"Very well."
"Over the past couple of days, I've had the opportunity to reflect and speak with those who matter to me and to all of Bundschuh. To cut to the chase, my own feelings aren't as important as the things at stake."
"Therefore, I offer my deepest apologies for the words spoken by me and threatening our diplomatic efforts. If you tell me to listen to the words of these Dragons, I will. If you tell me to provide them with every support, I will. As before, I and the people under my wing remain at the Platform's disposal as a fighting unit."

"Good... Good... In that regard, I hope we can have you assist in a field that will ensure your distance at least from this style of conflict... But please remember, it will always be there during the revolution.
"The paramilitary are still needing work done on the front lines, no doubt we'll be striking Imperial ships and still making moves against the mega-corporations no matter where their power structures lie. But that isn't done with willpower alone, we need to skill and self-determination of workers who are willing to fight in return for good conditions.
"The Labour Union of Bielefeld are facing a positioning issue! And also with the amount of people we're taking in from across Sirius looking for an alternative choice of work in the Platform, and we can't let them sit there without finding them enriching roles. The Platform are going to finance and supply this project to start production on a materials-trade hub, I'm assigning you with the VEC (Volunteer Engineer Corps) for this motion, I need you to work with them on establishing this industry. If we get this facility up, allies will have easier access to raw materials to support their local revolutions. The dragons being one that could benefit from a detachment from the GMG and reliable construction materials.
"We've got gas mining and refinery technology based on Bielefeld that we could source from. Theres also aluminum industries and experienced workers that we've liberated from Hammersee that are looking to put their effort in. If any Ghosts/Harii of Thuringia are needed, send the request as many are adept in engineering themselves.
"Maybe this role may suit you more for now, but there are classes you can take on Bruschal that discuss open matters regarding Anarchist-Platformism... I'm sorry I can't teach you, but I think Chevalier would at least be happier with you being on a position away from the front lines that demand this realpolitik clarity..."

"There's no choice but to accept this state of affairs and move forward. I will try to save lives where they can be saved, without violating your orders. This applies to civilians—you've seen what happens to the likes of MND at my hands when they refuse to listen to reason."
"I welcome the opportunity to begin constructing a new home. I believe many of my people on Handmaiden and Himbeersee will also find a use for their abilities there, separate from their current calling. I will begin immediately."
"Regarding studying, I will consider that option. I'm also confident that Falke can spare me some time. I'm particularly interested in the DWR period, and I can't imagine anyone better qualified to explain it."
"I'll send you a request if we require the presence of people from Thuringia... However, I believe Ashlander is capable of organizing the initial construction phase."
"I have a question for you. How do you rate our overall fighting ability based on the battles we have fought in the recent past?"
