Rescue

Dar: I know gourds.
Tao: But you don’t know what I’m going to do with these gourds.
Don’t you want to know? Actually, you’re right. sometimes it’s better to show than to tell.

Tao: All I know is don’t look a gift horse in the mouth, even if that horse belongs to a Terron.
Dar: But knowing and reasoning is what you do best.
Tao: Normally it is, but not when I’m in this much pain.

Sorceress: Sharak. I did it.
Sharak: You take chances.
Sorceress: Not so many. I’ve learned a great deal since we were together.
Sharak: And forgotten just as much.
Sorceress: You sound just like him.
Sharak: The Ancient One knows everything. He’ll make you pay.

Sorceress: Love is stronger than magic.
Sharak: Is it?
Sorceress: You used to think so. Are you so changed?
Sharak: Time... time changes everything.

Sorceress: Must you control everything?
Ancient One: Yes... and no. Fate is a province over which none have dominance.

King Zad: I sent this man to bring me new flesh. You bring me back dead meat!

King Zad: I don’t fear enemies, Qord. Enemies are the offspring of great conquests. If I could, I would clutch each one of them to my breast and suckle them like tender babes before extinguishing their pitiful lives.

Ancient One: Sadly, fate spares none and all must bow. So it’s time, dear Kyra. Go now and meet your destiny. Though my powers are legion, even I can’t fight fate.

King Zad’s soliloquy: Dissension. You can smell it. A vile odor. How far has the poison spread, I wonder. You take me for a fool, Qord. Beastmaster’s no killer. That’s what I do.

Kyra: What do you want from me?
King Zad: I want to feel your fight before I take it from you.

King Zad: How many others are against me?
Kyra: I am sure there are many others, but I acted alone.

Tao: Maybe it’s a good sign. Maybe Zad’s losing control.
Dar: Would that be a good thing?
Tao: Are you saying we’re better off with a devil we know?
Dar: No, I’m not saying that. I just have a feeling about it.
Tao: A good feeling or bad feeling?
Dar: I have a bad feeling about that gourd of yours.
Tao: Oh, this. This? You are going to love this. This will be my best invention ever. Promise you!
Dar: It leaks.
Tao: Exactly.

King Zad: Where is he? Where is your precious Beastmaster?
Tao: What gave me away, the limp?

King Zad: I was powerless. Once. As a boy, my father ruled with an iron fist. Savage man. Unyielding. I was afraid of him. I hated him. I watched. I learned, and one day I killed him. Think that barbaric, Kyra? Unnatural, even?
Kyra: Nothing surprises me.
King Zad: Oh, I felt a little strange about what I had done, but the feeling didn’t last. And I’ve never bowed to another man since and I never shall!

King Zad: One thing I’ve learned: What you can’t escape, you should embrace.

King Zad: Where’s the Beastmaster. Speak, grub.
Tao: Why don’t you tell me. You’re the one with a superior view.
King Zad: It always amazes me how you manage to keep your sense of humor. I admire with and courage in a man, particularly one in your position. It’s almost a pity you’re about to die such a horrible death.

King Zad: Did you see what that slave of the Beastmaster’s did to me? I’ll have sore ribs for days.

Ancient One: Youth is full of hope. It doesn’t just enjoy illusion. It believes it.

Ancient One: Power is a delicious plum to the victor. Unfortunately, someone always has to lose.

Tao: Curiosity is a great strength and weakness for my people.

Tao: When you spend so much time inside your own head, you tend to lose touch with your body.

Tao: So your little uprising failed?
Qord: Yes. Luck was with the beast once again.
Tao: I once heard it said that the devil looks after his own.
Qord: It is also said “my enemy’s enemy is my friend.” Do you think the Beastmaster and I could be friends?

Dar: I could never trust you, Qord. You only want to defeat Zad so you can replace his evil with that of your own.
Qord: You’ll never get another offer like this, Beastmaster. You may regret rejecting it so easily.
Tao: No man should regret what is right, regardless of the consequences.

Ancient One: As for the words “fate” and “fair”, why they don’t even belong in the same universe!

Ancient One: Don’t begrudge the Beastmaster this moment of happiness. It’s just that. A moment. Like all human experiences and emotions, it’s a fragile and transitory thing. Over and gone, almost as soon as it’s begun.
