Todavía se prolongó la lucha, y se amontonaron los muertos. Pero al final de la mañana, después de una batalla que mereció canciones, los guerreros de las Tierras Fértiles pudieron mirar su victoria. Eso que quedaba de ellos. Esos pocos vivos, esa montaña de muertos. Eso que no se podía reír, ni amar, ni beber, era una victoria.

Liliana Bodoc

With great abilities come great responsibilities; great power comes with great assignments.

With great age comes great reasoning; great actions come great experience.

With great battles come great victories; great trees come with great tap roots.

However, if a little faith can move great mountains, what then will a great faith do? Mysterious things... I guess

Creatures of a day, what is any one? What is he not? Man is but a dream of a shadow. Yet when there comes as a gift of heaven a gleam of sunshine, there rest upon men a radiant light and, aye, a gentle life.
