Fool. I am more than a Kinkou. (zed speaks this line while flawlessly fighting Althon trying to show some slight arrogance with brutal confidence to back up his claims.)

you were never my master's equal! (zed exclaims this as the final blow against Althon, try to give the gravitas this line deserves as the final words this master will ever hear.)

Most of my followers are boys, really. like Kayn, raised by the war. when the foreigners invaded, after they lost everything, they became warriors. They know nothing else. This is what separates them from normal people. I am old enough to remember times before the war... People say my nation wasn't ready when the foreigners attacked... because we were too innocent. but when the war came I was ready because... I had lost my innocence long ago... (this is zed having an inner monologue after receiving a knife that reminds him of his past, try to show pain in his voice, how he remembers losing a part of himself so many years ago. The trauma was something he never could leave behind and keeps him moving forward and is now trying to guide this band of young men.)

If Yevani's marrying you, it was gonna happen anyway. Joking! come on! she likes you. look, after we catch this demon, you can ask her. okay, just tell her- (this is Zed when he was much younger, around 15-16 years old, and he is trying to make light small talk with his best friend when while moving a cart, try to really show how different he was then to now, show his innocence  and lightheartedness despite the fact there is a supposed demon on the loose.)
