On promises:
Cassiopeia has been tricked many times in this life, and while her own stupidity could be brought into the argument, at the end of the day she was not the one to break her promises or take more than what she bargained for. If only the world respected vows as much as she did. Hoping never worked, though, has it? How unfortunate. How pitiful. She'll change this soon enough. She hates liars.
On Horkos:
A lesser Greek god, but dangerous nonetheless. Cassiopeia doesn't understand why people find the need to regulate themselves under the notion that some greater being is watching them, but if that's what it takes for people to play fair, then so be it. She'll gladly play into the enforcement of all the words so carelessly strewn into the wind. Be careful what you wish for.
