“Yeah, well, that's what you said the last time it did this, and it was doing it that time too,' Tiercel said waspishly.Clear as mud,' Harrier muttered.”

“Harrier twisted himself sideways on his saddle to stare at him [Tiercel]. 'You had a vision,' he said flaty.Yes. No. I don't know. I...Yes. No.”

“You jackass. We're all going to die here. You know that, right?' Harrier said.Yeah," Eugens said shakily. '...Guess I might as well die here with you as out on the desert with a bunch of other jackasses.”

“Harrier says the Wild Magic is as annoying as a goat. And the only other Wildmage either of us has ever met kept hitting him with a wooden spoon. Wildmages aren't like, oh - like Kellen and Idalia and Vestakia the Redeemed in The Book of the Light. They're people.' [Tiercel Rolfort]”

“[Harrier] locked eyes with Zanattar. He couldn't remember another time in his life when he'd been this angry and hadn't hit something.”

“Adventure, yeah. I guess that's what you call it when everybody comes back alive.”

“Getting angry over something that won't change is like seeing what happens if you hit your hand with a hammer over and over again, and being surprised each time when it hurts. So you might as well stop doing it.”
