“And it was not darkness, but light¡ªlight, bright and pure as the sun on snow, that erupted from Asterin.
Light, as Asterin made the Yielding.
As the Thirteen, their broken bodies scattered around the tower in a near-circle, made the Yielding as well.
Light. They all burned with it. Radiated it.
Light that flowed from their souls, their fierce hearts as they gave themselves over to that power. Became incandescent with it.”

“Maybe love shouldn¡¯t be built on a foundation of compromises, but maybe it can¡¯t exist without them either. Not the kind that forces two people into shapes they don¡¯t fit in, but the kind that loosens their grips, always leaves room to grow. Compromises that say, there will be a you-shaped space in my heart, and if your shape changes, I will adapt. No matter where we go, our love will stretch out to hold us, and that makes me feel like ¡ like everything will be okay.”
