Quotes

• "Of all my scions, she is the most devoted to her family."

- Marquis Aurialanus

• " You sent him WHERE?"

- Kaida, in outrage, when she finds out Melieke sent Tiberius Harkonus Augustus Marcellarius into the Undercity.

• " If my darling sister were Invictus... Well, she'll come round in a decade or two I'm sure. And if not, well, you aren't family so you won't see it, but I intend to have a smashingly good time."

- Tiberius Harkonus Augustus Marcellarius speaking fondly of his favourite brood mate.

• " Kaida endures. She's the once-and-future-Prince. I don't know how she does it, but whenever there's a Praxis seizure, or a purge, or the Brood kill the Prince, she's always standing off to one side, not involved exactly but ready to settle comfortably back into the big chair. I don't know how she does it, and that makes it genius."

- Raymond Vauxhall explaining Canberra's history.

• " Seriously, Tiberius, if I'm ever unfortunate enough to be Prince again, she's the first one up against the wall."

- Raymond Vauxhall privately, to Tiberius Harkonus Augustus Marcellarius.

• "If I ever hear you talk about any member of my family that way again, I will make sure you never see another sunset."

- Kaida, threatening a member of her court when she overheard them insulting her brother.

• "Hurt me, and you are going to feel pain, hurt my Allies and you are going to need an ambulance. Hurt my FAMILY, and I'm going to need a shovel."

- Kaida, when having a private conversation with her Sheriff Lupo.

• "Vous avez du chemin à faire ..."

(You have a ways to go.)

- Something Kaida would often mutter.

• K..."Does this matter really need my attention?"
• V..."No"
• K..."Non? Puis s'en vont!"

- Kaida, dismissing the subject that bothered her.

• "Kaida reminds me of a little of a house matron. Not enough to tear her throat out. I'll just have to take it out on the criminals."

-Lupo, during his tenure as Sheriff.

• "She was such a mild mannered prince when I first met her, but now she's become something different; perhaps the burden of all the boons she now owes is weighing on her mind, speeding along the Ventrue madness. In a way I feel sorry for her, sometimes."

- Lady J, when asked if she knew Kaida by a new arrival.

• "What an awful woman!"

- a shocked Connie Gambrell, after five minutes' acquaintance with Kaida.

• "What have we tied ourself to, Mr Hobbes."

- Mr Hobbes
