Ancient One to Ruh: Be quiet or I’ll turn you into a rug.
King Zad: It’s a good day for a killing.
King Zad: Kill him.
Terron: But why? What have I done? I have always been loyal to you, King Zad.
King Zad: You were last. Reluctance is hardly a sign of loyalty, and I don’t like men who do things last.
Tao: Be careful of him. The tiger’s mind is fickle like the wind.
Tao: ...Made me realize maybe it’s time I go back to my people. The sanctuary’s your home and Kyra’s now, too. It always was. I was just a visitor here.
Dar: Tao, you don’t have to go. You can stay if you like.
Tao: Thank you, but as one door closes, another one opens. It’s a new beginning for me. It’s a new beginning for all of us.
Tao: Oh, and give him some clothes. Running around the jungle naked cannot be good for one’s health.
Kyra: No, but it does have its benefits.
Kyra: I really like Tao.
Dar: He talks too much, but he’s a good friend.
Sorceress: My dream was about change. Someone’s life was about to change. Did you mean you?
Ancient One: With me, nothing really changes. It’s all superficial, hardly worth a trance and a dream. With humans, it’s more profound. But given the choice, I prefer superficial.
Kyra: Can you teach me how to talk to them?
Dar: No. It’s a gift. It’s like your singing.
Kyra: Well, I supposed I could sing to them, and then I could teach you how to sing.
Dar: I think it would be easier to teach them how to use words.
Qord: You seem to enjoy beating Terrons.
Dar: Well, it’s a good way to pass some time.
Dar: I don’t believe you, Qord.
Qord: Why would I lie to you?
Dar: The better question is: Why would you tell me the truth?
Dar: Earth. Wind. And Fire. Travel with my Kyra for on this day she has earned paradise.
Tao: Vengeance is a Terron trait. It’s not yours and I believe that is the truth.
Dar: He killer her. She died saving me. That’s my truth.
Tao: Yes, but revenge is unforgiving. You can’t take it back. It changes everything.
Dar: Qord killer her and I can’t get Kyra back, and that changes everything.
Tao: You always said that killing doesn’t change anything. Now if you kill Qord, that will not bring Kyra back. We didn’t make this world, Dar. We’re just a part of it.
Dar: And what we do to it, we do to ourselves.
Tao: Right, so if you kill Qord, you kill yourself.
Dar: Wrong. Because he’s already killed me.
King Zad: Self doubt is one weakness I don’t suffer.
Dar: It’s evil.
Black Apparition: No. It’s good. A man can get whatever he wants by selling his soul. And those who think otherwise are ignorant.
We shall meet again, Beastmaster. When you kill Qord, whether you choose it or not, you will be mine. I never lose. Never.
Tao: You know, I often wonder what you hear when I talk to you. Probably something along the lines of... “Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.... Sharak. Blah, blah, blahblah, blahblah, blah.... Sharak.”
King Zad: The best traitors are those you trust. The knife in the back is often from a friend.
King Zad: Where is Qord?
Marak: He is anywhere there is a man who hates you, Zad; therefore, he is everywhere.
Ancient One: Isn’t it odd how sometimes the weather matches one’s frame of mind?
Sorceress: You’re angry? Why?
Ancient One: More bothered than angry, like the confusion of the clouds.
Ancient One: Once in a while, I wish everything could be my way.
Sorceress: I thought it was.
Ancient One: A large part, yes, but there is another part, a tiny sliver which can man one crazy.
King Zad: We’ve had quite a little adventure. Now we have to make a decision. Shall it be the lover or the king who dispatches justice here? Ah, but the lover is a man of peace. He chats with beasts and he doesn’t kill. I, on the other hand, relish the task.
In my view, the punishment should fit the crime. A beast: representing the Beastmaster. Deadly venom: which of course is me. All in a snake, representing you, Qord.
Sorceress: Life is a dream, and yours has not yet ended.
Tao: Some of my best recollections were between midnight and dawn. My mother used to say that was when miracles were born.
Tao: The only way to keep someone is to remember in memories. That’s how they stay with you always.
Tao: So, where are you going?
Dar: You see, I have this friend. He’s trying to get to the middle of the world. I don’t think he knows how to get there.
Tao: You’re going with me, huh?
Dar: If we make it.
