Deceit By Dawn/Quotes

## Talk

You may hate me, but all that matters to me is House Rose. My family means more to me than my honor ever could. For the sake of our friendship, I will give you a quick death.
vs  Jakka

> **Samuel**To think it came to this.**Jakka**After everything we've been through, Samuel. We drank together, fought together, bled together. Out of everyone in this cruel, heartless world... You are the last person who I thought would betray us.**Samuel**All I did, I did for the future of House Rose.**Jakka**When did Mortimer buy your loyalties, Samuel? Were you his servant from the very beginning?**Samuel**He never bought me, Jakka. He merely made a promise that House Rose would survive.**Jakka**You would trust someone who killed his own brother? Baudimon would have made a much better king!**Samuel**Baudimon foolishly rushed toward his own doom. He should have listened to my advice. He should not have married that Lightbringer wench.**Jakka**I agree that Baud marrying Aylanda was a mistake... But that gave you no right to betray him, Samuel.**Samuel**Further words are meaningless. Ready yourself, Jakka. I will give you a quick death.**Jakka**And I will make sure your death is as agonizing as possible. Go to hell, old man!

vs  Lilinette

> **Samuel**Lilinette. My dearest granddaughter.**Lilinette**Grampy. Grampy! I can't believe your guts! You murdered Baudimon!**Samuel**I did not.**Lilinette**Maybe you didn't do the deed, but you're still guilty! Baudimon is dead, and you colluded against him! I can't believe I thought you were an honorable man!**Samuel**You may not understand now, but what I did was for the-**Lilinette**Don't you dare justify murder! 'House Rose this,' 'House Rose that,' it's always the same! To think House Rose's honor is reliant on butchery! We're just a bunch of savage, bloodthirsty demons!**Samuel**I'm sorry I let you down, Lily. The world is unkind to many. All great men must make difficult choices. That includes the one I'm about to make now.**Lilinette**You murdered Baudimon, and now you'll kill me, too? There's nothing left of you. You're a hollow, empty shell. I couldn't put a more fitting villain in one of my plays.

vs  Theodor

> **Samuel**Theodor. I don't understand. What context did I miss? You hated Baudimon, beyond a shadow of a doubt. Now you will defend him even if it means your death?**Theodor**You never did pay attention, uncle Samuel. I'm not here for Baudimon's sake, but Aylanda's. Even if I hated the man, I wouldn't disrespect my lady. But I don't hate Baudimon. I've grown up. I've matured. He was a better man than me, and he deserved Ayla's hand.**Samuel**If you agree to come back with me, Theodor... I will ensure Aylanda is wed to you, as you have earned.**Theodor**Heh. You never listen, uncle, and your eyes are truly blind. I will accompany my lady to the very end. But you... you have made her weep tears of sorrow. There is only one fate in store for you now...

vs  Christina

> **Samuel**Christina. Have you finally come to your senses? Return with me to House Rose. You don't belong here. Don't let your uncle Theodor or Lilinette deceive you.**Christina**I admired you, grandfather. I thought you were a man of god. In the end, you were a demon who killed his best friend. How can you even look at your reflection now?**Samuel**These are adult matters. They are hard to explain to a child.**Christina**You always say I'm too young to understand, grandfather. But I am not a little girl anymore. I'm not a child. And it sickens me to see you in this light... I always looked up to you.**Samuel**For what it's worth... I'm sorry I let you down, Christina. I had to put my House first.**Christina**This isn't about your House. It never was, grandfather. It's about your hatred of all Lightbringers. I will try to remember you as the good man you once were. Goodbye, grandfather...

vs  Aylanda

> **Samuel**Hmph. It all started with you, Lightbringer. Your people are poison. Your words are daggers.**Aylanda**Did you always hate me?**Samuel**You, yourself? Of course not. You are just some wench. But your bloodline? It is a grave threat to Andaron.**Aylanda**You've never seen me as a person. An individual. I'm just a lump of meat and a bloodline, in your eyes. You'd even kill a 'best friend' if it meant eliminating me.**Samuel**All Lightbringers are the same. Haughty. Brash. Serpents. I saw what your father did to this glorious country. I would never let you sink your devilish fangs into its people.**Aylanda**You truly are a worthless shell of a man, Samuel. I'll be sending you to visit the Great Beyond, now. When you get there, I hope Baudimon spits in your eye.

vs  Shom

> **Shom**You worthless piece of SHIT, Old Dog Samuel!**Samuel**Shom...**Shom**You cold-hearted bastard! You murdered Baudimon! I'll freeze you so solid that even Hell won't warm you up!

vs  Colter

> **Colter**Look who it is. 'Old Sam.' I suppose this is goodbye.**Samuel**I am surprised you would confront me head on, Colter.**Colter**I was planning on cutting your throat from behind... But I wanted to look into your eyes while you bled out.

vs  Thea

> **Thea**I really liked Baudimon. But I always hated you. Do me a favor and die while begging for mercy. I'd love to hear you scream.**Samuel**The children these days are truly fierce.

vs  Angelus

> **Angelus**I don't understand, Samuel. Wasn't Baud your best friend? I sang stories of our shared valor, our heroic exploits. But you... you turned out to be the song's villain!**Samuel**To be honest, I never did like your singing, Angelus. Always blathering on, prattling with that awful voice.**Angelus**What... hurtful words...**Samuel**Nobody else likes you, either. I'm doing the world a favor by getting rid of you.

vs  Fred

> **Fred**Samuel. Our Houses have always been rivals. In truth, I always looked up to you as a Knight.**Samuel**Fred...**Fred**I see now that my own admiration was misplaced. It seems House Rose is not beyond treachery.**Samuel**Bold words, considering Alexander's actions.**Fred**I will deal with him soon enough. But first, I shall send you off to the Great Beyond.**Samuel**You may try if you wish. We've sparred many times, but you've never beaten me.**Fred**Every dog has its day, you old bastard.

vs  Victoria

> **Victoria**Samuel! You piece of rotten wood! You half-dead ogre!**Samuel**Victoria. Seeing you this angry pains me greatly. I always liked you.**Victoria**Well let me tell you something buster, I'm sick of stuck-up old men like you ruining the beauty of the world by hurting other people just trying to live honorable and decent lives all because you want to aspire to some notion of 'greatness' that runs contrary to all that is good in the world even when it means killing good men like Baudimon who only wanted to help Andaron flourish with love and prosperity but you were so up your own bum that you didn't let him go about his business
> but instead plunged a dagger into his heart while he died not knowing why you betrayed him!!**Samuel**I have no idea what you're saying, Victoria. Goodbye.

vs  Dawn

> **Samuel**A newcomer to Jakka's army? Wait, that white hair... You're a Lightbringer?!**Dawn**You must be that miserable pissant who killed Baudimon. Greetings, brat of Rosella! You can call me your great-great-step-ancestor! Not that my name deserves to
> rest on your filthy tongue.**Samuel**Aylanda was supposed to be the last Lightbringer. Who are you, wench?**Dawn**Wench? WENCH?! You insipid little shitstain of a boy! I am Lady Dawn, mother of all Lightbringers! It is your greatest honor to die by my magic! I slew two Demon Emperors, and you will fall as well!**Samuel**Lady Dawn? I see. You must have emerged from... Mmm. An ancestor from the Regalia. You are strong. Defeating you will take everything I have...**Dawn**That's adorable. You actually think you have a chance. Let me show you the power of one of Joseph's Children!

###  Beatrice

vs Any

Out of my way, peasant! This is between me and my House!
vs  Jakka

> **Jakka**Beatrice! Samuel wouldn't have killed Baudimon on his own. Everything he did, you gave him a seal of approval! You're as guilty for Baud's death as Samuel himself!**Beatrice**Should I burst into tears and beg for forgiveness? Keep blathering. What's done is done. Baudimon is dead, and you will join him now!**Jakka**I don't think so. Instead, I'll send you to say hello! Apologize for making him miss his child's life!

vs  Lilinette

> **Beatrice**Lily. Are you sure you want to fight me? You can still come back to House Rose.**Lilinette**You're a monster, grand-aunt. A murderous, hateful witch. I'll never forgive you for killing Baudimon.**Beatrice**I know he was your friend. But don't you understand? There are bigger concerns in this world...**Lilinette**Spare me the lectures! I hate you, grand-aunt! When you die someday, I'll spit upon your grave!**Beatrice**I guess there's no getting through to you, Lilinette. This is goodbye.

vs  Theodor

> **Beatrice**Theo...**Theodor**Don't you 'Theo' me, mother. You've become a rotten rat. To think my own flesh and blood would be so vile. I cannot even stand to look at you.**Beatrice**Your uncle told me you hated Prince Baudimon. With him gone, the Lightbringer wench is yours for the taking. Why, then, do you hate me for eliminating your competition?**Theodor**Your words are poison. Your air is one of deceit. Baudimon was my rival, yes, but I lost to him, fairly. To lust after his wife, even in death... WHAT SORT OF MAN DO YOU TAKE ME TO BE?!**Beatrice**I...**Theodor**I love Aylanda, with all of my heart! All of my soul! And true love does not mean coveting another man's wife. It's no wonder you cannot understand my feelings. Perhaps you've never loved someone more than yourself. Your selfishness has brought your House to ruin!**Beatrice**Hateful child. I regret ever giving birth to you.

vs  Christina

> **Beatrice**Christina! When your mother hears about your betrayal...**Christina**Huh? I've done no such thing. You joined with a king-killer! Baudimon deserved to become the ruler of Andaron! But grandfather killed him. He killed a good man! Now what? You want to lead House Rose to a murderous future? I will not be a part of that.**Beatrice**You would choose to die here? With Jakka and his rebels? You are an honored child of House Rose! Don't throw away your future over some childish tantrum!**Christina**Everyone calls me a child. Frankly, it's demeaning. I might be young, but I'm not a damned fool. I still have eyes. I can tell right from wrong. Can you, great-aunt? Or has your heart rotted?**Beatrice**Tsk. I hope Penelope will forgive me for doing this... Striking you down will be the hardest choice I've ever made.**Christina**You would kill me while invoking my mother's name? Disgusting. The Divines will never forgive you, great-aunt Beatrice.**Beatrice**Goodbye, Christina. You made me do this.

###  Alexander

vs Any

Baudimon is dead. And soon all of you will follow him. Surrender now and I'll make this quick.
###  Caroline

vs Any

You cannot outrun us, rebels. Stand your ground and fight. Die with dignity!
