Rosella (Hoyle I)


 * "Have I spoken to you of my perilous quest into Tamir? 'Tis not a story for the faint-hearted! Indeed, questing is always a dangerous venture, not to be undertaken lightly."
 * Questing is a family tradition in Daventry. My father quested to gain the throne of Daventry, and rescued Mother from the evil Hagatha. And Alexander, my brother, saved me from a foul dragon!
 * Indeed, questing is the noblest adventure of all! Not for riches or fame should one quest in a faraway land, but to aid others.
 * I have always considered Daventry to be an excellent location for questing. There are always wrongs to be righted, and noble deeds to be done.
 * 'Tis interesting indeed, my friend.
 * I wish I were a better card player, but as I must spend so much so much time on quests, I do not have the time to learn new card games.
 * 'Tis beneath the stature of the Princess of the Realm to concern herself with mere gold and silver, Colonel.
 * I never concern myself with gold and silver, Colonel. 'Tis the occupation of the Castle Treasurer, not a Princess of Daventry.
 * I should tell my father about these flying ships of yours, Jerry! Perhaps this can explain that large metal object that crashed into the moat last year...
 * Must you speak so of the ladies of your aquaintance, Sir Lawrence? 'Tis most unseemly!
 * I would never speak of my dearest Edgar the way you speak of your ladies, Lawrence.
 * Grandfather was a fine knight, as his father was before him. Did you know that Great-Grandfather defeated the evil Dragon of Herenna?
 * My grandfather is an excellent knight, of one of the finest in the realm. He was so proud when my father was chosen to succeed King Edward the Benovolent!
 * I could be exploring strange lands on a new quest, instead of sitting here.
 * 'Tis most strange to me, Sir Bonds, that the knights of your land are called policemen!
 * Indeed, you do seem to be a most skilled knight your realm, Sir Bonds.
 * In truth, I am not very skilled at mathematics and philosophy.
 * I fear I have not studies much of mathematics. Rather, I have spent most of my schooling learning the history of Daventry.
 * I do agree with you, Sir Lenny, that schooling is important. Why, without it, how would one know how to deal with dragons and other creatures.
 * I myself have studied many long hours, learning the history of Daventry and other realms.
 * In Daventry, we often have feasts at the castle. In truth, merely thinking of this is making me hungry...
 * In truth, Daventry will always be my home. 'Tis a kingdom that you may visit and leave, but you shall never forget her beauty.
 * I cannot envision living anywhere other than Daventry, Father. 'Twill always be my home, no matter where my adventures may lead.
 * In Daventry, one finds exercise in running from Dragons and other creatures!
 * Climbing mountains and questing in faraway lands is my usual form of exercise.
 * I have also read many fine books, Mistress Cassie. Perhaps you should visit our castle, where you might find many excellent books in our library.
 * The library of Daventry Castle holds many fine books, from history of Daventry to best methods for defeating dragons. I myself read many of those books.
