Jordan: No killing. We're trying to make you feel peaceful, so you don't go up in flames. Blood, killing, war, those are all non-peaceful things. Isn't there anything else you like? Rainforests? Chirping birds?
Jace: Weapons. I like weapons.
Jordan: I'm staring to think we have a problematic issue of personal philosophy here.
Jace: I'm a warrior. I was brought up as a warrior. I didn't have toys, I had weapons. I slept with a wooden sword until I was five. My first books were medieval demonologies with illuminated pages. The first songs I learned were chants to banish demons. I know what brings me peace, and it isn't sandy beaches or chirping birds in rainforests. I want a weapon in my hand and a strategy to win.
Jordan: So you're saying that what brings you peace...is war?
Jace: Now you get it.
