->//"The power insinuates my body. And it feels so very, very good. I see things, Satanis, things I've never imagined.

->She almost felt like she was out of her body, watching herself walk forward. The [[ArtifactOfDoom sword and the bells]] called out to her. It was inevitable that she should pick them up, and wield them. She should raise an army of the Dead and lead it against Kilp and Aronzo. She would take Belisaere by storm and put everyone there to the sword, to make more deaths, to raise more Dead, to build an army such as the world had never seen, an army to go forth and conquer till there were none who could gainsay her.\\

->With regard to all forms of [[TheDarkSide Dark Magic]], any PC with [[SupernaturalSensitivity Aethyric Attunement]] in proximity to it feels an edge of panic and of creeping dread. This does not necessarily apply to the one using the Dark Magic, because his or her mind is invariably flashing with colored lights and rushing with a sense of incredible power.

->''"Always remember that power is a double-edged blade. Once side light, the other dark. It calls to you when you are most desperate. When victory seems worth any sacrifice. There is a price to be paid for such a gift. And many eagerly accept the bargain. The righteous and the meek may recoil at its cost... But they have no vision! Power alone is not to be feared. Fear instead those who '''wield it!'''"''
