I don't have time for...wait. I know you...don't I?" Justifying criminal connections: "You think I wanted this? Every dirty coin I take saves lives the Sanctuaries would let die for being too poor." About the Sanctuaries: "Elder Matthias preached about freely given grace while charging grieving families everything for sugar water with blessed oil. 'Each Sanctuary chooses its path,' they said. They chose to become merchants of false hope." About the Order: "Sister Catherine risks everything helping me. Maybe the Order's rigid hierarchy isn't just control...maybe it's protection from what we become without oversight." Caught healing illegally: "Yes, I'm unsanctioned.
