Preface to Oathbringer

In Part One of Oathbringer the epigraphs are excerpts from the preface of the in-universe book of the same name.

Chapter Text
1 "I’m certain some will feel threatened by this record. Some few may feel liberated. Most will simply feel that it should not exist."
2 "I needed to write it anyway."
4 "I know that many women who read this will see it only as further proof that I am the godless heretic everyone claims."
5 "I can point to the moment when I decided for certain this record had to be written. I hung between realms, seeing into Shadesmar—the realm of the spren—and beyond."
6 "I thought that I was surely dead. Certainly, some who saw further than I did thought I had fallen."
7 "I did not die.

I experienced something worse."

8 "That moment notwithstanding, I can honestly say this book has been brewing in me since my youth."
9 "The sum of my experiences has pointed at this moment. This decision."
10 "Perhaps my heresy stretches back to those days in my childhood, where these ideas began."
12 "I ask not that you forgive me. Nor that you even understand."
13 "I ask only that you read or listen to these words."
14 "In this record, I hold nothing back. I will try not to shy away from difficult topics, or paint myself in a dishonestly heroic light."
15 "I will express only direct, even brutal, truth. You must know what I have done, and what those actions cost me."
