"We train in how to cross the line without shattering ourselves. If we fail, then we have truly failed. My caste is perhaps the most dangerous, and the most feared, but we are as much a danger to ourselves as to others. I could mix my poisons incorrectly and kill myself, or fail to milk the snakes tooth in time, I could shatter my own mind, become lost in my own illusions, and tangled in my own webs. Like with all things, everything has a price, we pay for our power in dangers and risks."
