Quotes:
Prince Colwyn: The forest is not safe. You best travel with us.::Ergo: Me travel with you? Do you know who I am?::Prince Colwyn: No.::Ergo: I am Ergo the magnificent. Short in stature, tall in power, narrow of purpose and wide of vision. And I do not travel with peasants and beggars. Goodbye!
Princess Lyssa: Power is fleeting; love is eternal.
Princess Lyssa: My father says that good fighters make bad husbands.::Prince Colwyn: Well, that depends.::Princess Lyssa: On what?::Prince Colwyn: On whether you expect a husband to follow you around. Jump every time you clap your hands.::Princess Lyssa: Wouldn't you jump for me? No of course not. You're a warrior.
Prince Colwyn: The reward is freedom... and fame!::Torquil: Freedom? We have it! And fame? Nah. It's an empty purse. Count it, go broke. Eat it, go hungry. Seek it, go mad!
Ergo: If I had my wish I'd be out of this gloomy place right away. If I really had my wish I'd be sitting on top of a gooseberry pie as big as a mountain. No, that's a bit greedy. I'll settle for one as big as a house.::Titch: I'd wish for a puppy.::Ergo: Only one puppy? If you're wishing why not wish for a hundred?::Titch: Only want one.::Ergo: Well that's a foolish wish. And you Rell, what would you wish for?::Rell the Cyclops: Ignorance.
Ergo: My name is no jest, beanpole. It's all very well to have a short name when you're twenty feet tall, but small people need large names to give them weight.::Rell the Cyclops: Your actions give you weight, my friend.
Ergo: There was a difference of opinion concerning a gooseberry pie. The man left it sitting on his windowsill. What did he expect?::Prince Colwyn: Perhaps he expected to eat it.
Ynyr: There are kingly virtues other than bravery. Courtesy is one of them.
Ynyr: We all risk our lives on this journey. My risk is no greater than yours.
Turold: From this day, my kingdom is no more.::Eirig: Nor mine.::Turold: A single kingdom under our children.::Eirig: Agreed.
