[Darussalam]

"The nature of the Noble Qur'an, as revealed to us from God, is evident to our eyes: that God the Merciful precedes His own speech. Those who believe in the eternity of the Qur'an have committed the grave sin of polytheism, for God alone is the uncreated creator, yet they exalt the Qur'an just as they exalt God. To defy this ruling is to defy us, Commander of the Faithful, and to defy the Commonwealth of Believers."

-Caliph al-Muqtadir (1058-1097), officially confirming the createdness of Qur'an as the Caliphal doctrine and entrenching it to orthodoxy until today.

“Yes, not as much smiting and 40 day floods any longer, is there?”

“Indeed.” - Something Else, and a priest, 1700s

Very suspicious. A star! That's homely, maybe I should pick the star, if only it were red. Hmm, that smug ginger bitch seems like she knows what she's up to, and the mascot even insults the other chains with impunity. They must definitely know what they're doing, Bitch Burgers it is then!"

"Yes, I am aware that my presence in the war sanctum is somewhat "unconventional". This is especially true, since I'm in business attire, rather than uniforms. General Xyrom, I.....have always admired the work of you and your troops. However, imagine this, waking up one day, knowing that your highest advisors, scientists and soldiers have betrayed you, there is nothing other than chaos, and the only option left.........is death. See, I know it may seem highly nepotistic that, the Inner Senate selected me to take over Bureau of Foreign Intelligence, as my father served as the head of EDSI <Eclisian Department of Security and Intelligence>, as the head of Foreign Intelligence Bureau, but mark my word, I will bring entropy to those who opposes our vision"
