“ | Out of the night that covers me, Black as the pit from pole to pole, I thank whatever gods may be for my unconquerable soul. In the fell clutch of circumstance, I have not winced... Beyond this place of wrath and tears looms but the horror of the shade. And yet, the years find... shall find me unafraid. | ” |
— Gwyn Davies speaks the mantra to Reece[src]
