No one is going to tell us how to run our lives. I don't care who you are, or what wheels have been set in motion — we'll sort it.

Through crimson stars and silent stars and tumbling nebulas like oceans set on fire, through empires of glass and civilizations of pure thought, and a whole, terrible, wonderful universe of impossibilities.
