The people of Rigel... If only they could be diligent in my absence, all would be well. It vexes me.

Level 40 quote

I have come to know you in the time since you called me here, Summoner. You are a strong one. But your strength is not the strength I hope to see in mankind. At times, you do approach my ideal... But your kindness is more like my sister Mila's. Seeing you makes me ponder what things would have been like if we had ruled the land together. No, this is foolishness. A god like me, learning from you, who is as dirt? Pay this no heed.

Duma: Strength and Love

At the castle

Let praise ring out across the land for Duma's strength and Mila's love! We shall answer the harvest festival's call.
— When summoned
We offer our blessings unto humanity. Mila, her compassion and wisdom; I, my strength and protection.
— Duma, at the castle
Seeing all of these smiles reminds me of the paradise I once envisioned for my people. Isn't it lovely, Brother?
— Mila, at the castle
These humans are all so sickeningly carefree... If this is truly what human wisdom inspires, it should be feared.
— Duma, at the castle
You want this candy? Then show me your strength, and hold nothing ba— Mila, wait! You can't just give it away!

Duma: To think a day would come when we could enjoy ourselves like this...
Mila: Indeed, it is truly a wonder.

— On the character status screen

Duo conversation

Mila: I must say, dear brother...you wear that costume well!
Duma: Ugh. Why must we debase ourselves? It only diminishes our godly authority.
Mila: Haha. We are in a different world. To these people, who know us not, we pass as human revelers.
Duma: So it is reverence they lack... Tell me, Mila. If not gods, who do the humans honor with their harvest festival?
Duma: From what I can tell, it is not held to honor anyone specific, but rather to give thanks to the land for its bounty.
Mila: In that case, what possible reason could there be for wearing these ridiculous outfits?
Mila: We will have to find that out together. The human mind never fails to conjure up the most curious of ideas. Does it not excite you to wear something different for once? I find this all to be rather invigorating. I was once bored with life, unable to find any stimulus that could stir even the faintest feelings in my heart. This costume and festival, though... They are like a breath of fresh air that reminds me of the joy of being alive.
Duma: Absurd. The hearts of gods must not be so fickle as to be swayed by mere festivals such as this. And yet...
Mila: And yet?
Duma: My mind must be starting to go, for I find myself unable to deny that your enjoyment of this silliness pleases me.
Mila: Duma...
Duma: As you have observed, today we join this festival in the attire of ordinary revelers. Thus, let us act accordingly. Take my hand, Sister. These humans will be hard-pressed to tell us apart from any other merry pair.
Mila: I would like that very much, Brother.

— Duo conversation

Level 40 quote

Duma: The harvest is a blessing that sustains life. Surely this festival is meant to extol you and you alone, Sister?
Mila: Are you regretting my invitation? You never did have patience for humans who enjoyed anything other than war.
Duma: If you speak of Rigel and Zofia, then that is in the past. We have already entrusted Valentia to its heroes.
Mila: Indeed, and so it shall be. They are, after all, the ones who corrected our courses when we went astray.
Duma: Yet my ideals remain unchanged: war was, is, and always will be necessary for humans to mete out true justice.
Mila: As do mine: love was, is, and always will be necessary for gods to bless and guide the people from on high.
Duma: And humans must find a place for themselves somewhere in between. Until then...let us enjoy the harvest.

Level-up quotes

Brother... You must not let humans continue to think might makes right. The gift of love is for one and all.
— Mila, when gaining 1–2 stats from a level-up
To trick, or to treat...but to whom, and for what reason? The human mind is as inscrutable as ever.
— Duma, when gaining 3–4 stats from a level-up
Very good! As arbiters of this festival, we shall offer up a prayer for unlimited blessings and unending struggle!
— Duma, when gaining 5–6 stats from a level-up
Excessive displays of emotion can be dangerous for dragons, so my brother and I typically refrain from them.
