"Death, magic, and winter. A bitter cycle that Marzenya spins with crimson threads around pale fingers. She is constant; she in unrelenting; she is eternal. She can grant any spell to those she has blessed, her reach is the fabric of magic itself" - **Codex of the Divine**, 2:18

"When the faithful turned to the god of protection against a wandering horde from the north, they expected his blessing, only to be slaughtered in the war that followed. Their folly was in forgetting Veceslav was also the god of war, and iron must be tested" - **Codex of the Divine**, 4:114

"Horz stole the stars and the heavens out from underneath Myesta's control, and for that she has never forgiven him. For where can the moons rest of not the heavens?" - Codex of the Divine, 5:26

"Though Bozetjeh is the god of the wind, he is considered to be the essence of speed and time itself. He is everywhere and nowhere all at once." - **Codex of the Divine**, 10:114

"The goddess of vision, Bozidarka, is a goddess of prophecy. Be warned: for her gifts can break a mortal's mind and her blessings are not so easily interpreted." - Codex of the Divine, 7:12

If she ever speaks, all good that she has ever done will be unraveled." - **Codex of the Divine**, 12:114

"There is no ancient records of the goddess of light, Zvonimira. There are whispers, rumours , threads of truth or fiction that say she is the youngest in the pantheon, but who truly knows how the gods came to be? Like Alena, Zvonimira has never bestowed her powers upon a chosen cleric." - **Codex of the Divine**, 36:117
