“Chovia bastante naquela manhã. A luz tinha um tom acinzentado e musguento devido às nuvens baixas. Teve de admitir que a menina não era um cadáver. Estava viva. Talvez tivesse nascido gelada, mas agora estava viva. Ainda suja com o sangue do nascimento e o início aguado das suas fezes, Liir levou-a até à porta e ergue-a para a chuva. Lavada, revelou-se verde.”

“Nossa vida inteira é constituída de atividades sem significado. Nós cavamos pela vida e sofremos ao longo dela feito ratos, e somos jogados em nossos túmulos no fim. Por que, de vez em quando não podemos ouvir a voz de uma profecia eu assistir à peça de um milagre? Por trás da aparente farsa e ultraje das nossas vidas de ratos, ainda há um padrão e um significado humildes! Chegue mais perto, minha boa gente, e veja os agouros que um pouco de conhecimento a mais traz para sua vida!”
