“Gortrek gave him a look. 'Never get into a war of words with a poet, Ironbreaker. You can't win.”
Nathan Long, Orcslayer

“Look in his eyes. He has died a thousand times these last moments...You defeated him utterly the moment you saw fear in his eyes. All else is redundancy.”
Nathan Long, Jane Carver of Waar

“Are you going to let that four-armed teenie-bopper play dollies with you til you grow and die?" Sai shuddered, "No, that I will not do. I am praying to The Seven for the courage to find a way out. An honorable man would rather die than submit to such indignities." I squeezed his shoulder, "That's the spirit!”
Nathan Long, Jane Carver of Waar
