Life is a struggle. What you can grab from it is yours, what you can't is lost.
Georgia is too small to contain me
Kvachi the businessman, Kvachi the financier, Kvachi the shareholder
You still don't recognize me: I'm Kvachi Kvachantiradze, Silibistro's son.
Don't be silly. I'm Kvachi.
I'm Kvachi Kvachantiradze, and I'm not fake Ashordia gentry, or a fake prince, or a fake lord in waiting, nor a pickpocket, pimp, or traitor.
Brother will attack brother, father – son, and they will not be sated by one another’s blood. The flames from the fires will reach the heavens, rivers will run red, and the groans of the dying with deafen the land. A new earth will be born: alien and unfamiliar, strange and puzzling.
