat dry and his heart pounding, staring at the image like he was sure it should change – that he wasn’t actually looking at who he thought he was.”

“I might be an arse but nobody deserves to be drinking double vodka on their own in the middle of the day,” he chuckled, but there was a serious concern there that even Lydia could pick up on. Well that was a damn sight different to the stiff-lipped prick he’d been last time they spoke. Eyeing him for a moment longer, she offered up a smirk of her own.
“Tori kick your arse hard enough to knock that stick out of it, then?”
“Ah, I’m not sure,” Erik clicked his tongue, tilting his head in mock-thoughtfulness, "Think I’ve still got splinters.”
― Reckless Truth
