* ([https://wanderinginn.com/2017/05/31/s02-the-antinium-wars-pt-2/ In his Journal]) <em>‘Oh sunfilled skies, let me ride again on the fields of battle in another life. To Liscor, and the world, fight on. May we one day know peace.’</em>
* [https://wanderinginn.com/2022/04/20/8-81/ To everyone]:
** “‘Drakes don’t run?’ What a stupid thing to say.”
** “Drakes absolutely run. It’s called a strategic retreat. You do it all the time when you’re losing—then you ambush the bastards or regroup.”
* ([https://wanderinginn.com/2022/04/20/8-81/ To] [[Relc Grasstongue|Relc]]) “''Correct, rookie.'' Now shut up and follow me. I am a Drake on a mission. Is this your [[Erin Solstice|friend’s body]]? Don’t worry. I’m just borrowing it.”
* ([https://wanderinginn.com/2022/04/20/8-81/ To] [[Chaldion Oliwing|Chaldion]]) “Hey, you scheming, one-eyed fiend. I should have known you’d fight old age as bitterly as everything else. I need a word. Even you can be useful.”
* ([https://wanderinginn.com/2022/04/20/8-81/ To] [[Relc Grasstongue|Relc]]) “…I smell my city. I’m standing over my grave, and I need to piss, and I’m terrified of that. I know I’m dead, but I feel alive and it’s wonderful. My people are being idiots, which is nothing new. I could handle all of it. But…you told me you dug up my grave.”
* ([https://wanderinginn.com/2022/04/20/8-81/ To] [[Zel Shivertail|Zel’s ashes]]) “There you are, my greatest friend. My soulmate. We should have fought together a hundred wars instead of just one.”
* [https://wanderinginn.com/2022/04/20/8-81/ To everyone in] [[Liscor]]:
** “…We have always been that cornerstone of Izril. Forgotten and alone. These coming days—I need you to be the city we have always claimed to be. Build higher. Strengthen the walls. Join tails with Gnolls, even Humans, and Ants if you have to.”
** “I have always been your son. I hope you were as proud of me as I always was of you. Go well. You are beginning to look like how I dreamed of you.”
* ([https://wanderinginn.com/2022/04/20/8-81/ Referring to] [[Erin Solstice|Erin]]) “Thank you. Let me borrow this for a bit. I promise—I’ll do what I can.”
* ([https://wanderinginn.com/2022/04/20/8-81/ To] [[Valeterisa]]) “That [[Fissival|city]] didn’t deserve you. But we need you now. We are called upon to serve until we break. But we got it wrong. What we need to break is everything else. Follow me. Our people need us.”
* ([https://wanderinginn.com/2022/05/03/8-84/ To] [[Liscorian Army]]) “''So this is Liscor’s army? I’d rather take the crap I just passed into battle.'' But you’ll do. Some of you are tough bastards. Most of you are as stupid as rocks. But you’ll ''do.'' Mind you—I could take half of you on in my bed and use the other half to wipe my tail. What are you doing? Working for ''Zeres'' when the Gnolls are about to kill each other? If you’re done stroking each other’s tails—''I have a real battle for you.''”
* ([https://wanderinginn.com/2022/05/03/8-84/ To] [[Liscorian Army|Liscor’s]] [[Liscor’s Volunteer Army|armies]]) “Can’t have that. ''Someone protect the [[Mrsha|brat]].'' I have a date with the Dragonspeaker where I kick her teeth in and she pulls Manus out. Get me the bravest bastards. A group with punching power.”
*([https://wanderinginn.com/2022/05/03/8-85/ To] [[Lulv]]) “''Want to trade, boy? I can do this all day.''”
*([https://wanderinginn.com/2022/05/03/8-85/ To] [[Luciva Skybreath|Luciva]]) “I am General Sserys from the grave, and I came here to tell you everything. ''The Necromancer killed Zel Shivertail, not the Goblin Lord.'' I will have you avenge him.”
*([https://wanderinginn.com/2022/05/03/8-85/ To] [[Ilvriss Gemscale|Ilvriss]]) “''Oh yes. You’re one of Izril’s kids, alright.'' Not a minion. You figured it out? No…are you that ponce that Zel told me about?”
*([https://wanderinginn.com/2022/05/03/8-85/ To] [[Fetohep]]) “I am General Sserys of the Drakes. Son of Liscor. I am not your foe, whomever you are, you bag of bones.”
*[https://wanderinginn.com/2022/05/03/8-85/ To] [[Luciva Skybreath|Luciva]]:
**“''Do I look like a thief, Luciva?'' Do I look like a Selphid? No…do I look like a ''[Slaver]?'' I’m dead. I was never the hero you all wanted me to be. I was the [General] of one war, and Zel Shivertail was the Drake who became what you wanted. You let him die. I kept this body for a young woman who’s nowhere near my equal. But it’s hers.”
**“I am not a child. I had one chance. And do you know what? ''I outgrew my Hoarding years long ago.'' Enough of the walls! Enough of tradition! Drakes will change or be buried in their cities!”
*([https://wanderinginn.com/2022/05/03/8-85/ To] [[Erin Solstice|Erin]]) “What’s there to say anymore? I never wanted your body anyways. Skin is disgusting. Just give me one last fight.”
*([https://wanderinginn.com/2022/05/03/8-85/ To] [[Cauwine]]) “Do you want me? ''You’ll have to take my soul first.''”
