~Quotes From Acheron~
“Love, trust… such simple words to say. Such powerful words to feel.” ~Ash~
Arti- “Tell me, Acheron. Is there anyone you will trust enough to release your soul?”
Acheron- “you know better. You’ve tutored me to well on how vicious women are. On how much love ruins and destroys. Thank you for that lesson, Artemis. It was just what I needed, and I assure you, its one I’ll never forget.”
“You’ll never see the moments coming that will forever mutilate your life – at least not until after they’ve mowed you down.” Savitar
“It’s easy to look at people and make quick judgments about them, their present and their past, but you’d be amazed at the pain and tears a single smile hides. What a person shows to the world is only one tiny facet of the iceberg hidden from sight. And more often then not it’s lined with cracks and scars that go all the way to the foundation of their soul.” ~Acheron to Soteria~
“Fate will not be denied. We can sculpt it. But in the end we’re all pawns to our final destinies, good, bad, or indifferent.” ~Savitar to acheron~
“I know what it’s like to be torn between a love so pure it burns you deep down in a place you didn’t know someone could touch you and between your oath and duties. Between the love of a father you’ve always known and one you know you can depend on forever versus a love that’s new and untested. But you know what I learned? It’s a love easier to live without my father’s love than it is to live without phoebe’s. I just thought you ought to know that.” ~Urian to Acheron~
“There are some pains that run too deep for anything to absolve them. The best we can do is pick up the pieces and hope for the strength we need to keep going.” ~Acheron to Soteria~
“He will be called Acheron for the river of woe. Like the river of the underworld, his journey shall be dark, long and enduring. He will be able to give life and to take it. He will walk though his life alone and abandoned-ever seeking kindness and ever finding cruelty. May the gods have mercy on you, little one. No one else ever will.”
~Priestess~
“You cant’ live in darkness all the time, kid. Sooner or later, everyone puts their ass in a sling. But you know what, most of the time you’re still laughing about it, grateful you had the fun that caused the injury.” ~Savitar to Acheron~
“You’re selfish and you’re cold, and I’m tired of getting frostbite when I touch you.” ~Acheron to Artemis~
“I won’t be owned by you, Artemis. Not anymore. I shouldn’t have to barter myself to you for kindness and I’m through with it.” ~Acheron to Artemis~
“No one can ever make you feel inferior without your permission, Tory. Don’t give it to them. Realize that it’s their own insecurities that make them attack you and others. They’re so unhappy with themselves that the only way they can feel better is by making everyone as unhappy as they are. Don’t let those people steal your day, baby. You hold your head high and know that you have the one thing they can never take away from you. I want you to always hold your head up and fallow your dreams wherever they take you. Don’t you ever listen to the people out to hurt you or make you cry. Listen to your heart and be better then them. No one gets ahead by hurting others. The only real peace anyone will ever have is the one that comes from within. Live our life on your own terms and make it a happy life. Always. That’s what’s important.” ~Tory’s father to Tory~
“Wouldn’t it be great if we could suck the souls of the people we hated into the box, shoot them down and then dance in their entrails?” ~Jaden to Acheron~
“I’m the god Apostolos. The Harbinger of Telikos. The Final Fate of all. Beloved son of Apollymi the Great Destroyer. My will make the will of the universe. I am not your whore, Artemis, and I will never be your slave.” ~Acheron to Artemis~
The one thing I learned is that life isn’t about finding shelter in a storm. It’s about learning to dance in the rain. I don’t care what I kill as long as I get bloody while doing it. ~Zarak to Acheron~
“Love isn’t beating ashamed to be seen with the one you care about. It isn’t about punishment or hurt. Love is what gives you the strength you need to face anything no matter how brutal or frightening. It’s what allowed ash to be beaten rather then tell his father about you. It’s what allowed him to be gutted on the floor at our feet rather then publicly shame you. And you spat on him for that love and tore him apart. For a goddess, you’re pathetic. ~Soteria to Artemis~
