Quotes
-
Prince Colwyn : The reward is freedom... and fame!
Torquil : Freedom? We have it! And fame? Nah. It's an empty purse. Count it, go broke. Eat it, go hungry. Seek it, go mad!
-
Ergo : Wait! Wait for me. I've just remembered, I have urgent business in this direction.
Prince Colwyn : What business?
Ergo : Staying alive.
-
Seer : The temple is at the center of the swamp where three trees grow as one.
Prince Colwyn : How can anything grow in that place? It smells of death.
Ynyr : Death and power are close cousins.
Torquil : I don't think I like your relatives, old man.
-
Prince Colwyn : The forest is not safe. You best travel with us.
Ergo : Me travel with you? Do you know who I am?
Prince Colwyn : No.
Ergo : I am Ergo the magnificent. Short in stature, tall in power, narrow of purpose and wide of vision. And I do not travel with peasants and beggars. Goodbye!
-
Prince Colwyn : You've been with us for a long way now.
Rell the Cyclops : Since the beginning. When I learned that the old one had come down, I knew that the time had come.
Prince Colwyn : Join us then. All men need company.
Rell the Cyclops : Yes, all men.
[they shake hands]
-
Torquil : [Colwyn gives the king's key to Torquil to rid himself of his manacles] I thought I might keep them as a momento of our journey.
Prince Colwyn : Well, the key is yours.
Torquil : Only the king and his Lord Marshall carry this key!
Prince Colwyn : Right.
[Torquil laughs realizing he's just been appointed Lord Marshall]
-
Princess Lyssa : My father says that good fighters make bad husbands.
Prince Colwyn : Well, that depends.
Princess Lyssa : On what?
Prince Colwyn : On whether you expect a husband to follow you around. Jump every time you clap your hands.
Princess Lyssa : Wouldn't you jump for me? No of course not. You're a warrior.
-
Ynyr : The beast has many weapons. This was one of them. A changeling.
[Looks at Rell]
Ynyr : How did you know?
Rell the Cyclops : I found the seer's body in the quicksand.
Prince Colwyn : He gave his life for us.
Titch : He was my only family.
Prince Colwyn : We're your family now.
-
Prince Colwyn : Who are you?
Ynyr : I am Ynyr.
Prince Colwyn : The old one?
Ynyr : Well, not as old as all that.
Prince Colwyn : You've come down from the Granite Mountains?
Ynyr : Yes. I'm needed now.
-
Prince Colwyn : Would you follow a king to the black fortress?
Torquil : Now I know you're a lunatic. I wouldn't follow me own father to the black fortress.
-
[Ynyr leaves to go see The Widow of the Web]
Ynyr : From here, I go on alone.
Prince Colwyn : I'm going with you.
Ynyr : No. If two approach, she would certainly kill both. Alone, I may have a chance.
Torquil : Each to his fate, Colwyn.
Ynyr : Yes... Yes, each to his fate.
-
[Colwyn and Lyssa meet for the first time]
Princess Lyssa : I've chosen well.
Prince Colwyn : So have I.
-
[Ynyr has fixed Colwyn's wounds and starts to leave]
Prince Colwyn : Lyssa?
Ynyr : They will hold her in the Black Fortress.
Prince Colwyn : Can you lead me to it?
Ynyr : You must have help.
Prince Colwyn : I'll find men on the way.
-
Torquil : Silence! You're surrounded by a hundred men.
Prince Colwyn : A hundred is not enough.
Torquil : Well what have we here? A fighter?
Prince Colwyn : Besides you're short by about ninety men.
-
Ergo : There was a difference of opinion concerning a gooseberry pie. The man left it sitting on his windowsill. What did he expect?
Prince Colwyn : Perhaps he expected to eat it.
-
Eirig : We sent to you for help.
Turold : None came.
Eirig : Twenty men were dispatched to you.
Turold : We lost three hundred getting here.
Eirig : I didn't choose this marriage, Turold.
Turold : Nor did I Eirig.
Prince Colwyn : I chose it. Your daughter chose it. It'll be done.
Eirig : Can you lead this army with mine against the slayers?
Prince Colwyn : Whatever army I have I'll lead against them. Till I've won, or am dead.
-
[Colwyn and Ergo meet Torquil and his gang for the first time]
Ergo : Robbers.
Prince Colwyn : They're men. We don't know yet whether they're robbers.
Ergo : Faces that ugly could only belong to robbers. Don't worry, I'll turn them all into pigs.
-
[Slayers are attacking the castle]
Prince Colwyn : The slayers.
Turold : Arm yourselves.
Princess Lyssa : We'll fight together.
Prince Colwyn : No. Is there a safe way out of the castle?
Eirig : An underground passage.
[Lyssa hugs her father]
Eirig : Go!
-
[Colwyn and Lyssa are trying to escape from the slayers]
Princess Lyssa : My place is with you.
Prince Colwyn : Do you love me?
Princess Lyssa : Of course I love you.
Prince Colwyn : Then go.
[they kiss]
Princess Lyssa : Colwyn, hurry back to me.
-
Prince Colwyn : Lyssa!
Ynyr : She's alive.
Prince Colwyn : Where?
Ynyr : Stay still.
Prince Colwyn : Where?
Ynyr : For now, beyond your reach.
-
Ynyr : Well, I too was young once. I too loved as you do. But your love will be luckier than mine. What I told you was that I knew how to find the fortress and that is by seeking the vision of the blind emerald seer.
Prince Colwyn : But his place isn't known either.
Ynyr : It is known to me. It is a day's journey from here. Come.
-
Torquil : I don't kill men without good reason.
Prince Colwyn : Nor do I. And be thankful for it.
-
Velta : You must eat something.
Prince Colwyn : I'm not hungry.
Velta : Please. For me?
[Colwyn accepts]
Prince Colwyn : Thank you.
-
Velta : Let me comfort you.
Prince Colwyn : I can't accept comfort when she has none.
Velta : You'll not then?
Prince Colwyn : I cannot.
[Velta blinks her eyes and reveals that she's a changling]
Velta : My master says make him betray her. If not, then kill him. Yes, he is my master. These talons were a heartbeat away from your throat. I could've killed you in an instant... but in the hour that I knew you, I loved you.
-
Prince Colwyn : Now we have no way to find the fortress.
Ynyr : There is one who might help.
Prince Colwyn : Who?
Ynyr : The Widow of the Web.
Torquil : That creature helps no one. For none who go there return.
Ynyr : She has great powers.
Torquil : Yeah, to kill.
Ynyr : She may not kill me. For I know her name.
Torquil : Her name is death.
Ynyr : She had another name once. An ancient and powerful name.
[Torquil has a look of disbelief and this gets Ynyr mad]
Ynyr : We all risk our lives on this journey. My risk is no greater than yours. I must try.
-
Prince Colwyn : The glave is nothing but an ancient symbol. It doesn't really exist.
Ynyr : It exists. Up there in a cave on the highest peak.
-
Torquil : Only the king and his lord marshall have the keys to these manicles. You don't look like the lord marshall.
Prince Colwyn : No.
Torquil : You look about the right age to be Turold's son.
Prince Colwyn : Exact age.
-
Rell the Cyclops : I must remain here.
Prince Colwyn : Is it time?
Prince Colwyn : [Rell nodds] You've done enough Rell. Stay here.
Rell the Cyclops : [they shake hands] Each to his fate.
Prince Colwyn : Each to his fate.
-
Prince Colwyn : [looking at Torquil and his men] You're escaped prisoners
Torquil : Every one of us. Thieves, fighters, bandits and brawlers!
