[canon] shadows all around you as you surface from the dark

( I sort of made it up as I went along. )

[canon] all the light that you possess is skewed by lakes and seas

( Don't insult my little mother, or you'll wish that it was Sparhawk who caught you. As I said, he's basically a gentle sort of person. I'm not. I can do things to you Sparhawk would never dream of. )

[canon] the shattered surface, so imperfect, is all that you believe

( Business is business, Sparhawk. You and Vanion stripped me of my honour, so now all I can do is solace myself with money - and satisfaction, of course. I think I'll have your head mounted when this is all over, my friend. )
