“Her fierce and angry soul hides amongst the beauty of her light. She's deadly and contagious as she blazes from person to person burning all that she touches.

Fire, it's a dangerous thing.”
― Arti Manani, Seven Sins

His true form will stand before him, stretched out forming the thickest, darkest truths he's ever seen.

I don't want to be there when I die. Death. Although it comes once, it lasts forever.”
― Arti Manani, Seven Sins

I'd suffocate those whispers and I'd feed the silence, but it was still there, hidden but not discreet as it pierced my insides with the sharpness of its thorns, growing inside me within the darkness of my soul.

― Arti Manani, Seven Sins
