"Your dragons are more powerful than you think, Queen Foxglove. I do think that we will be able to show that in this war."
"I may question your motives, but if you deliver what you have promised me and my dragons, you will have my unfaltering loyalty and enternal gratitude."
"I'm trying hard to get closer to all my nieces and nephews... But Cyra poses a unique issue. I was thinking maybe she could read some of my scrolls with me, but she'd burn them to a crisp easily... Perhaps she wouldn't mind if I read them to her?"
"My uncle Bubo is an interesting dragon. He's quite skittish at times. And I can tell when he gets nervous because he fiddled with his claws or glasses. It mostly happens when I'm near his scrolls. He and mother get along well."
"My dear daughter, cursed from birth with firescales... What I would give to embrace her like I do my other children. I fear she will believe her firescales is her only trait. I must find a way to spend more time with her... But with the weight of the whole kingdom on my shoulders, it is hard finding time for any of my family."
"I feel so distant to you, Mother. I wish I could be more. To make you proud. But the flames burn brighter inside me each day, and it makes me afraid.."
"My daughter is quite talented in all she does. I expect with her skill, she will go far in life, and would even if she wasn't my daughter. I know being firescales is tough on her, and I hope I can help her to loosen up and laugh a little, at least around her old man."
"My father is the greatest dragon I've ever met. Ever since I was a child I've longed to be just like him. He's my hero, truly. I still feel guilty for burning quite a fair bit of his equipment when I was younger and wanting to play with his swords. I hope one day I can make it up to him."
"Mother was always quite harsh on you. You are a powerful and useful companion. I dare say even friend."
"Is serving the icewing's truly worth my life? If I were to die, what would you grieve first Queen Eira? My life, or your lost weapon and bargaining chip?"
"Half-blood."
"She wants my head, and for what, a past I cannot control? A bloodline that is as much mine as hers."
"My brothers and I all faced the horrors within our home together. But the result of those things had different outcomes on us all. Barren is anxious and still afraid. It hurts me to see he hasn't moved on fully. I will always protect him, and be there for him. Always have, always will. It was a promise we all made when we were children. To stick together forever."
"There is nothing that I wouldn't do for Onyx. My sister first, Queen second, and that's how it'll always be. I'm.. Not one for fighting but if it comes to it I'll help in anyway I can. I hope she knows that."
"My dearest cousin. I thank you for opening the opportunity for me to seize the throne."
"Queen Eira was insufferable at first with her demands for war, but now that Pandora's gone... By her side, I will make Tranquility pay for what she's taken from me."
""The Skywings are a powerful force. I dare say some of the most powerful in the two continents. Queen Pegasus is a great ally. One which I am fortunate to have by my side. As unfortunate as our connection may have been. We will avenge her heir and win this war, no matter the cost. We will prevail."
"I'm happy to be the one by Onyx's side when it comes to governing her kingdom, she gets her humour from her old man. Don't tell my other grand kids, but she's my favourite."
"It’s very irresponsible of me to not give a damn about the war Onyx is fighting so hard for, but that kid she’s helping is on thin ice, literally! PHAHAHA."
"I'm rather fortunate to have someone so knowledgeable advising me. Especially since Sovereign has been around so long, watching over our family. She knows what he's doing. I still have quite a lot to ask him, especially about my parents. But I'm glad she's there for me, and the kingdom. Things wouldn't have been the same if Sovereign hadn't of been there on that unfortunate day when I was crowned Queen."
"Queen Pegasus runs her kingdom with so much grace and care for her people. It's admirable. She's truly talented at what she does. If only we'd met at a different time."
"Queen Onyx's kingdom remains vibrant and bright through these turbulent times. Though she is young, she is to be respected."
I couldn't look at you as you slept. The harsh smell of fire still lingered on you, the feeling of ash still in my nose. I wish I could've been better, been more for you. Shame and guilt haunted me. I didn't want to hurt anyone else, hurt you anymore than I did; and I regret it. Every time I see a star I wish I could go back and rewrite it all.
I feel as though the old you was the better you, the old you before you left me. We made a promise, a promise that we'd be together for ever and look where that lead us.. I can't hate you, and I can't love you. It's like I'm always in a constant limbo between anger and tears when I see you, hear you, or even think about you...
