Colwyn
- Prince Colwyn: The reward is freedom... and fame!
- Torquil: Freedom? We have it! And fame? Nah. It's an empty purse. Count it, go broke. Eat it, go hungry. Seek it, go mad!
- Ergo: Wait! Wait for me. I've just remembered, I have urgent business in this direction.
- Prince Colwyn: What business?
- Ergo: Staying alive.
- Prince Colwyn: The forest is not safe. You best travel with us.
- Ergo: Me travel with you? Do you know who I am?
- Prince Colwyn: No.
- Ergo: I am Ergo the magnificent. Short in stature, tall in power, narrow of purpose and wide of vision. And I do not travel with peasants and beggars. Goodbye!
- Seer: The temple is at the center of the swamp where three trees grow as one.
- Prince Colwyn: How can anything grow in that place? It smells of death.
- Ynyr: Death and power are close cousins.
- Torquil: I don't think I like your relatives, old man.
- Prince Colwyn: You've been with us for a long way now.
- Rell the Cyclops: Since the beginning. When I learned that the old one had come down, I knew that the time had come.
- Prince Colwyn: Join us then. All men need company.
- Rell the Cyclops: Yes, all men.
- [they shake hands]
- Torquil: [Colwyn gives the king's key to Torquil to rid himself of his manacles] I thought I might keep them as a momento of our journey.
- Prince Colwyn: Well, the key is yours.
- Torquil: Only the king and his Lord Marshall carry this key!
- Prince Colwyn: Right.
- [Torquil laughs realizing he's just been appointed Lord Marshall]
- Princess Lyssa: My father says that good fighters make bad husbands.
- Prince Colwyn: Well, that depends.
- Princess Lyssa: On what?
- Prince Colwyn: On whether you expect a husband to follow you around. Jump every time you clap your hands.
- Princess Lyssa: Wouldn't you jump for me? No of course not. You're a warrior.
- Ynyr: The beast has many weapons. This was one of them. A changeling.
- [Looks at Rell]
- Ynyr: How did you know?
- Rell the Cyclops: I found the seer's body in the quicksand.
- Prince Colwyn: He gave his life for us.
- Titch: He was my only family.
- Prince Colwyn: We're your family now.
- [Ynyr leaves to go see The Widow of the Web]
- Ynyr: From here, I go on alone.
- Prince Colwyn: I'm going with you.
- Ynyr: No. If two approach, she would certainly kill both. Alone, I may have a chance.
- Torquil: Each to his fate, Colwyn.
- Ynyr: Yes... Yes, each to his fate.
- Prince Colwyn: Who are you?
- Ynyr: I am Ynyr.
- Prince Colwyn: The old one?
- Ynyr: Well, not as old as all that.
- Prince Colwyn: You've come down from the Granite Mountains?
- Ynyr: Yes. I'm needed now.
- Torquil: Silence! You're surrounded by a hundred men.
- Prince Colwyn: A hundred is not enough.
- Torquil: Well what have we here? A fighter?
- Prince Colwyn: Besides you're short by about ninety men.
- Prince Colwyn: Would you follow a king to the black fortress?
- Torquil: Now I know you're a lunatic. I wouldn't follow me own father to the black fortress.
- [Colwyn and Lyssa meet for the first time]
- Princess Lyssa: I've chosen well.
- Prince Colwyn: So have I.
- [Ynyr has fixed Colwyn's wounds and starts to leave]
- Prince Colwyn: Lyssa?
- Ynyr: They will hold her in the Black Fortress.
- Prince Colwyn: Can you lead me to it?
- Ynyr: You must have help.
- Prince Colwyn: I'll find men on the way.
- Prince Colwyn: Now we have no way to find the fortress.
- Ynyr: There is one who might help.
- Prince Colwyn: Who?
- Ynyr: The Widow of the Web.
- Torquil: That creature helps no one. For none who go there return.
- Ynyr: She has great powers.
- Torquil: Yeah, to kill.
- Ynyr: She may not kill me. For I know her name.
- Torquil: Her name is death.
- Ynyr: She had another name once. An ancient and powerful name.
- [Torquil has a look of disbelief and this gets Ynyr mad]
- Ynyr: We all risk our lives on this journey. My risk is no greater than yours. I must try.
- Rell the Cyclops: I must remain here.
- Prince Colwyn: Is it time?
- Prince Colwyn: [Rell nodds] You've done enough Rell. Stay here.
- Rell the Cyclops: [they shake hands] Each to his fate.
- Prince Colwyn: Each to his fate.
- Ergo: There was a difference of opinion concerning a gooseberry pie. The man left it sitting on his windowsill. What did he expect?
- Prince Colwyn: Perhaps he expected to eat it.
- Eirig: We sent to you for help.
- Turold: None came.
- Eirig: Twenty men were dispatched to you.
- Turold: We lost three hundred getting here.
- Eirig: I didn't choose this marriage, Turold.
- Turold: Nor did I Eirig.
- Prince Colwyn: I chose it. Your daughter chose it. It'll be done.
- Eirig: Can you lead this army with mine against the slayers?
- Prince Colwyn: Whatever army I have I'll lead against them. Till I've won, or am dead.
- [Colwyn and Ergo meet Torquil and his gang for the first time]
- Ergo: Robbers.
- Prince Colwyn: They're men. We don't know yet whether they're robbers.
- Ergo: Faces that ugly could only belong to robbers. Don't worry, I'll turn them all into pigs.
- [Slayers are attacking the castle]
- Prince Colwyn: The slayers.
- Turold: Arm yourselves.
- Princess Lyssa: We'll fight together.
- Prince Colwyn: No. Is there a safe way out of the castle?
- Eirig: An underground passage.
- [Lyssa hugs her father]
- Eirig: Go!
