23. : It doesn't look like anyone's been here in a while. Perhaps people lost faith. Or... forgot about it.devnote
39. : I wanted to come here. To see if I felt anything that I hadn't done before. Now that I know what I know. Now that I know who I am.devnote
1. Player: And do you feel anything?
42. : I... I don't know. For so long I only felt what she wanted me to. Now I have to do it for myself, and I feel like I'm drowning.ORI_Shadowheart_State_RejectShar_SavedParents
38. Player: Good thing I taught you how to swim, then.ORI_Shadowheart_State_AbortedSkinnydipping = False, NIGHT_Shadowheart_Skinnydipping
126. : A very good thing. I don't know what I did to trick you into thinking I was worthy of you, but I'm glad it worked.

29. : I have my family back, and now I can't even look them in the eye. I don't deserve to be anyone's daughter.

37. : I can't be your Jenevelle. Not as you remember her.devnote
36. : Of course you can...
58. : No. I'd be turning my back on too much. Shadowheart is as much a part of who I am as Jenevelle; I can't just forget her - that's not what I do anymore.devnoteORI_Shadowheart_Knows_NamePreference
75. : Besides, Shadowheart still suits me - even better than before, perhaps. You can't cast a shadow without some light.
94. : Don't worry. I'm still your daughter... if you want me to be.
131. : I'll call you whatever you like, so long as you're happy. Arnell?

46. Player: They're not truly gone - remember the moon motes.
88. : I remember. But they can't comfort me. They can't give me advice. They can't tell me what I was like as a little girl.devnote
34. Player: You did what was necessary. You freed them, and yourself.
20. : But why does freedom have to feel like I've lost everything? Perhaps I could have saved them, or perhaps Shar would have helped me forget them. Instead, I've neither...devnote
31. Player: You made your choice - now you have to live with it.
2. : Perhaps not for long. The Absolute may yet put us out of our misery. I may see my parents again sooner than you think...devnote

67. : So much time's been lost already. Most of it, I can't even remember. And what I do remember... it would have been so much easier to just become a monster.
