Editing Lyonette du Marquin/Quotes (section)

=== [[Volume 7]] ===
* ([https://wanderinginn.com/2020/03/01/7-11/ To] [[Erin Solstice|Erin]]) “[[Wailant Strongheart|He]] reminds me of you, a bit. A male you, Erin.”
* ([https://wanderinginn.com/2020/03/21/mating-rituals-pt-2/ To] [[Erin]]) “Because I’m the mean, strict mother and person managing this inn. And you’re the <em>cool boss.</em>”
* ([https://wanderinginn.com/2020/03/31/7-16-l/ Thoughts]) But that was Erin. Normal rules were like butter to Erin. You could take it or leave it or put it on toast, but it wasn’t an impediment to her.
* ([https://wanderinginn.com/2020/03/31/7-16-l/ To] [[Pawn]]) “Honestly, I don’t know how your class works, Pawn. It’s so—unique. Mine? I’m very glad about being a [Worldly Princess]. Otherwise, only royal acts would allow me to level. Which is why most of the royalty are under-leveled compared to everyone else. Well—we also level slower.”
* ([https://wanderinginn.com/2020/06/03/7-27/ To] [[Erin]]) “That is correct in everything, but—how can you be so <em>wrong</em>, Erin?”
* ([https://wanderinginn.com/2020/06/28/7-31/ To] [[Erin]]) “It’s not our job to stop that. Let the Watch deal with it. Erin. <em>Don’t go out that door.</em>”
* ([https://wanderinginn.com/2020/09/20/7-48-k/ To] [[Bird]]) “They’re too expensive. What am I saying? <em>We are not mounting a ballista on the inn!</em>”
*([https://wanderinginn.com/2020/10/14/7-52/ To] [[Mrsha]]) “Oh, so you believe a bit of fire more than me? How dare you, you silly little bean!”
*([https://wanderinginn.com/2020/11/08/7-56/ To] [[Ryoka Griffin|Ryoka]]) “Why, Miss Griffin, why would I ''possibly'' have a problem with you? At all? For any reason? It must be in your imagination.”
*([https://wanderinginn.com/2020/11/11/7-57/ To] [[Serafierre val Lischelle-Drakle|Fierre]]) “[[Ryoka Griffin|She]] just ran a delivery to wake up the Archmage on that isle that killed countless people. You think she’d weigh the odds? Ryoka Griffin is insane. Erin…”
*[https://wanderinginn.com/2020/11/15/7-58/ To] [[Ryoka Griffin|Ryoka]]:
** “You do. Because, why? You have a secret weapon that trumps everything? Or because it’s ''you?'' I thought monarchs had huge egos. But Runners take everything.”
**“When we first met—truly met, not me being an ungrateful child after Erin rescued me—I liked you. I hated Erin, at the time. Remember? With Maran and Safry?”
**“Do you know how many nights she cried for you? For ''you'', the person who’d rescued her. And you were gone. I hated you for that.”
**“But then you came back. I was jealous because Mrsha loved you. She’s ''my'' daughter, you understand? I was jealous and that wasn’t fair.”
**“I wish she didn’t love you. I wish you’d never come back and she grieved and cried but ''forgot'' about you. Because someday, someone is going to have to tell her that you’re dead. It won’t be decades from now. It might not even be years. And that person will be me, or Erin.”
**“I understand. And it might be wrong. But even if—can’t you let them die? Because I don’t want ''you'' to die. Do you understand that? You’re too important to us.”
**“I could never do anything, either. I was a [Princess] without anything. I hated that. So I ran away. Now—I almost wish I was that old Lyonette. Because she was helpless. And she didn’t ''care''. She didn’t have a child and she didn’t worry every night—I could stop you.”
**“I could. I’d have Pawn and the Antinium hold you captive. But that wouldn’t change who you are. Or why Mrsha loves you. In the end—I won’t get in your way.”
**“Giving you my boon! It’s a Skill! If you’re going to—why isn’t it working? ''Please'' don’t tell me I have to kiss anywhere else. I don’t even think—what’s ''wrong?''”
*[https://wanderinginn.com/2020/11/25/interlude-the-tribes-of-izril/ To] [[Krshia Silverfang|Krshia]]:
** “If it was the choice between putting Mrsha in danger with a one in a ten ''thousand'' chance of her getting hurt and not doing it, I’d never do it, Krshia. Even if it made the Silverfang tribe the most powerful in all of Izril.”
**“Enough. Fine. You’ve made your point. That doesn’t change my opinion ''at all.''”
*([https://wanderinginn.com/2020/12/09/7-61/ To] [[Erin Solstice|Erin]]) “Who are you? Are you ''really'' making plans? Albeit late?”
*([https://wanderinginn.com/2020/12/23/solstice-pt-9/ To everyone]) “Erin is not this inn. She’s the heart of it. But it was never just her. Now, ''she'' needs us. More than ever. I won’t give up. I’m going…to Oteslia. To find a way to bring her back.”
