- The Reason We Fight
In the second vision:
Zal'ik: "Nhalan, you speak of treason! Do you want the Yokudans to come here, pillage everything we've built, murder us all? Do you want that?" Nhalan: "Better a quick death to Yokudan steel than a lifetime as slaves to those creatures. We should call on the stars for protection―as our ancestors did―and have nothing to do with these Nereids and their sorcery!" Zal'ik: "I've heard enough. Take him to Shada."
In the third vision:
Zal'ik: "This barrier should keep the Yokudans out while we finalize the ritual with Shada. The sacrifice you make by staying behind to guard it is appreciated, Mahvia." Mahvia: "Don't thank me. Thank those who offered themselves for my … experiments. The creature they gave life to will protect this barrier for eternity." Zal'ik: "See that it does. That creature's magic keeps this barrier held in place. It is the only thing that can keep the Yokudans out."
When arriving at his remains:
Shada: "With this binding, our pact is sealed. Are you ready to pledge your lives to me and receive in return the strength to drive the invaders from your doors? Zal'ik: "I will not permit our people to be slaughtered in their very homes. Do with us what you will, and grant us victory this day!" Shada: "Then I take your soul and the souls of all those present to seal this oath. So long as these phylacteries lie undisturbed, our oath will remain unbroken and your soul will be at rest. Now, let the waters of this city flow with strength for its people. Let them drink and drive back the Yokudans. Rest well, Zal'ik, and know that today you have saved your people from certain destruction."
