## Houses

You worms escaped me before. I won't let that happen again!
vs  Jakka

> **Leonora**Well well, look who it is. I remember you, human.**Jakka**Who are you supposed to be? All scalies look the same to me.**Leonora**I hunted your little friends in the Emperor mountains. Back when you were walking around with the Princeling.**Jakka**I remember that fight well. It was a good one. I just don't remember you. Guess you're not special.**Leonora**Bah, why do I care if my prey knows who I am?**Jakka**Reptiles shouldn't speak. Shut up and die now.

vs  Jaheira

> **Leonora**Jaheira. Ever have you been a nasty thorn in my side.**Jaheira**I love making you miserable.**Leonora**Well, that all ends today.**Jaheira**Oh you're right about that. It all ends today...

vs  Ashe

> **Leonora**Ashe? You live!?**Ashe**By Pyrion's grace, I've been gifted a second chance.**Leonora**What are you babbling about? Have you finally gone mad?**Ashe**Oh no, I see things very clearly. Tendaris is Pyrion's chosen!**Leonora**Ah, now I see. You have failed. So you make up an excuse. You tell yourself it was all your Gods divine will. Quite clever.**Ashe**He is our God, dear sister.**Leonora**I never cared much for religion. I was never a believer at all. Might as well admit that to you before I skewer your heart.**Ashe**I was going to spare your life. Now I've changed my mind.

vs  Miriam

> **Miriam**Greetings, sister.**Leonora**Miriam, you traitor. How dare you turn your lance on me!?**Miriam**Nothing personal. Just siding with the winning team.**Leonora**You were always a bastard! Loyal only to yourself.**Miriam**Blah blah blah. Loyalty, honor. Why should I give a damn? What good is honor when you are rotting beneath the dirt? Survival is all that matters.**Leonora**If that is true, you should never have challenged me.**Miriam**There you go again. Blah blah. Shut up already and fight me. Your talking puts me to sleep.

###  Miriam

vs Any

Shut up and die already. I've no patience for fools.
vs  Jaheira
vs  Ashe

> **Miriam**Well well. Looks like you didn't die after all, little sister.**Ashe**Lord Pyrion watches over me. He keeps me safe from harm.**Miriam**How nice. That must make you sleep well at night.**Ashe**It does, actually.**Miriam**And now you've sided with the foreign invaders.**Ashe**King Tendaris is the true King. They serve him. I serve them.**Miriam**I always envied you, sister. Your faith was always strong. Must be nice to never think for yourself before you act.**Ashe**You're no longer my sister. Accept Pyrion's punishment.**Miriam**Yeah... I figured... Goodbye, Ashe.

###  Embla

vs Any

In the name of our Fire God. I sentence you to burn!
vs  Jaheira

> **Jaheira**Hello Embla, ready to die?**Embla**Today is not the day I meet my maker, Jaheira.**Jaheira**Oh? Plan on joining us?**Embla**Oh no. I'm no traitor. I am loyal to Ilrodan.**Jaheira**Such a shame. Give Pyrion my regards when you see him.

vs  Ashe

> **Embla**Well well, look who it is. A failure of a priestess.**Ashe**Lord Pyrion, bear witness! I shall destroy this sinner!**Embla**Oh, I'm a sinner now, am I? That's rich, even for you.**Ashe**Tendaris is the Lords chosen. Repent and accept your fate!**Embla**You're so pathetic, Ashe. You hide behind our Lord. You use his name as your personal shield.**Ashe**MAY HIS FLAMES WASH AWAY YOUR VILE CORRUPTION!**Embla**It seems further conversation is meaningless.

vs  Miriam

> **Embla**Miriam, you damn traitor. Pyrion will punish you for...**Miriam**Are you jealous?**Embla**...What?**Miriam**I'm on the winning side, now. Unlike you, who's about to die.

###  Ignatius

vs  Jakka

> **Ignatius**To face me directly, Commander Jakka, you are full of yourself.**Jakka**I like to settle matters with my own hands, General.**Ignatius**And that means invading our lands to save a fake prince? The lengths you go to fill that empty heart of yours, boy.**Jakka**What could a scaley like you possibly know of me?**Ignatius**Nations talk. We all know that you want Mortimer's head. You are putting so many lives at stake to sate your anger.**Jakka**You serve a corrupt prince, you could never understand. I do this to save my country from a power hungry king.**Ignatius**You remind me of myself, six hundred years ago, a fool. King Baathu killed my brother for a crime he did not commit. I grieved and conspired to kill him, I had nothing else in me.**Jakka**So you serve Ilrodan to go against his orders?**Ignatius**I gave up on vengeance. Doing so would have ruined Timaet. I set aside my personal feelings and served him and the people. A foolish soldier like you will
> bring nothing but death.**Jakka**And yet you bring war to Timaet yourself, General. Your words ring hollow, I will silence you for good.

vs  Jaheira

> **Jaheira**General Ignatius, I looked up to you when I was a child. You have served Timaet since my grandfather was young. Why would a man such as you join a disgraceful usurper?**Ignatius**I'm sorry, little Jaheira, but Ilrodan is the rightful King.**Jaheira**His father seemed to disagree. He chose Tendaris as his heir.**Ignatius**If Tendaris becomes King, the nation of Timaet will suffer. The nobility will never accept him, he's a half-blood. There will be constant strife, and we will know no peace.**Jaheira**So you're starting a war in the name of peace? Laughable.**Ignatius**It may seem that way to you child, but that is how it is.**Jaheira**All those stories I heard... They were just lies...**Ignatius**It is said you should never meet your heroes.**Jaheira**It's a good saying. Wish I had listened.

vs  Ashe

> **Ignatius**What do you think you're doing, little priestess.**Ashe**Serving my God, of course. What else?**Ignatius**Ashe, I've known you since you were a little girl. I do not wish to kill you.**Ashe**It's okay. Death by fire is the purest death.**Ignatius**I would never burn you alive.**Ashe**I wasn't talking about me.

vs  Miriam

> **Miriam**Ignatius. You're the only one here I don't totally hate. I'll give you a chance to walk away from this fight.**Ignatius**If you know me as well as you think, dear little Miriam. You know that won't happen.**Miriam**I know, but I felt obliged to extend you the courtesy.**Ignatius**Goodbye, my friend.**Miriam**Yeah... you too.
