- Hrímil Frost-heart says, "You forget yourself, Warlord. I rule Gundabad!"
- Hrímil Frost-heart says, "I am disappointed, Dushtalbúk. I have been meeting with Gorgar in secret to keep him under control."
- Hrímil Frost-heart says, "If you cannot perform your duties without being overcome with jealousy like a petulant child, perhaps you need the same treatment!"

- Loknashra says, "Drugoth... you were unable to take over my body, but your presence seems to have protected me from THIS fate."
- Loknashra says, "The Angmarim wanted nothing more than a vessel for their master, the dwarves want to slaughter us and take our home, and now the Dragon has taken away our free will."
- Loknashra says, "I have been betrayed at every turn, and am now surrounded by enemies. So be it!"
