Quotes[edit | edit source]

(To Krshia) “She’s insane. They’re going to kill her. It’s going to kill her.”
(To Pisces) “And I’m a receptionist at the Adventurer’s Guild. I’ll put a twenty-gold bounty on your head if you so much as raise an undead anywhere within twenty miles of the city.”
(To Adventurers) “No, there are no more requests available. Sorry. Next! You two, the Human and er, pointy-eared Human!”
(To Ceria & Gerial) “Why would you need anything like that? You’re adventurers, right? Just go out and kill monsters and try not to get killed.”
To Erin:
- "We don’t lay eggs. We’re descendants of Dragons, but only in some ways. We don’t lay eggs or hibernate. We. Are. Not. Lizards.”
- “You stroked his tail? Erin! It was only a first date!”

To Erin:
- “Yeah! You look like you’re overwhelmed. Need a friendly tail?”
- “It’s all he likes to make. Couldn’t he try something else when he’s courting? But no, it’s all carrots. Carrot pies, carrot soup, carrot salads, raw carrots, noodles and carrots, carrots baked into bread…”

(To Erin) “Let me introduce you to one right now. Don’t you worry; Aunt Selys is on the job! That’s Aunt Selys for Mrsha, obviously. Don’t call me an Aunt, Erin. It’ll make me feel old.”

(To Adventurers) “I said get out there! The city is under attack! You’re adventurers, this is your job!”
(To Zevara) “My uncle’s dead. That’s my business. I’m not the one dealing with his dead body killing people. I’ll be fine, Watch Captain. You do your job. I’ll be fine.”
To Pisces:
- “I’m not afraid of the undead. I just don’t like them. Is it going to get to work or do I have to kick you into the water after it?”
- “If you’re going to create an undead monster, Pisces, do it right. Can you make more?”
- “I’m a [Receptionist] for the Adventurer’s Guild. I have to memorize monster weaknesses and variants. You’re the [Necromancer] here. What’s your excuse?”
(To Tekshia) “I’m not. But I say it should be this way, Grandma. If you’ll sign this, I’ll take responsibility for the Goblins. If they cause trouble, I’ll take the blame. Not you. You can put that in writing.”
(To Olesm) “Ancestors, Olesm! You are the worst liar I’ve ever met! And I’ve talked to the Antinium!”
(To Erin) “Grandma’s not budging, and if she’s staying, I’d better stay with her to make sure she doesn’t fall asleep. Besides, reinforcements are on the way, right?”

To Pisces:
- “Yeah, well, I didn’t see you helping Krshia. Or me. Where was the handy, know-it-all [Necromancer] when I could have used someone arguing against Olesm and Lism?”
- “Amazing. Five minutes of talking with me and you have a better idea then you came up in what, four weeks of work?”
To Erin:
- “That’s the worst—no, wait, Hawk and Relc are worse. But that’s pretty bad, Erin.”
- “I don’t know. Did we win? Can we win if it’s not complete, Erin? If it’s just a little victory? How can I feel good about it when I know—we deserved more? We did, and they cheated.”
(To Pisces) “I don’t know why you’re so upset. It’s not as if I forced you to leave the inn. We’re on a small outing. It’s a favor to me. Can you not act as though I’m sacrificing your mother?”
(To Pisces) “But not enough. If you did it for a reason, that’s one thing. She hated you because you were a [Necromancer]. That’s another.”

To Hawk:
- “Ugh. That is just so like you, Hawk! You could have saved Welle, but you stand back because you won’t do anything. Erin would, and she’s not even a fighter! Or P—”
- “Unfaithful? We’ve been seeing each other for less than a month! I thought it was casual, but you’re always like this! You know what? If that’s how you feel—we’re done.”
(To Erin) “What…what am I looking at, Erin? Is this it? This?”
(To the others) “I thought—I—this is a joke, right? I thought Erin was just from one of the paradises. A—she was actually the daughter of someone rich. This—why is it round?”
(To herself) “Everything is so small. We can build higher. Higher—this place is so crude. I should invest in glass. Glass is the future.”
(To Erin & Ryoka) “It’s so far. No, wait—it’s a round world. Round! There’s no end to the world. And—and—you can fly in giant metal Dragons all over. Right, nothing strange about that!”
To Todi:
- “Too right. Wait a moment. Are you that Gold-rank that bothered them in the Guild? You are! I heard all about it from Pisces!”
- “And that’s why Erin’s not going to like you. She likes the crazy types. Those are her friends.”
(To Erin) “Why you? Why her? Why me? Why us, Erin? Every time?
To Erin:
- “Erin, do you want to…fall in love?”
- “—you should let people know. I guess the first question—the only question is, Erin—do you want to be in a relationship?”

(To Bird) “Bird. We can’t stop you. But if Erin was standing here, and she heard what you wanted to do, if you did it and she woke up—she would cry. She would not want this.”

(To everyone) “He did it! He actually out-Erined her! I can’t believe it! Zevara, do you see—?”
