Lorimer Quotes

“Have you anything more than you wish to say, Regin?” Lorimer demanded. “I’ve given you every chance. I wasn’t deceived long by your ruse in Bondhal. I could have seized you and destroyed those wretched elves long before this, if I wanted to.”

Regin shrugged with as much dignity as he could muster in such a position. “Nonsense. You wanted the treasure, and you wanted Ord’s ring. Well, now you’ve got them, but you’ll never get Ivarr and Glimr.”

Lorimer made an impatient sound. “Yes, but I’ve got those five Alfar. I’m sure I can force one of them to tell me where the Scipling is hiding. I hope that’s a thought you dwell on when you’re dying in the bog. It won’t be pleasant for them, I assure you.”
“You’ll get nothing from them. I’m the only one who knows where Ivarr is, and it seems I’m going to be dying very shortly, so you’ll never find out until one day when he slits your weazand with his sword.”

Inside Lorimer’s pocket, Grus cackled appreciatively. “And I shall be there to see it! Bless the Scipling and bless the sword!”

“Your scepter is much more likely to be a blackthorn stake through your heart,” Regin said. “I only regret I shan’t see the day it happens.”

Grus exclaimed, “Now there’s a wizard after my own heart, and I do mean that literally.”

“What fools you are! Regin, you especially disgust me. You could have gone far as my assistant, and even the Scipling and his sword could still have possibilities, if you’d only realize your purpose is to be used as tools for great ones such as I.”
