When is life worth less? Where is the line? At what age? Who decides? All life is of value. Dead is dead, no matter the age📌 "...Abby's fingers fumbled at the sack. But then she remembered herself and curtsied. 'Thank you for seeing me, Wizard Zorander. It is of vital importance that I have your help. As I've already told you, the lives of innocent children are at stake.' Wizard Zorander finally peered up. After appraising her a long moment he straightened. 'Where does the line lie?' Abby glanced to the sorceress on one side of her and then the Mother Confessor on the other side. Neither looked back. 'Excuse me, Wizard Zorander? The line?' The wizard's brow drew down. 'You imply a higher value to a life because of a young age. The line, my dear child, across which the value of life becomes petty. Where is the line?' 'But a child—' Abby was saying... He (the wizard — Zorander) held up a cautionary finger. 'Do not think to play on my emotions by plying me with the value of the life of a child, as if a higher value can be placed on life because of age. When is life worth less? Where is the line? At what age? Who decides? 'All life is of value. Dead is dead, no matter the age. Don't think to produce a suspension of my reason with a callous, calculated twisting of emotion, like some slippery officeholder stirring the passions of a mindless mob.'

"...If you went through life expecting gratitude for the help you provided, you might end up leading a miserable life."

With time running out, their only choice may be a debt of bones. The world-for Zedd, for Abby,for everyone-will never again be the same. Zeddicus Zul' Zorander — the most important man alive — was born of a sorcerer and a sorceress. He married Erilyn. Panis Rahl created Mord–Sith. A Mord–Sith is different from anyone else. She does not recover from the touch of a confessor. "We reap a reward merely in the act of helping others. We never know how or if that reward will come back to us. Helping is the reward; none other is needed nor better" Zedd created the boundary! #swordoftruth #swordoftruthseries #TerryGoodkind #debtofbones #books #review https://www.instagram.com/p/Ch4tXclI3x9/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
