Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves 2023 quotes, page 2

I sense your impatience.

Sofina

Szass Tam...?

But you have always been the disciple I rely on most. Doff your cowl. You needn't hide your sigils from me.

Sofina

I'd rather be flensed and flayed than spend another hour with Forge Fitzwilliam.

The man is insufferable. But we never would've come this far without his "charm". The living have befouled this world long enough. Take solace in knowing that your work here is nearly complete.

Forge

There you are. With your hood off, I notice. Probably best to keep that on. You know, you Red Wizards of Thay are not as popular as you should be outside of Thay. And of course, you're about to be considerably less popular. B-but far, far be it from me ever to tell you what to do. [chuckles] Uh, Caldwell and Piradost have just arrived. I was gonna give them... [as Sofina stands up, the chair scrapes loudly on the ground] Awful, isn't it? I really have to do something about these chairs. They're, uh... [Doric disguised as a fly flies by him, he unknowingly shoos her away]

Many lives were lost in defense of that helm. To speak of it would be to diminish their sacrifice.

Simon

Szass Tam won't be happy about this.

Edgin

Well, if he comes back, we'll be ready.

Doric

"We"?

Edgin

Oh, that's right. You don't like humans, do you?

Doric

Some are okay. What about you? Going back to the Harpers? Be with your people?

Edgin

I'm with my people.

Simon

So, uh, I know my last attempt to court you was quite bad. [chuckles] But I wonder if you'd consider having another go at it.

Doric

Yeah, alright.

Simon

Yeah?

Doric

Calm down.

Simon

Right. [sighs]

Forge

Knock-knock! I wanted to make sure you were alright. [sits next to Kira]

Kira

I knew I'd see him again one day. I just hoped it would be different.

Forge

Well, you have to understand when he lost your mother, he sorta lost himself.

Kira

Why would he lie about the tablet?

Forge

Maybe he was ashamed to admit how much he'd given up for so little.

Kira

I should probably go speak to him. [Forge gives a look] What?

Forge

Well, he's gone, my dear. He's gone. I gave him the Tablet of Riches and...he left.

Kira

Holga too?

Forge

I'm sorry. And I want you to know that even he isn't there for you, I always will be.

Kira

I know.

Forge

The fact that you see good in me makes me believe that there might just be some on there.

There he is, the great Simon Aumar, sorcerer descended from wizarding blood.

Simon Aumar

Who are you?

Don't you know me? My name is Aumar too.

Simon

You're my great-great-grandfather.

That's quite the helm. What makes you think you're worthy of it?

Simon

I believe in myself?

You're asking me?

Simon

No, I'm-I'm sure. I'm a great sorcerer.

Are you now? Funny thing about magic: it chooses who may wield it and it does not suffer fools.

Simon

Why are you telling this?

Oh, I think you know, Simon. [taps the helm off Simon]

Forge Fitzwilliam

Give her time. She's had years to resent you for your absence.

Holga Kilgore

I'm glad he's on our side.

Holga Kilgore

Don't tell me you've wasted it on me. Why would you do that?

Forge Fitzwilliam

Now I'm in a pickle, because...I don't want to see you die. Which is why...I'm gonna leave the room.

Edgin Darvis

Oh, I've got a good feeling about Plan C. [eats a chicken leg]

Forge Fitzwilliam

One could argue that my actions, reprehensible though they were, led to a virtual renaissance for the city. And while I've only served the 1st year of my sentence, I have to say it has been...eye-opening. I have taken a look inside, and I've asked myself: "What's going on in there?". And, you know, I realized...a lot of it goes back to my mum. [flashback] She was a stern woman prone to fits and-- [interrupted by Chancellor Anderton, ending the flashback]

Holga Kilgore

So many of my kin gave their lives in battle here. I'd always imagined I'd be buried in sacred ground like this.

Edgin Darvis

The truth is even if this council was to sentence me to another 2 years, or 20 for that matter, it wouldn't be punishment enough for the worst crime I ever committed: robbing my daughter of her father. But know that if you do choose to free me, I'll spend the rest of my days tryna right that wrong.

Edgin Darvis

We must never stop failing, because the minute we do, we've failed.

Forge Fitzwilliam

What a profound joy it is to welcome you, the good people of Neverwinter, to the resumption of the High Sun Games! [crowd cheers] I guarantee that you are in for the most riveting spectacle on all the Sword Coast. The rules are very simple: 5 harrowing challenges, 5 teams of champions. Whoever survives to reach the Cage of Sanctuary moves on to the next stage. One thing: I do urge you, please do not leave the arena till the close of the Games, as there will be a wonderful gift for each and every one of you! [crowd cheers again, he looks down] Alright, take me down. This is absurdly high. It's not what we discussed.
