"This is My City." -Said to many, but not as often as most Kindred assume.
"There are two conclusions you should immediately draw, MY Lord.
Firstly, that you are far too young and inexperienced to understand the relationship that forms between Elder who have known each other as long as we have. And secondly that your best course of action from here is to tear off your ear and present it to the Duchess as an apology for eavesdropping on her.
Yes, right now. No don’t apologise to me I consider it a Minor matter."
-To a young Invictus who overheard Baron Bautone calling Batavia ‘My Sword':
Quotes About
