Ambient dialogue[edit]
- At the entrance to Atholma
- Olmakhan Nightwalker (1): Really? You expect me to believe that?
- Olmakhan Nightwalker (2): It's true! Old Stonehoof is out there!
- Olmakhan Nightwalker (1): A gazelle that defeated an entire hunting squad. With eyes that glowed with magical energy. Right.
- Olmakhan Nightwalker (2): Laugh all you want. I know it's true.
- At Ewyn's Retreat
- Siriol: Forgive yourself, Ewyn. You are home. You have laid us to rest.
- Lola: We were honored to fight by your side.
- Zephra: You don't have to carry our memories by yourself, Ewyn.
- Raast: Whispers of our adventures still echo in Elona. We're not forgotten.
- Siriol: I don't regret it, you know. Not one minute.
- Siriol: Sunsets splashing purples and magentas over shimmering dunes.
- Siriol: Befriending humans—who'd have thought! And fighting by your side.
- Siriol: I wouldn't trade it for the world.
- Zephra: It wasn't your fault, Ewyn.
- Lola: None of us saw it coming.
- Raast: A blur of scales, a flash of teeth—
- Lola: It could've been any of us.
- Ewyn: But it wasn't! It was all of you that paid the price. I did nothing but run.
- Siriol: We bought you time. You survived.
- Zephra: We know you would have done the same for us if we were the ones on high ground.
- Ewyn: I...I miss you all.
- At Olma's Legacy
- Olmakhan Cub: And so, Olma escaped the Flame Legion.
- Olmakhan Cub: And as Kalla advanced, the unsheathed sword cleaving against the flame of tyranny...
- Olmakhan Cub: Olma helped the others escape, a steadfast shield of the people.
- Olmakhan Sandshifter: By the ancestors, cub, how can you sound so bored!
- Olmakhan Cub: That's ancient history! Can I go play "Sand Monster and Heroes" yet?
- Olmakhan Sandshifter: Olma is the reason you know how to call the sand.
- Olmakhan Cub: Really? Okay, that's actually pretty cool.
- West of Olma's Legacy, on the cliffs
- Olmakhan Sandshifter: The far side of the island has grown dangerous.
- Olmakhan Lifebinder: How so?
- Olmakhan Sandshifter: The hydra Starcaller is more aggressive than ever. Someone should take care of that thing.
- At Skycavern Burial Grounds
- Glaw: I can't believe it. An elder, slain.
- Eres: It's been many generations since we paid the cost of war.
- Glaw: He acted without hesitation. Gave his life to save the others.
- Eres: His blood won't have been spilled in vain.
- Teg: Yesterday she yelled at me for leaving muddy paw prints on the linens. Today...she's gone.
- Hefin: I'm so sorry, little one.
- Teg: It's not fair.
- Hefin: No, it's not. But take comfort—she has joined the ancestors.
- Teg: But I want her here now.
