“Through society as we know it may become so enamored of Surentûr, that they would place their trust in one who would lead them blindfolded on the path ahead, you must hearken to my words! There is a great darkness in this world that seeks everywhere it might look to find those whom it would devour.”

“Everywhere I look, I see discontent and restlessness. Ere Surentûr came, the people seemed at least somewhat content with what was allotted them in life; however, since the day he first arrived here, bringing prosperity and affluence, they now wish for more. Through this, they have become filled with a lust and greed for pleasures and worthless trinkets, making it so that they are no longer content with what they already have.”

“Men are weak. Their most regrettable feature is their quick satiety with good. Throughout history, a continuous pattern has developed: whenever evil's day hand and the world is at peace, they become discontented and restless, eventually finding some way to stir the old evil back to life. Their hearts are easily corrupted and can be led to treachery on a mere whim. It is like unto a tree, which can never be completely felled. For all our efforts, it continues to sprout forth dark fruit which falls like seeds into the hearts of men. It seems that no matter how many times we may fell the tree or hew off its branches, it grows swiftly anew and again spawns much evil with its darksome yield.”

“...You see, I’ve always swam against the grain. The ruling class who influences the crown always controlled what I did, how I did it, and when. But of lately, I’ve made my own choices that they don’t like it. They’re pressuring me, forcing me, really, to agree to certain protocols and even choosing certain bachelors. But I don’t want those bachelors. Or their choices. I want you. I need you. I need you to help me to understand my people. I need your help to fix wrongs. I need your support and advice, because I can’t do it alone.” - Royal Matchmaking Competition: Princess Qloey”

“For which is harder, helping someone in need or trampling over the weak? It takes a good leader to care about the least of us. For a leader is only as good as their lowliest subjects. - Royal Matchmaking Competition: Princess Qloey”
