"He has yet to live for even twenty years, but is already a leader among the younger Soryans. Shaine has an instinctive grasp of the power and is growing stronger every day. However, his overconfidence needs to be tempered. Although he is almost as good as he thinks he is, Shaine still has much to learn."
~Sister Nayala

"This boy exudes the true essence of the Soryan Order. Arrogance, lack of discipline, and disrespect. Still, these are qualities we can use to our advantage. Although powerful, he is utterly predictable."
~Most High Brother Maethias Duraine 

"The young Holy Brother chosen to work with us is very much the embodiment of the Holy Order. Rigid, condescending and almost completely wrapped up in his faith. Hopefully there is still a chance to reach this one."
~Sister Nayala

"Anton is exactly what we need for the difficult road ahead. He is a true believer, powerful and meticulous with his magic, and most importantly, unquestioningly loyal. If we can get the Soryans to trust him we may learn what we need to rid ourselves of them."
~Most High Brother Maethias Duraine

"The Ambassador from Kelland is a savvy politician. He is always looking, always watching to learn anything that can give his nation leverage in our trade agreements. Even so, Deven has been more than fair in teaching their science to us, and helping us with our projects."
~Sister Nayala

"Deven Trathe is an insidious snake. Always slithering underfoot trying to weasel secrets from the Holy Order or from the State. We need very little from the Kelland that we cannot get somewhere else. It is my opinion that we should sever trade with them as it is mostly a lopsided arrangement. Deven has recently been seen with the Soryans..."
~Most High Brother Maethias Duraine

"This Soryan woman has much to answer for. During the war she slew many pious Holy Brothers in cold blood. Now she is rewarded as a hero and given a position of leadership. Many in the public and in the Order of Nine (those cretinous fools) adore her, revere her even."

"Aeremon knows it is difficult to remain patient and keep to our plan, but outright violence is not the way this time. At least, not yet."
~Most High Brother Maethias Duraine

"Maethias Duraine is responsible for most of the truly horrific brutality perpetrated by the Holy Order in the last decades of the war."

"There can be no question of his heart ever changing. The atrocities that he will commit for his God have no limits. For this reason I have chosen to concentrate on the youth of both our Orders. It is only with them that change will ever come."
