About This Quote

The quote "Behold my power, Maeve. Behold what I grapple with in the deep dark, what prowls under my skin." is one of The Kingkiller Chronicle's most famous quotes. It was first uttered by Celaena at the start of her confrontation with Maeve, who had destroyed her room and was then about to attack her. She then exhaled a breath and extinguished each and every flame in the room.

This scene is one of the most meaningful scenes in the entire series as it shows just how powerful Celaena really is. She is able to extinguish all of the fires that are burning inside of her, even though she can feel them festering underneath her skin. Even though she is not directly facing the flames, she is still able to put them out without any trouble.
