  • (..) outside this place. I come from a world full of life! Why don't you tell them the truth. Tell them the truth that you deny, even to yourself. There was no apocalypse! You burned in the fire that you started... ...and nothing can save you because you're already damned! - Mommy! (..)

  • (..) Burn the witch! Burn her! Burn the witch! Burn her! Burn her! You're in your own hell. Mama, be with me. Here is where the apocalypse began. This is where we stopped the annihilation of the world. We drew a line in the sand and said: "Demon, you will not cross!" (..)
