"13Let it be known that neither was I incapable of attaining immortality, 14nor was I denied the opportunity to recieve invincibility. 15And let it also be known: neither do I respect nor resent my colleagues for having that which I refused to accept. 16In my mind I have lived my useful life, and have braved each adventure of my time. 17The adventures of the [gods] on Atlas are not mine to brave. The only adventure left for me to face is death. 18Life and death and new life- that is the cycle of time. 19And to Zeupetro: I have no regrets for that which I must do. I hope you respect my judgement."
--Ketasolir 3:13-19
"1When Ketasolir closed the gate, I stood, in shock. Then I smiled.
2I turned to Zeupetro and said, 'He never volunteered to do anything here. 3He knew he wasn't coming. 4We don't need him, and he doesn't need us.'
5We don't need him here. He doesn't belong here. 6He isn't one of us. He is mortal."
-Intrenzo 1:1-6
"53And Këtásolir turned, uttered his last words to me, 54and closed the gate behind himself before I could stop him, closing off all contact with us. 55These last words were: 'Zupëtro, it is for your own good. 56I am mortal, and when you return, you will be glad I rebuilt it for you.'"
-Zupëtro 53:53-56
