Dialogue

Iridescent Legacy: Part I

...These are the words of the sovereign ruler Aj Nimalaj Chuq'ab Hun...
 
...Xbalanque's forces have broken through the Skyfire Circlet...
...No less than expected of the hero who leads humanity. Only a warrior of such prowess might earn the right to die at my feet...
 
...Their grasp of Phlogiston is still no more refined than the vishaps, yet it is enough to counteract our power — given the right circumstances...
 
...If the traitor had not handed the knowledge of fire to another race... No, even without the power of Phlogiston...
 
...He was right all along. The civilization we Dragons created has stagnated for too long. The grasping hands of humanity have ascended the Sacred Mountain and infringed upon our domain, yet we did not sense their climb...
 
...I too... How long has it been since I felt the thrill of combat with a warrior such as this...
 
...Haha, such a glorious feeling, should unbridled joy! My esteemed king, I entreat you — bear witness...

Iridescent Legacy: Part II

...These are the words of the sovereign ruler Aj Chojojik Kamikabal U'uk...
 
...Ah, such a frightful foe these humans are. So weak as to be unable to withstand a single blow, and yet even as their skin sloughs off their corroding corpses, more of their kin rise up to take their places...
 
...Do they feel no fear? Do they not tremble in the face of death? Does not pain afflict them? Nor despair consume their hearts?
 
...Ah, my lungs are pierced, to breathe is agony... Hehe, these humans who would end me, did the bright light that fills their eyes once shine from ours?
 
...Hah, indeed? My lord, that was a time when we had yet to abandon our glory...

Iridescent Legacy: Part III

...These are the words of the sovereign ruler Aj K'astajibal Cha'ama' Ho'o...
 
...Thrice-damned wretched worms... I wish not to gaze upon such... crude misuse of Phlogiston... Such shameful barbarism!
 
...Had my proposal not been rejected by the traitors... would you have...
 
...Wretched... vile... ignorant worms, sing your songs of joy! Expend your final breaths wailing praise for this short-lived reprieve...
 
...Soon, the Lord of Light and Heat will expunge you all in flame. While we... in the fire's embrace...
 
...My king... Great and glorious Xiuhcoatl, you alone must not...

Iridescent Legacy: Part IV

...These are the words of the sovereign ruler Ix Roq'ratik'obala' Ka'alahun...
 
...Fascinating... This leader of humans is more interesting than I had expected...
 
...He is not Dragonborn, yet he is no less powerful than the noblest among us... On the contrary, he is more powerful by far...
 
...Who is advising him? Incomprehensible. If a mere mortal could truly possess the wisdom to see through my schemes, why then prostrate before another...
 
...Have I exhausted the limits of my body and mind? Have my senses grown dull, blunted by the degradations imposed by rank and power... To have forgotten that humans, too...
 
...My king... we — your kin — are enfeebled, decayed... Why has it taken me so long to see...
