Snippet:
The Avatar said the words slow and clear. “Kavvana says, ‘Obey the rules;’ Orexis laughs and calls us fools.”
Matthias couldn’t help nodding in rhythm with the verse. The words fell to a place deep inside him where the other parts of the rhyme lived. They sank into that flickering, in-between place, filling in the incomplete red weaving there, knitting up the edges of Matthias’ soul. The words fit. And, Matthias knew, there would be more to come, more empty places waiting for them.
“All of Kavvana stands on the right side of the Balance. All of Orexis on the left.”
Yes. He knew that. Pretty red. Ugly green. Matthias waited.
“Kavvana is rule and order. Orexis is chaos and fancy. Both are necessary for Balance.”
