Katsa’s inner conflict is clear when she battles between what she knows to be right and what is her duty: "Katsa couldn't say where the notion had come from, but once it pushed its way into her mind, it would not leave. What might she be capable of - if she acted of her own volition and outside of Randa's domain? It was something she thought about, something to distract herself as she broke fingers for Randa and twisted men's arms from their sockets" (Cashore 30).

Sometimes I think He looks down and says, 'Wow, look what those idiots are up to now: I guess I better help them along a little'“ (Grant 470). Here is the DIRECT QUOTE: Quote = 71 words
