Peace is brought with the blood of innocents who will never know that peace, it is a lie we tell ourselves so that our wits and blades may grow dull.

No there is no such thing as peace, only the calm before the next storm, and a storm is coming for us all, May Obeah guide us through it

– Grand Chancellor Marcus Daubery
