“	Griss: How do you like to be hurt, Divine One? I'm a people pleaser. Alear: Hand over the ring, Griss. Griss: Haha! Ignoring me? Aw, that hurts my feelings. Fine, I'll give you the ring. As soon as I've gotten my fill!	”	— Griss fighting Alear in Chapter 20.

“	Two hounds or four, doesn't matter to me. I'll fight, and that's that.	”	— Griss in Chapter 21.

“	Griss: If it isn't the traitor. Don't worry, you'll see Marni soon. Mauvier: How dare you speak her name! I will kill you quickly. You'll be buried before you feel any pain.	”	— Griss fighting Mauvier in Chapter 21.

“	Live as a hound... Die as a hound.	”	— Griss in Chapter 23.

“	Griss: That's a neat trick, getting killed but not dying. Just what I'd expect from the Fell Dragon's kid. Alear: Griss... All else aside, I'm grateful you told me the truth. While I can't forgive what you've done, I do want to ask you one thing. Why are you doing all of this? Is Zephia making you? Griss: What kinda question is that?! I'm here because I wanna be, OK? Alear: I see. Griss: Hah! How sweet! Worried about little old Griss! That's an insult to me and Zephia! I won't forgive that ever. Ever! EVER! I'm gonna hurt you every which way, and then kill you once and for all!	”	— Griss fighting Alear in Chapter 23.

“	Griss: You come to get revenge? Or were you hoping the Hounds would take you back? We were a family, Mauvier. That makes us like brothers. No one would blame you for missing us. Mauvier: I am here to strike you down. I have nothing more to say. Griss: Geez, a stiff till the end. Guess there's no point in holding back the killing, then.	”	— Griss fighting Mauvier in Chapter 23.

“	Griss: So, Lady Veyle! Where's my reward? Veyle: Reward? Griss: The real Lady Veyle promised me all the agony my heart could ever want. I was really looking forward to it! The cold, the severity... But in the end, nothing. Not even a scratch. Veyle: That Veyle... She's gone now. Griss: Yeah, 'cause you killed her! So you can't be all bad. Now, you tell me—how are you gonna do it? Kill me, I mean. Veyle: I'll never forgive you, Griss. But I've never hated you, at least from the start. I think I understand why you were with the Hounds. Why you're you. But I'm not cruel. None of this will be...a reward.	”	— Griss fighting Veyle in Chapter 23.

“	Gregory: I didn't want to believe it, but... here you are. The "me" of this world. Griss: What a shock. Aren't we just two peas in a pod? Is this some sort of Divine Dragon Trick? If you're me, then you must relish pain. So I'll give you a taste of the finest pain as I kill you! Gregory: What? Why would you do that? C'mon, stop it! Fine. I don't like the thought of hurting myself, but... I don't seem to have a choice.	”	— Griss, when fighting Gregory for the first time in any of the chapters.
