"Am I worthy?" Dess asked in a worried tone I usually didn't associate with the always-bright fairy.
"I don't think it's about being worthy…" I glanced sideways at Liara.

Looking back on all our adventures since we acquired our grimoires, Liara and I have mostly used our powers for good. We've done selfish things while using them too, for sure, but when shit hits the fan, my betrothed and I were always standing at the front of the line and holding back the dark. That's why I could confidently say, at least to myself, that we'd shown our quality—and it was of a superfine nature.
Yeah, the vault mini arc's gotten kind of long. One more to go and we're back to the main scenario. ;p
