Quotations

"Hey, listen up! These Godwin traitors got no respect for justice. And sure, sometimes justice is just a little word. But sometimes justice is three feet of sharp steel smashing in your face. Now, let's go get 'em!"

"Meeting him on the battlefield... Toe-to-toe, eye-to-eye, axe-to-sword... It feels like my birthday! Ga ha ha!"

"I know fellow Falenans have got no business wantin' to bash each others' brains out... But, a general just can't help wantin' to fight a worthy opponent! It's in the blood!"

"All troops, get ready to kick some Armes keister! I dunno where they came from, but I know where they're goin'!"

"I think 'Mohawk Head Castle' would make a great name!"

"I suppose I can mingle with the mediocrities on occasion."

"Hear me filthy devils! My wrath shall rain upon you! To WAR!"

"How indubitably rare to run into visitors here beneath the earth."

"That FILTHY DEVIL Godwin! One cowardly, fiendish DEED after another! He played our House of Aethelbald for fools! He PILFERED everything we had! Godwin is a mere INSECT! A Hairball! A Zombie SNAIL! The sun's justice shall be BROUGHT DOWN UPON THE FILTHY DEVIL! Terribly sorry, seems I let myself get a tad agitated!"

"EVERY disaster that occurs in this WORLD can be traced BACK to those FILTHY GODWIN DEVILS! The recent increase in rats! Periodic FLOODING! UNSEASONABLY invasive PLANT GROWTHS! ALL GODWIN PLOTS!"
