Quotes[edit | edit source]

Volume 1[edit | edit source]

(To Erin) “No touching the food with your filthy hands unless you’re buying!”
(To Erin) “Don’t touch. You’ll stink it up with your Human smell.”
(To Erin) “I don’t have all day to play fetch for you, Human. Just tell me what you want to buy first.”
(To Erin) “Are you calling me a liar?”
(To Erin) “Typical Humans. Walking in here, stinking up the market, and insulting any non-Humans you find. You should be grateful the Guard doesn’t run you out of the city! First that damn Necromancer comes here, and now this smelly one that can’t even read.”
(To Erin) “If you’re done grubbing in the dirt, I have more customers to serve.”
(To Erin) “I know it was you! You couldn’t resist attacking an honest merchant and you decide to have a bit of revenge, eh?”
(To Guard) “It could have been her. You know how humans get! They’re always sneaking around, going where they’re not wanted.”

Volume 3[edit | edit source]

(To Olesm) “It’s just one more damn Human. Who cares?”

Volume 6[edit | edit source]

(To Lyon & Drake) “Hah! Look at that! Running like the cowardly Human she is! Not a tail to tuck between her legs! Hey—don’t you climb onto my stall! You attack me and I’ll call the Watch! I have a right to free speech! Not that a Human-loving pervert would understand anything off—”
(To Rufelt & Lasica) “Tomorrow I’ll be running Liscor or sitting in my shop. Either way, I’d better know the people I want to lead. And I wanted to see her.”
(To Rufelt & Lasica) “If I do become Councilmember, I’m going to tax this inn, though. Ancestors know it’s deserved. Thank you for the drink.”
(To Olesm) “Thank you, my boy. I think…no, thank you. We couldn’t have done it without you. I’m a Councilmember. I never thought I’d see the day. Me. A [Shopkeeper] on Liscor’s…”
(To Krshia) “As much as I hate to admit it, Councilmember Silverfang, I have to agree.”
(To Zalaiss) “This is democracy! Tell the Council! They’re not in charge!”

Volume 7[edit | edit source]

(To anyone) “Stop that insane Human! We need to regulate this!”
(To Magnolia) “I’m Councilmember Lism of Liscor. And this is my city.”
(To Krshia) “We’re still discussing the matter, Silverfang! The council session is not over! Bah! And this inn’s at the heart of it all!”
(To Councilmembers) “Bah. We didn’t do anything. And I’ll say this. Damn that Reinhart, but she helped us. Don’t give me that look, Silverfang! I can admit that.”
(To Hexel) “What in the name of the walls are you?”
(To Councilmembers) “Alright. A quick vote since this is in debate. All in favor of cancelling our agreement with Architect Hexel who has come from Baleros and represents the Builder’s Guild because he’s a Lizardperson?”
(To Councilmembers) “Shut up, Tismel. Alright, that’s decided. Now, all in favor of throwing Tismel out of the window?”
(To himself) “Go ahead and fire him now, you scaly lizard—er—idiot.”
(To Councilmembers) “And nearly declared war on us thanks to that damned—one of our Humans. Miss Erin Solstice.”
(To Krshia) “Silverfang, you are just a—an uneducated beast! There’s a proper way to do things! With elegance! Tact! Between Drake cities, this is how things are done.”
(To Councilmembers) “And why couldn’t Elirr make it? We all agreed to meet every morning. It’s morning, and unless I missed the end of forever, I assume it’s ‘every’.”
(To Krshia) “Only someone who thinks there’s nothing to improve doesn’t complain, Krshia.”
(To Krshia) “If the Antinium are going to attack us, there’s no future for Liscor anyways, is there? If I believe that, I don’t think I’d be investing my time here.”
(To Krshia) “How can it be better than the city I love? How can my home not be the most beautiful place in the world?”
(To Krshia) “I won’t change my mind about that. If you’re not part of the city, you can’t complain about it! You don’t respect it. But…Erin Solstice.”
(To Krshia) “Maybe. If someone stood outside the city with a flag and stopped a damn army from taking the city—that’s not an outsider. If they’re pesky Gnolls—that’s one thing. If they’re members of Liscor, that’s another. If it’s damn Antinium, they can all drown. But a Liscorian? A Liscorian fights for their home. Makes it better. If I was going to respect…anyone…I’d respect that.”
(To Krshia) “I could have never imagined I’d be here. Doing this. It all feels new. I feel alive. It feels like—I’m dreaming of a better Liscor. And pulling the pieces out of the sky.”
(To Yisht) “You, Scalespeaker, owe Councilmembers Krshia, Elirr, and Raekea—and the citizens of Liscor, Gnolls and Miss Solstice, an apology. I’ve listened to you slander them for the last two hours. Not my city. Not my people.”
(To Erin) “That’s Councilmember to you, Miss Solstice. It seems—no. I owe you an apology.”
(To the crowd) “Today, fools killed the greatest treasure our city has ever known.”
(To the crowd) “Not the woman herself. Not just her. But what she represented. What she became. Every step, every life which met with hers, every meal and Skill and day made our city better. She was—”

Volume 9[edit | edit source]

(To Bird) “This idiot—we don’t want to take it away, Bird! We want to hire you to use it!”
(To himself) “Dead gods. Has it come to this? Who am I?”
