Tao: I’m not one of them, but if I stay here, they’ll kill me.
Dar: Then don’t stay.
Tao: Right. But I also need your help.
Tao: My name is Tao. It means “the way”, and I will show it to you.
Sorceress: I never understood love. Why love? Why hate? There must be answers somewhere.
Sorceress: You’re quiet.
Ancient One: Fools talk. The wise listen.
Sorceress: Proverbs. You give me proverbs when I want answers.
Ancient One: Proverbs are the daughters of experience and the way to answers.
Tao: What’s wrong?
Dar: I don’t know. I feel like the gazelle. I just can’t see the lion.
Tao: People who do evil expect evil.
Tao: The eagle’s a friend of yours, too?
Dar: He’s Sharak. He’s older than these rocks.
Tao: Impossible. They come from the great age of ice, a million years ago.
Dar: So does he. A sorcerer took away his ability to die.
...
Tao: But watching life come and go like that... he must be lonely.
Dar: That’s why he has me. I’m his friend. He lets me see what he sees.
Tao: But someday you will come to an end. He won’t. He’ll be lonely again.
Dar: You’re always asking me about the animals. Tell me about you.
Tao: My tribe is very far from here.
Dar: Where?
Tao: The middle of the world, I think.
Tao: There are many things in life worse than being killed.
King Zad: Patience is a foolish virtue. It never gets you what you want when you want it.
Tao: Dar, does the tiger have a name?
Dar: His name is Ruh. It means headstrong and powerful.
Tao: At least that makes sense.
Dar: Nothing is impossible. Nothing.
Tao: Wisdom, if you find it, I believe, should be used for good.
Dar: Who are you?
Sorceress: I could be a friend. Perhaps the most important friend you ever had. Or the worst enemy you ever dreamed.
