Sonja: No man may have me, unless he's beaten me in a fair fight. Kalidor: So, the only man that can have you, is one who's trying to kill you. That's logic. [Sonja goes and lies down. Kalidor picks up his sword and holds it to her throat] Kalidor: If you yield only to a conqueror, then prepared to be conquered. Sonja: Don't be a fool, I don't want to kill you. Kalidor: Try it.

Dialogue

Brytag: This is my land. All that pass through pay me tribute. Sonja: How much, Brytag? Brytag: Who mentioned money? Tribute, I said. The tender kind all women pay to Brytag. Sonja: Suppose, I don't. Suppose, instead, I open up that great, fat belly of yours?

Dialogue

Sonja: But why didn't you tell me who you were? Kalidor: You didn't seem to want a man's help. But you needed it, so that's why I followed you. I had to be sure you reached the talisman. Sonja: I see, I misunderstood. I thought you had another reason. Kalidor: I did. [He kisses her]

Dialogue

Sonja: What happened? Falkon: What happened? Queen Gedren attacked us is what happened. Sonja: Gedren? Queen Gedren? Falkon: That's right.

Falkon: So she knocked down the other half.

Dialogue

Dialogue

Brytag: Woman, I have fought 177 men. Only one survives, and he has no legs. You dare to mock Brytag? Sonja: That takes no daring... but when I've killed you. Brytag: When you've killed me! [laughs scornfully]

Dialogue

Ikol: Majesty, the Talisman is almost beyond control. We must bury it in the dark before it is too late. Queen Gedren: It'll be buried when I have no further use for it, and that time shall come with the end of time itself. Ikol: It will kill us all! Majesty, what do you want? Our vaults are brimming with gold. Great kingdoms live in terror of us! What more is there? Queen Gedren: The world, Ikol! Today we took the kingdom of Toktyl. But I have wider claims, and the Talisman will enforce them! Ikol: Madness. There will be no world.
