- "Thaluuk agor, for suul Salem!"
- It was like a thunderclap. The noise deafened me instantly, robbing balance entirely as up became down and my face became one with the stone floor. Through hazy vision, I saw wind explode out from the altar. It struck the dagger and shard of ice from the air, and then lifted me up from the ground and slammed me against the back wall. The others joined me, and Ruby crashed into my chest, driving what little air I had left out of my lungs.
- We collapsed in a heap a moment later, as sound and sight slowly returned. My limbs already felt tortured, but I forced my hands beneath me and pushed myself up, just enough to raise my head and look towards the Sorcerer.
- "It is done!" he screamed. "Behold, she who will make me a God!"
- The man cackled and fell to his knees, both arms raised as he stared at an ethereal woman who floated but a metre or two above the altar. Her black robes and white face already gave her a fearsome visage, long before the blazing red eyes and pulsing veins were considered. Merlot laughed and turned to us with a victorious smile.
- "Salem," he crowed. "Queen of the Grimm. Harbinger of the End Times!"
