The best quotes from ‘The Dragon Prince’ season 3
Episode 1, ‘Sol Regem’
Sol Regem: I smell death!
Dark Mage: You just expect humans to go back to the way things were before we had magic. When humans starved and struggled, helpless and pathetic. Back to a time when we were lesser beings!
Sol Regem: You are lesser beings.
Callum: He’s blind, so we don’t have to worry about his sense of sight.
Rayla: Exactly! That leaves only two senses we need to fool. Hearing and smell.
Callum: Wait, why are those the only senses we need to worry about?
Rayla: Well, if it gets to his sense of touch, we’re in big trouble. And sense of taste? Nice knowing ya!
Callum: So sneaking is out, running is out, fighting is out, what’s left??
Rayla: Burning to death?
Callum: Definitely out!
Rayla: Looks like it’s down to my least favorite course of action: Reason.
Episode 2, ‘The Crown’
Guard One: The king requests a tart of jelly!
Baker: Of course!
Ezran: May I have another?
Guard One: The king requests ANOTHER tart of jelly!
Ezran: You don’t have to repeat everything I say.
Guard Two: The king requests that you stop repeating!
Ezran: Uhh…
Guard Two: …I realized as soon as I said it.
Crow Master: You have 417 unread messages.
Callum: Wow, this must be the biggest tree in the world! What do you call it?
Rayla: A tree.
Claudia: Why are you stacking the bread like that?
Soren: It’s a bread sandwich.
Ezran: So what do you say, Bait? Be my regent?
Bait: (growls)
Ezran: I agree. You’d be a tyrant!
Ezran: I’m just a kid. I haven’t fought in any battles. I haven’t read many books of wisdom. I haven’t gone through the things that made my father the king he was. So I’ve decided that I don’t have to be the king my father was. My father made choices to keep fighting battles that started hundreds of years before he was born. To punish enemies for crimes their parents committed! I don’t want to be that kind of king.
Ezran: Katolis will not go to war. I’m sorry about what happened to your father, and what happened to mine. But we don’t have to avenge them. We don’t have to strike back. We can choose peace.
Opeli: Peace will require just as much strength as war. Are you prepared to defend it?
Ezran: Yes. I am.
Episode 3, ‘Ghost’
Callum: Oi mate! I’m an Earthblood elf! All my best mates are trees! “Mate is Earthblood for “friend”! High-four! Down low?
Rayla: No, we’re done.
Ezran: The dragon prince is alive! And he’s really cute, by the way.
Kazi: I was top of my class in linguistics! Although I don’t suppose a hand language would technically be linguistics. What would you call it? Finguistics?
Janai: I’m losing my patience. Say something!
Amaya: (signs)
Kazi: Um. Oh, my.
Janai: What did she say?
Kazi: If my interpretation is correct, and it is, she suggested an unusual way in which your body might accommodate your sword.
Janai: I suppose you think that’s funny?
Amaya: (nods)
Kazi: That’s a common sign for “Yes.”
Aaravos: Careful. If you tell the truth, you will lose her; you will need her soon.
Ethari: My heart goes out with this one.
Runaan: Don’t worry. I promise I will return your heart to you.
Janai: If you want to live, you have to look into the light!
Khessa: A human with a pure heart. How original.
Ethari: Runaan, the last time I made you one of these, it carried a message of death. This one will carry a message of life.
Episode 4, ‘The Midnight Desert’
Rayla: If you don’t stop pestering me about this right now, I’m going to give you a big feeling on the side of your head.
Kasef: I’m here to deliver an ultimatum. It means I’m forcing you to make a final decision.
Ezran: I know what an ultimatum is.
Rayla: Hi Nyx. My name’s Rayla. They call me Rayla. And I’m in a bad mood. Either you fly away now, or I’m going to use these blades to do something that’s going to cheer me up.
Ezran: Each one of these pieces is 500 people. Five hundred men and women. Some are moms and dads, and have kids waiting for them at home. All of these are sons and daughters. Sisters, brothers, friends. They’re real people, Bait. And after the battle… How can I let this happen?
Rayla: What is it? Why you staring at that thing?
Callum: Something’s so strangely familiar… Boomerang?
Nyx: Anyway, here’s the wonderwall.
Viren: I’m so sorry it’s come to this.
Ezran: No, you’re not.
Viren: No. I’m not.
Rayla: I’m not good enough, and I never will be.
Callum: Shut up!
Rayla: Wait, what?
Callum: Just shut up, you’re talking crazy. Just listen to me. You’re too good to feel this bad about yourself!
Episode 5, ‘Heroes and Masterminds’
Opeli: Viren, you are not above the law!
Viren: I’m afraid you have misjudged the situation terribly. I am the law.
Soren: We’re gonna have to walk across the bridge without anyone seeing you.
Ezran: How are we gonna do that?
Soren: Don’t worry. I brought a disguise.
Ezran: There’s no clothes in here.
Soren: Yeah! You climb in, and you’ll be disguised as ‘stuff in a sack!’
Guard: Soren, wait! The hay is glowing.
Soren: Yeah… Yeah, it is. So?
Guard: Nothing. It’s pretty neat.
Soren: Thanks, man. Hay’s the best.
Corvus: Credit where credit is due! Soren was the mastermind.
Soren: “Mastermind.” I like it. That can be my new nickname. It even rhymes! “Sor-ine the Mastermind.”
Corvus: That does not rhyme.
Nix: Soulfangs! Why did it have to be soulfangs?
Lujane: I was surprised to receive a message from Katolis. It’s not signed, but I assume it’s from the strapping young idiot? “Dear ‘Moon Lady…’” Ugh. But I am happy to help.
Episode 6, ‘Thunderfall’
Soren: What, you don’t want me to smoosh that thing?
Viren: Do not ‘smoosh’ the purple creature. Think of it as my animal familiar.
Soren: So, you’re saying you’ve adopted a little bug-pal?
Viren: Yes, Soren. He is ‘my little bug-pal.’
Kasef: Your brother, Soren. He’s a bit… quirky.
Claudia: Hmm. People usually say I’m the quirky one!
Kasef: And your father, is he talking to himself?
Soren: What? No, of course he’s not talking to himself. That’d be crazy! He’s talking to his little bug-pal.
Kasef: …Uh huh…
Avizandum: Leave! Today, of all days, I will spare you. But you must turn around and leave Xadia. Now!
Harrow: No.
Avizandum: Today is a special day, a day of life. Do not force me to make it a day of death! This is your last chance. Leave — or die!
Harrow: You never gave her that choice.
Claudia: We’re going to cross that border. After all, impassable is just another kind of passable.
Callum: See that spear? That was her spear, my mom’s. And my stepdad put it into his heart. How am I supposed to feel about that?
Rayla: I don’t know, Callum.
Callum: Glad? Happy that we got revenge? Or maybe regretful and sad, because…
Rayla: Because what?
Callum: Because that was Zym’s dad. I feel so sorry that this all happened…
Rayla: Me too, Callum. But look at them, playing together. That’s the miracle. That’s hope! They’re the ones that are going to break the cycle.
Episode 7, ‘Hearts of Cinder’
Soren: You think you’re so great, with your quietness, rugged battle stance, and your horse with kind eyes!
Aaravos: Is your wish to rule Xadia?
Viren: I wish for humanity to flourish! And it cannot flourish with a knife forever at its throat.
Khessa: You see, sister? You bring one human, and the next thing you know, we are overrun with them. Throw him in a cell.
Janai: But this human is the King of Katolis!
Khessa: Oh? Then put him in the extra-nice ring of fire.

Callum: So, uh, when we get up there, are we gonna tell the Dragon Queen we’re a thing?
Rayla: Uh, I don’t think it’s gonna come up.
Callum: Oh, I see. You’re saying we should hide it from her. Kind of a secret, forbidden-romance situation?
Rayla: Yes. Yes, that’s right! The Dragon Queen must never know!
Callum: I understand. The world just isn’t ready for what we have!
Khessa: Your people? Do you bring farmers and poets, or do you bring an army?
Kazi: You know, I think this interrogation is going very well. You’re not dead!
Ezran: Hey, that isn’t part of the spell.
Callum: Uh, yeah! So, uh, you were gone for a while, and now, uh, this is a thing, so…
Ezran: What? WHAAAAAAA
Soren: Claudia, you’re changing too. But it’s not too late! Come with me, Claudia. You can leave him!
Soren: Please, Soren, don’t. Don’t do this to me. Don’t make me choose, not again!
Episode 8, ‘Dragonguard’
Soren: All right, mountain — prepare to be dominated! Come on, Soren! What were all those workouts for? You can do this! Oh… Maybe I shouldn’t have… done this… in… armor…
Soren: Is this the afterlife?
Callum: No, it’s still just… the life, still. You’re alive. What are you doing here?
Soren: Hold on. Give me… Give me a second to catch my breath. Okay: We’re all doomed.
Callum: Really? So, that’s it? Just, “Goodbye”? You’re going to stay here and die out of pride?
Rayla: It’s not pride, Callum! It’s more than that. It goes deeper.
Callum: Oh? Do you have a nicer word for it? Honor? Redemption? It’s just pride!
Soren: So, the truth is, someone who wants you to do horrible things, and convinces you that they’re good, that’s a villain. My dad is a villain. And he’s only gonna get more powerful, and the more powerful he gets, the more people will listen to him, and believe him, and follow him. So, maybe we could run, and we’d be safe for a while, but he’s not gonna give up. It may seem hopeless, but our only chance is to fight him here. While we’re all together. The only way to stop this is to look evil in the face and say, “No more.”
Episode 9, ‘The Final Battle’
Callum: Manus, Pluma, Volantus! My arm is itching a little. Maybe it’s starting to work?
Rayla: Did you pull a muscle in the middle of a jumping jack?
Callum: Oh, uh, no. I was just greeting the sunrise. Hello, sun, how’s it going? You know, it’s a big day. Could be our last.
Rayla: Yeah. To be fair, that’s true every day.
Soren: You know all those times I called you the step prince, or made fun of you, or knocked you down and stuff? You remember that?
Callum: I do. I do remember that.
Soren: Well, I’m sorry. It was wrong and I’m sorry for it. I think it was because even though the king was your stepdad, it was, it was so clear how much he loved you, and that made me feel jealous and upset. So, I picked on you, because I didn’t know any better. Also because you’re smaller and weaker.
Callum: Oh. Thanks. I guess.
Soren: And slower! I forgot slower!
Claudia: Aww Dad, look, they have shields! Maybe we should just give up and turn around?
Callum: I got more wind where that came from!
Callum: This morning, I thought we were doomed. Then the dragons came, and I thought we would win! But then things got doomed again. But now we’re okay!
Ezran: It does feel great to not be doomed.
Soren: It feels a lot better to be on the side that’s un-chaining things.
Soren: Drop the staff, Father. It’s over. I am a Crown Guard, and he is the true king. I will do whatever is necessary to protect his life, because now I know what the right thing to do is.
Zubeia: Elves and humans are here and they’ve brought back my baby, my love — and my hope.
