Peri/Dialogues

This page lists the dialogue lines for Peri.

 You've never been in a real apothecary, have you? This isn't some pharmacy run by mortal doctors. Careful what you touch - I work with sensitive ingredients.
Tara: I will! Promise. By the way, what exactly are you, Peri? A pixie?
Peri: I am a FAIRY! To call me a - diminutive - is an insult.
Tara: Sorry! Sorry! I have a lot to learn about Ravenwood Hollow.
Peri: Now that is a fact. By the way, thank you for the honey you gave us duing the Summer Festival. Honey makes a perfect reagent.
Tara: You're welcome. It's nice to get to know the fairy it went to!
Peri: If you ever need potion supplies, come visit me. My ingredients are the finest in Ravenwood Hollow.
 On occasion, I am tempted to reveal my identity to the rest of you humans. But then I remember how downright odd humans are. That League of the Mind, for example. Who would believe in that nonsense?
Tara: I didn't realize you kept up with the news in Fairhaven.
 Are the humans staying clear of the coven circle? It isn't safe for them. If you see anyone who isn't a witch pass through the brambles, you must tell me, witchling.

Peri: Yes. The Wellspring that you witches balance - it exists in the fae world. The human world is not, itself, magical. But magic bubbles up from elsewhere. That's the Gloaming. At its heart is the Wellspring.
Tara: But I still have so many questions...
 Tara: If the Wellspring is nearby, does that mean I can visit it?
 You have more questions, don't you?
Tara: Hey! There's a lot of information to digest!
Peri: True. Go on.
Tara: If the Gloaming is so dangerous, why do you live near it?
 Do you ever feel the Wellspring becoming unbalanced, witchling?
Tara: Uh, I don't think so? How would I feel that?
 Tara: When did you come here, Peri?
 I hear there is a wedding in your village. I suppose it's easy for humans to commit your lives to each other when your lives are so mercifully short.
Tara: Do the fae ever marry?
 Tara: Do you ever think about going home, Peri?
 I am confused about your why your village is choosing between two barely competent men to lead. Surely Lina or Amira could do a better job?
Tara: Yes, but they're not running.
 You must take care of your health. You're of no use to the coven if you're laid up in bed.
Tara: Oh, well I'm fine. Amira fixed me right up.
 Westley tells me someone in your village was accused of being a witch.
Tara: Yes, but it wasn't someone in our coven. I feel terrible. Sophia's completely innocent. Not that there's anything wrong with being… what we are.
 Tara: Before I met you, I thought fairies were… I don't know… glittery? And pink? And sweet?
 Sometimes, Aryel's antics are just too much. He is five hundred years old! Not five!

Peri: Feh. I have played for so many years that I need something new to keep the game fresh. Like a wager. Money, currings of faraway plants, a kiss… None of which I will ask of you.
 Violet has grown to look much like her mother. I hope that Gloria will see this resemblance one day…
Tara: You think we'll find Gloria?
 I am told the ferry no longer works. Why is this a problem? Can you not simply swim to the mainland?
Tara: That's a long swim. In very, very cold water.
Peri: Ah. Right. Perhaps try evolving wings?
 Tara: Hhhhnnngh. It's so cold in Fairhaven today. I got snow in my boots!
Peri: The snow will stop in a day or two, yes?
 Will you be providing a table of offerings to us at the Winter Feast?
Tara: Uh… tone-wise, this might not be the best time to leave public offerings for the fae. You know. In front of Otto.
 I don't envy Lina. She has had to carry more burdens than many of her ancestors who were High Priests and Priestesses.
Tara: And how many of those have you known?
Peri: Each Dahl who lies sleeping in the Fairhaven cemetery, I have known.
 So the two barely competent men are at each other's throats, hmm? Perhaps you should send all human men to another island. For safekeeping.
 In all my time here, the coven has always turned the season, despite any obstacles. But the challenge you face… it is extreme.
Tara: Thanks for the pep talk.
 I have heard the news. Otto met with a shadowy woman in the woods? But who?
Tara: You don't have any ideas?
Peri: Oh, witchling, I make it my business to know about shadowy women in the woods.

Tara: And did you grant their requests?
 Vanessa's resolve, her single-mindedness, her cleverness… Parts of her remind me of myself. It is startling. I wonder… have I ever sounded like her?
