- Baede, King of Kryta, once the king of Lion’s Arch...before the Orrian wave destroyed the city. The aged dignitary was renowned throughout the continent. Cobiah'd even dealt with him once or twice, though only through intermediaries and ambassadors. There was a tense peace between Kryta and Lion's Arch, broken on occasion by skirmishes or trade embargos, but generally respected. "We knew that was going to happen eventually. Baede'd been sick for years. Hell, the ministry's been ruling things while he degraded. Still...this could change the tenor of our treaty negotiations. He had four kids—who'd the old man of the mountain name as heir to the throne?" [...]
- "Three fine sons and daughters to choose from, and Baede chooses Edair? That...that..." Words failed him. [...]
- "I suppose those 'victories on the field of battle' earned his father's approval...or made Baede believe that Edair would be able to defend Kryta. None of the others ever joined the service as far as I know."
- "They're scholars. The oldest boy's an elementalist... What's the princess? The girl with the really curly hair?"
- Sykox concentrated. "Emilane. She's a ranger. Trained by the Tyrian Explorer’s Society. Spends most of her time in the northern forests, I think."
