Quotes 

• Soren : Why didn"t you tell me?

  Ezylryb : What difference does it make what I call myself?

  Soren : Because Lyze of Kiel was my hero.

  Ezylryb : Yes, well, fancy it must be hard meeting your hero and seeing that he"s real, not a myth.

  Soren : You"re just, you"re just not...

  Ezylryb : What did you expect? Some Tyto Alba with gleaming armour and battle claws, the moon rising behind him?

  Soren : Uh...

  Ezylryb : Well, this is what it looks like when you"ve actually fought in battle. It"s not glorious, it"s not beautiful, it"s not even heroic. It"s merely doing what"s right, and doing it again and again, even if someday you look like this.

• Gylfie : Soren, we did it.

  Soren : Yeah. Yeah, I guess we did. I just hope Allomere finds the owlets.

  Ezylryb : Oh, to be a young owl with a taste for adventure, arriving at The Tree for the first time. Well done to hold your own in there. Some more nice strong gizzards. The Tree always needs them.

  Soren : He is one strange owl.

  Gylfie : I think he might be missing a few talons.

  Otulissa : And a good bath. Gross old owl.

• Soren : I"m not letting you hurt one more soul!

  Metalbeak : Oh, you"re not letting me? Oh, what a pity to waste such a strong, young and confident Tyto.

  Ezylryb : No, Soren!

  Metalbeak : Oh, you know this sad old owl?

  Soren : He"s my teacher. My hero.

  Metalbeak : Well, your hero can teach you one last lesson about Pure Ones" strength...

  Nyra : [restraining Ezylryb]  Don"t move.

  Metalbeak : ...by letting you watch him die.

• Ezylryb : Feel the gutters, the currents in the rain! A scupper! A swillage! Baggywrinkles!

  Otulissa : Baggywrinkles? He could have at least given us a vocabulary list.

• Metalbeak : Well, the legendary Lyze of Kiel. Once again, it"s come down to just you and me. At last, I can take my revenge for this.

  [Indicates helmet] 

  Ezylryb : Hmm. You should thank me. It appears to be an improvement.

• Soren : So you wrote The Chronicle of the Battle of the Ice Claws?

  Ezylryb : Uh, I - I think so. Well, actually, yes. I did.

  Soren : Were you there?

  Ezylryb : Yes.

  Soren : What, as a scribe?

  Ezylryb : Um... Well, no, as a soldier. As the, I guess you could say, leader of all the soldiers.

  Soren : [quietly]  You"re Lyze of Kiel.
