1->''The Sentients had won. They had turned our weapons, our technology, against us. The more advanced we became, the greater our losses. The war was over unless we found a new way. In our desperation we turned to the Void. The blinding night, the hellspace where our science and reason failed. We took the twisted few that had returned from that place. We built a frame around them, a conduit of their affliction. Gave them the weapons of the old ways. Gun and blade. A new warrior, a new code was born. These rejects, these Tenno, became our saviors. Warrior-Gods cast in steel and fury striking our enemies in a way they could never comprehend.\
2Excalibur was the first.''

5->''"Well well well. Another tenno. This ain't my usual line a work, y'understand. I'm not from around here. But I got a fast tractor and know how to jump a rail, so a new friend in Cetus set me up with all this. Name's Little Duck: fortune hunter, rail agent and the girl your Mumsie warned you about. And, now, somehow, the local Quill-endorsed purveyor of amps and assorted paraphernalia. So, what'll it be?"''

Until [[ChildrenAreInnocent they]] came. And it was not [[PowerOfTheVoid their force of will - not their void devilry - not their alien darkness...]] it was something else. It was that somehow, from [[GhostShip within the derelict-horror]], they had learned a way to see inside an ugly, broken thing... [[ThePowerOfLove and take away its pain]]."''

17->''"You like stories? Someone like you, Gara, faced up to an Eidolon - might as well have been a god - never blinked, saved a world. See.. the value of stories isn't in telling you there are monsters, Stardust. It's in showing you they can be kicked square in the down-belows."''

26->''"Sometimes you get stuck. Sometimes you go numb. The color drains away. You stop trying, and that just feeds the spiral going down. Maybe you'll get lucky one day. You see yourself in the mirror and snap out of it. But for some of us... it takes more. A friend. A stranger. A story. A helping hand."''

152->''From brooding gulfs are we beheld\
153By that which bears no name\
154Its heralds are the stars it fells\
155The sky and Earth aflame\
156\
157Corporeal laws are unwrit\
158As suns and love retreat\
159To cosmic madness laws submit\
160Though stalwart minds entreat\
161\
162In luminous space blackened stars\
163They gaze, accuse, deny\
164Roiling, moaning, this realm of ours\
165In madness lost shall die\
166\
167Carrion hordes trill their profane\
168Accord with eldritch plans\
169To cosmic forms from tangent planes\
170We end as we began''
