Volume 3[edit | edit source]

  • (To Klbkch) “We have much to discuss. After we greet your Queen, you and I must have time to talk.”
  • (To Ilvriss) “I am the last memory of my kind. Thunder which moves grass. I am a Queen without a Hive. Fire burning in the heart of ice. I am Xrn, and I will not die here.”
  • (To Klbkch) “You would put aside a conversation between us—the reason the Hives have sent their delegation here in the first place—for a single Human girl?”
  • (To Olesm) “You may not know me, young Drake. But I am Xrn, the Small Queen. Of all those who fought in the Antinium Wars, I was the one who never fell. I am strongest in this room, and so it is I who say: enough.”

Volume 4[edit | edit source]

  • To Klbkch:
    • “It’s not that I’m angry, Klbkchhezeim. I’m just disappointed.”
    • “Klbkch. I am not questioning your use of time. I am simply asking why you haven’t included talking to me as part of your activities.”
    • “We cannot stay here, with flawed Queens who remain fragmented. With no hope of rebuilding our people. We must return home, Klbkch. We must recover our lost knowledge.”
  • (To Klbkch) “I believe that would be most entertaining, Klbkch. Wave at Shivertail. Or better yet, buy him a drink.”
  • (To Ijvani) “My orders from the Grand Queen are not to use force unless attacked first. Especially not against groups like adventurers to avoid starting a war. So I will not cast any spells. Unless you hit me with one. Please, do.”

Volume 7[edit | edit source]

  • To Klbkch:
    • “You despair. You forget. Look at you. You would slay the only good thing you have made. You would become what they call you. Klbkch the Slayer. But that is not who you are.”
    • “Insubordinate? When did you turn into Wrymvr? Look at you. You despair, and see only shadows. But look. Look at the sun!
    • “We have come. Hope, Klbkch! Hope, you fool! Believe.”
  • (To Saliss) “Silly little DrakeThe question is not yes or no. The question is: with whom? Because we never stopped.”
  • (To Klbkch) “So that is the power of Erin Solstice. I see it now. Your advice was right, Klbkch. Give her no vaults of treasure or overt aid. ‘Let Erin be Erin.’ And she brings joy to the Antinium.”
  • (To Pawn) “Color changes meaning depending on time and place and nuance. Why should it be the same each time? Would you cast a spell the same way each time? You would? Well then—that is the difference between how you understand colors and I.”
  • To Ryoka:
    • “I did not think it pertinent to ask, but in your world, does the word ‘ally’ mean someone who is consistently deficient in giving actual aid and support to their allies?”
    • “I do not cast magic the same way as [Mages]. Because my method and understanding is like red and blue.”
  • To [Assassins]:
    • “Hello, Humans. My name is Xrniavxxel. You call me the Small Queen of the Antinium.”
    • “I am simply doing a good deed. I am allowed to break rules to do a good deed. I did not know this, but it seems acceptable.”
    • “I am telling you so you don’t have to ask. It. Is. War. War on your Guild of Assassins. The Antinium are at war. So—advance.
    • “Yes. So you [Mages] like to say before you die.”
  • (To Pawn) “I am not Klbkch. If you wish to, I can only admire such beliefs. But I will not share them. If I cared, I could not sacrifice.”

Volume 8[edit | edit source]

  • To Chesacre & Thaina:
    • “The answer is: improve some to my standards. Chesacre, Thaina, I like you two. Therefore, I am going to risk your lives today. To make you better.”
    • “They call me the Small Queen. But I have never sought to create my own Hive. Not once. For I am Xrniavxxel—unique. But it seems to me I have squandered my potential. It is fortunate that unlike Klbkch and Wrymvr, I am always willing to learn.”
    • “You two will be the first of mine. Or die. Endeavor not to.”
  • (To Grimalkin) “I am always late. No one invites me to the inn.”

Volume 9[edit | edit source]

  • (Eating cake) “Yum.
  • (To Erin) "Then I would have rather you led the 7th Hive. I would have made you a Queen."
