Epigraph	comment	An epigraph (from the Greek epi-, "on" or "over", and grÃ¡phÅ�, "writing", meaning "writing upon" or, more colloquially, "inscription") is the quotation of a line, excerpt or poetry done at the beginning or (more rarely) at the ending of a work, segment or chapter. Frequent in literature, shows up occasionally otherwise. In written works, epigraphs are often used to make the reader look in a certain direction while reading, or as instructions on how to receive the work. In Speculative Fiction, it is often used to do an Encyclopedia Exposita. Can also be used for an As the Good Book Says... effect. Super-Trope to Dictionary Opening. See also Pretentious Latin Motto.

Some also cite Fictional Documents such as K'Ragh's memoir Foolish Notions. A Good Compromise borrows "Sacrifice" from the soundtrack of RWBY volume 2. The lyrics are seemingly being used to refer to the Dominion. "The Only Way to Go" uses the Brantley Gilbert song "One Hell of an Amen," whose chorus also provides the story's title. "Remembrance of the Fallen" uses a line from Matt Stover's Revenge of the Sith novelization:

Freddy's Dead: The Final Nightmare opens with two quotations; first one is Friedrich Nietzsche's "Do you know the terror of he who falls asleep? To the toes he is very terrified, because the ground gives the way under him, and the dream begins..." and the second one comes from Freddy himself ("Welcome to prime time, bitch.")

Epigraph / int_a33d799a	comment	Paradoxus: The prologue opens with a bit of dialogue between two Named by the Adaptation, OC Stand-Ins who by the time the fanfic takes place, are both long dead —Hellis, nymph of the sun, and NÃ³tt SkoÃ°, nymph of time and the void. They are talking about how You Can't Fight Fate, a Central Theme of the fic. Their inclusion also serves two establish three facts that are mostly reread bonuses. One, the Great Dragon's nymphs are going to be of key relevance throughout the plot. Two, it reaffirms that time travel kickstarts the plot but also foreshadows that it's part of the reason why things are the way they are. And three, it brings attention to an important detail, that NÃ³tt's reincarnation (aka Morrigan, Daphne's daughter) is an important behind-the-scenes player. Unlike the prologue's, the first chapter's introductory quote is not attributed to any character and it's much more straightforward in its connection to the fanfic's plot and Central Theme. It crystallizes every important character's hopes that going back in time would solve their problems. Trisha and Altalune are determined to save their mom from an untimely death, Sylvanas wants to protect her people while staying away from her hellish afterlife, and Aen'da seeks an ally against the Burning Legion. The second chapter begins with another unattributed quote that makes reference not to the central theme but to the main characters' wants throughout the plot. They all wish to preserve all the fragile, loved things or people they lost in a previous timeline thanks to the chaos brought by the Burning Legion. In Trisha, Altalune, and Stacy's cases, it's their mothers. For Galadwen, the aim is to prevent as much destruction as possible by eradicating the demons with a united elven front. The third chapter's introductory quote that it's indeed Bloom's encounter with Galadwen that sets the events of the plot—they are two who were fated to meet. It makes Galadwen aware of Eudora already making moves on the Magix dimension and makes her realize the true Aspect of Fire is not a bonafide elf but a fairy carrying a Titan-like deity's power. Chapter 04: Subverted in the sense that all chapters prior, the prologue included, open with a quote or bit of dialogue. This one doesn't, implying that the meaning of the third chapter's epigraph still applies. Since Bloom already met Galadwenl, the only other relevant thing that happens is Galadwen's accidental bond with Trisha through her mother. In other words, the "starting point" might be not what it seems at first glance. The fifth chapter's opening line aptly describes the OÃ°rsson sisters' The Determinator attitude toward the Legion's invasion and their mother's demise. They are unwilling to resign to their and the dimension's doomed fates without their most powerful guardian fairies; they also rebel at the thought of their destroyed family. It also shows that, given how much they've lost and been through, the sisters would rather die with a bang while trying to improve their situation than just accept it all quietly.

From Bajor to the Black has the first four lines of Journey's "Don't Stop Believin'", neatly summing up Eleya's original reason for joining the Bajoran Militia. "The Universe Doesn't Cheat" opens with two lines from the refrain of James Taylor's "Never Die Young", in something of a reference to Eleya's approach to the "Kobayashi Maru": The second verse and part of the chorus of U2's "Sunday Bloody Sunday" were added to Reality Is Fluid retroactively, referring to the fic's minor theme of the Cycle of Revenge. "To Absent Friends" favors the first two verses of James Taylor's "Fire and Rain." "Shakedown Shenanigans" uses a line from Isaac Asimov's Foundation Series that apparently appears on the Bajor's dedication plaque. "Last Rights" has the first two verses and chorus of "Say the Same" by Hoobastank.
