Quotes[edit | edit source]
- (To [Shaman]) “Send a group to kill it.”
- To Merish:
- “I have lived three Meetings of Tribes. The [Chieftain] before me lived six. Six, Merish. And she told me that the elders when she was a cub said how small the Meeting of Tribes had become. Small. Look.”
- “Dragons are dying out. Perhaps they are all dead already. For the best for them, yes. One could say the same of Giants—they made terrible war and sided with the Demons. Perhaps we say the same of Cyclopes when they go too, hm? Then there will only be nicknames, like that for Pallass’ Cyclops, Grand Strategist Chaldion. But each time they go—they become stories, and we forget they were real. We are an old tribe. If stories die out, do we lose our power too?”
- “Perhaps it is not what you need, though. Ah, Merish. I come to you with my worries, not to help! I am sorry.”
- “We will survive. With your strength, the strength of Gnolls like you, with cunning, and with resolve, Merish. I am glad you returned. I came here to tell you that. If you would stay—we have need of you.”
- (To Ulcreziek) “[Shaman], you can even see gossip? Now there is a true power.”
