“	Yeah. I made it happen… only after brainwashing the citizens, getting rid of anyone in my way, and ridding the world of any free will. The irony. After crushing the Evil Gods—my eternal enemies—I ended up doing their job for them. In the ancient days, I would sometimes think I wanted to be defeated… Then maybe everything would end. Maybe I could end a life where I was constantly feared by others. Maybe I could break away the chains that bound me toward this way of life. …I got what I deserved. I knew that, but I couldn’t handle being alone.	„
	~ Ard to Lizer

“	All roads lead to despair. That is the way of life for a pitiful man. In complete solitude is he. For there are those who follow his lead But none to rule together with him. There is not one who understands. All are eager to leave his side. Cast away by his one and only friend, He sinks into a sea of madness and isolation. Rest without peace. Drown in anguish and despair. That which guides this tale. —Private Kingdom—the Story of a Lonely King!	„
	~ Ard chanting the incantation of his Original, his greatest and strongest magic

“	You’re right. People’s hearts are fickle. All emotions disappear at some point. But… who cares if love isn’t forever? Any nihilist who insists that love has no value because it’s fleeting is a fool. Even if a catastrophic future is to follow, the glimmer of love is no less beautiful. Wouldn’t you say that love’s transience makes it more precious and irreplaceable? You excel at reading people’s true nature. Your skill in infiltrating Lizer’s heart and using him for your machinations was impressive… but your words are mere sophistry. Fools are easy to deceive, but know that there are no fools here now.	„
	~ Ard to Mephisto
