| Ket: "Because you were vulnerable. In that armour, with a blade like that." He gestures at her, then her sword.* "You're unstoppable. But without it, chained down. Thats how everyone else feels, facing you. Helpless."
Hakon: "I did not count the days. I did not count the fights... Nor did i count scars, or kills. Men who do that go mad, down there in the dark." | |

| "what kind of strength hides its true self? How is that strong? It's but a shell. A masquerade. An act. The truth is weak." | |

| Ket: "Maybe... Only the mask is a warrior. Because the truth is too weak to kill."
Hakon: "Yes... But so did they." | |

| "Mine was five hundred and thirty three years, four months, two weeks and five days ago. Cymrai soldier. Couldn't have been more than fifteen. The cymrai were getting desperate then, recruiting anyone who could hold a weapon to hold the empire back. He dropped his shield from the formation. It was too heavy for the boy. I ran him through as he scrambled to pick it up, with this sword. Right to the hilt. I still remember his face. The terror in his eyes." | |
