“This whole kingdom is one big pile of filth. This is all I got. Do my job, and I survive. I got family weighing me down. So I gotta keep climbing up. The weak die. If you want to push back against that, you gotta push hard. If I want to make it, I gotta kill who the big man says I gotta kill. That simple.”

"Here it comes. You want to know why I follow you, right? Stupid question. It's not like it's easy for me, either. I've put plenty of people just like you in the ground. It's simple. Even a beast will wag his tail and show his belly when somebody strong shows up. Surtr could have killed me, no problem. You, though... I'm more afraid of what you can do. I don't mean your trick of summoning warriors. There's just something about you... I can't put my finger on. I've got this feeling that some day you're going to... do something. Just so we're clear, I'm not your pal, and I'm not your pet. You're strong, so I follow you. Don't you forget it."

"Is that brat Ylgr here? ...No, forget it."
