“Jacks of the Hollow," warned the queen. "Those arch stones can only be used one time to go back. They were not created for infinite trips to the past."

"I know," Jacks growled. "I'm going to go back and stop your son from killing her."

The queen's face fell. For a moment, she looked as old as the years she'd spent lying in a suspended state. "That is not a small mistake to fix. If you do this, Time will take something equally valuable from you."

The Fate gave the queen a look more vicious than any curse. "There is nothing of equal value to me.”

“Evangeline started to fall, and then Jacks was there. Her eyes were too heavy to open--but she could feel him. He held her with the type of intensity that only happens when a person wants something that isn't quite theirs.

But she was. She just needed to tell him she loved him.

"Evangeline--" His voice was hoarse. "Come back to me..."

I'm not dead, she tried to say. But there was something wrong with her throat. And it seemed Jacks couldn't hear her thoughts.

He silently held her tighter and pressed his forehead to hers. She wasn't sure if he was crying or if she was, but there was wet on her cheeks. It felt a lot like tears. And then she felt...

Nothing.”

“La gente cree que en la oscuridad nadie puede ver las vilezas que llevan a cabo. Las fechorías que cometen, las mentiras que cuentan como parte del juego. Caraval transcurre durante la noche porque te gusta observar lo que hacen las personas cuando creen que no habrá consecuencias. Cuando la gente se va de esta isla, las cosas que han hecho no se revierten, por mucho que quieran olvidarlas.”
― Stephanie Garber, Caraval

“Pero ella deseaba amor tanto como deseaba contraer una enfermedad. No había besos por los que mereciera la pena morir. No había almas con las que mereciera la pena fusionarse. Había muchos jóvenes atractivos en el mundo, pero ella creía que no podía confiarle a ninguno de ellos algo tan frágil o valioso como un corazón.”
― Stephanie Garber, Legendary
