| “ | That, uh… those runes, huh? Goodness gracious… now I am sad that I wasn't as studious as my mentors demanded, all that time ago. Those boring charlatans. Well, let's see… star? No, that should be "sun". Lost sun? Absence of sun… Sunless? | ” |
― To Sunny, | ||
| “ | Ha! There's indeed no one smarter than me in the Kingdom of Hope! The rumors are true… well, of course they are true, I'm the one who paid storytellers to spread them. In any case, Sunless, what a fitting name you have. Truly a name worthy of a shadow… a little on the nose, if you ask me… but very nice nevertheless. Well done! | ” |
― To Sunny, | ||
| “ | ...You are a very strange shadow, Sunless. Well… mending a broken heart is not easy. And yours is not only broken, you also seem to have misplaced one. Until you replace the lost heart, there is no point in healing the one that remains. It will just break apart again. But where would a shadow creature like you find a suitable heart in this godforsaken land? The servants of Shadow are all gone, and so are the servants of Heart. Without them, only the greatest of healers would be able to build a heart worthy of a shadow demon from scratch...Luckily, I am the most gifted and renowned healer in the Kingdom of Hope! For me, creating a new heart for you won't be much of a problem. But, Sunless… despite the fact that you and I are dear friends, a favor like that is not something to be given lightly. I wouldn't want to put a strain on our friendship, you know? So… you will have to do something for me, too. That would only be polite, don't you think? | ” |
― To Sunny, | ||
| “ | ...wonderful… marvelous! My complexion is, without a doubt, the fairest there is in the Kingdom of Hope, but alas, black doesn't suit me at all. I won't be caught dead wearing black. Or alive, really. But this is just perfect! Finally, someone to do justice to this Night Silk I bought! It must be fate, indeed, no doubt about it… | ” |
― To Sunny, | ||
| “ | By the way, great job killing that nasty horse! What a feat! What a gallant deed! Truly, vanquishing it was an exploit worthy of being sung about. But, Sunless…Please tell me, why... why, for the love of the gods, did you kill the horse?! | ” |
― To Sunny, | ||
| “ | Oh, indeed! Maybe you are right. Gods can be very cruel, sometimes. After all, they are much more ancient and vast than kindness and compassion. Or, maybe, it is not really our lives that keep the Demon bound, but instead our will and desire to keep her imprisoned. Or maybe it is a test of our conviction… that is what the Sun Lord believes, at least. Or maybe… maybe he actually hoped that we would free her. Who knows? | ” |
― To Sunny, | ||
| “ | ...If mortals like us could know the will of gods, then we'd be gods instead. | ” |
― To Sunny, | ||
| “ | Gods, Sunless… do not ever mention those creatures again, even in jest. Angels are not something to be called upon, whether by name or in passing. | ” |
― To Sunny, | ||
| “ | What a strange word, heresy! Don't you think? It had not even existed when I was young, you know. But then, suddenly, each of the six cults started treating daemon worshipers as criminals, pests who were spreading a vile disease... and the concept of heresy was invented. Now, becoming a heretic means being hunted down and saying goodbye to your life… | ” |
― To Sunny, | ||
| “ | Well… that unsightly thing is my friend. Shame on you, Sunless. Of all the creatures in the world, I thought that you would be the last to judge someone on their appearance… after all, you are a terrible and unsightly thing yourself… and yet, we are best friends… | ” |
― To Sunny, | ||
| “ | What I am trying to say, Sunless, is that you don't need to belong somewhere, or to something. You just need to make something belong to you. That is how you can find home… | ” |
― To Sunny about his question of being lost, | ||
| “ | No matter how my battle with Sevras goes, it will end near the Ivory Tower. One of us will fall… maybe it will be him, and maybe it will be me. However, that doesn't matter. As long as one of us dies, there will be only one chain left. It won't hold Hope for long. So, Sunless, my dear friend… Should I lose… I want you to kill me. That is my desire. That is the fate I spoke about. You are my death, Sunless. Didn't you know? That is if I lose, of course! Don't, uh… don't kill me by mistake if I win. That would be very inconvenient… a bit funny, though… | ” |
― To Sunny before fighting Sevras, | ||
| “ | You... you really should stop wearing all black. What a terribly drab color! Ah, Sunless... you are better than this... | ” |
― To Sunny, | ||
| “ | Never trust the gods. | ” |
― To Sunny before he depart, | ||
