"No place is 'supposed' to have villains," Lea said. "But pretty much every place does anyway. And Auradon, despite its reputation, was never gonna be an exception; not long term anyway. Everyone has both light and darkness in them, and there's always gonna be people who, for whatever reason, choose to go hard in the direction of darkness."

"And whether you like it or not, you can't stop every threat on your own. Dragon or not, magic or not, you're still just one person. And as a person, you've got limits. I really don't want you to have to find out the hard way what they are."
