1- Verity: Face-to-face with the most terrible abomination that ever lived, locked in a final death-grip as with my last breath I twist my blade one final time and shatter its black, burning heart. That is how I should *like* to meet my end. I expect my actual death will be slightly less noble and dramatic. But I can always try...
2- Aestar: I seem to "die" every day, the discorporation of my form has become such an expected and even necessary occurence that it barely even gives me pause for thought. But, of course, you mean *that* kind of death, the death of the soul? How do you rend the immortal, immutable and eternal and make it expendable, inconsequential and impotent? I know. And it is more horrible that you could imagine. But such words are not for you to hear. Enough of such things. Until I have exhausted every opportunity, followed every path and fought every last battle, I will endure. The day I stop fighting is the day I surrender myself to oblivion.
3- Lilith: "Yeah, yeah, it's not like anyone lives forever. I'll probably get shot in the head by some lucky little bastard with a las rifle that just happens to get through a small crack in the visor of my helmet, or whatever. Live fast, die young and leave a corpse that can't even be identified by dental records!"
4- "Sir Alan": "When the lord has determined that my time has come, I will die. But it is my choice how I meet that end."
5- Dura: "Dura won't die. Dura can't die. Don't worry, it would take a very very big rock to squish me!"
6- Princess Allaya/Sara: "Erm, apparently I'm immortal. It's so cool. Whenever I die I just wake up at home. Well, somewhere near it. Of course, I'm kinda naked when it happens...but hey"
7- Alaris: "My chosen path takes me closer to the hideous, the barbaric and the monstrous than any of my kind should rightly be. At every moment I live upon a knife-edge. To die to murderers, pirates or aliens is still death, but as long as I have my Waystone by my side always, I will be safe. Only the daemon should be feared, for to die to a daemon is to be enslaved and tortured forever. I would hope...no, pray...that to when my death comes it will be swift and final, and that my Waystone is to hand."
8- Shar'Grikan: "Die? I can't die. Well, ok, that's a lie. But I won't. No. That would be silly."
