From Emilia Clio's Manuscrito Global

"There is no way to define a "true" history of Terraferma. Every historian has their own biases, their own stories that will infiltrate even the purest of attempts to record history. Don't trust the false historian who says they have the true, unfiltered history; trust the one who admits their faults."
– Welmutt Schmidte, On History

""Forgetting is our duty," quoth Carlos, rising from the small stone upon which he had been seated. "We live to forget, die to forget, so that our children need not remember." Mateos held his peace; the old man had endured much, he was the Mancomunidad made flesh. He had not beheld the ruin of his ancestors, yet he had been counselled to forget. Yet, however oft Carlos strove to banish memory, the very truth he did repeat to himself—that he must neglect the past—did but render him mindful of it."
– Manuel de la Mancomunidad, Languorous Days upon the Mancomunidad

"A história não busca a verdade, a verdade busca a história."
trans. "History does not seek truth, truth seeks history."
– Eliza Clio

"I don't think I know what I know."
– Lopez of Lama

"Think of a drago mid-flight. Imagine them flying around the same area every day at twelve o'clock. The air shifts all the time, the air they were flying in yesterday is not the same that the one they are flying in today. Neither the air, nor the drago, are the same as they were yesterday."
– Lopez of Lama
