Looking back on our first meeting, it now seems that we were destined to cross paths from the start. You believe in every one of us, of course, and you give your all...to us all.

Level 40 quote

I've had some time to think since arriving here, and I keep coming back to this: Why me, of all people? The answer has eluded me so far, but perhaps the gods have seen fit to grant me some sort of respite here. I've learned much in my time here. Being surrounded by Heroes has revealed how far I have yet to go... But the voices that called me here, those who called to me with support and praise... I owe them a debt. Those voices filled me with a resolve I've not known previously. I have a duty to live up to their expectations. Even so, resolve alone is not enough. So I humbly request you allow me to continue leaning on your support.

Level 40 quote

The nations of Lycia have banded together to protect ourselves from threats from the outside and within. Our parents have sworn that all in the alliance fight as one, no matter who is attacked—or by whom. While our parents were swearing that oath, we children were assembled in another chamber... It was then that Hector called on us to swear an oath of our own, as he sliced his palm with his knife. Clasping cut palms is a famous custom of warriors—an oath of friendship sealed by lifeblood. My hand was the only one that met his. Our friendship began with that vow. When one is in danger, the other will risk everything to save him... That is the promise I made to Hector that day. I will draw from his strength as I take stewardship of Pherae.
