Line 94:
* [[To Be Lawful or Good]]: The party is confronted with a dilemma: kill Marketh, a cruel thief who works for the [[Big Bad]] and abuses his lover Ginafae among other things. Several of his victims will want you to deliver justice to him. However, doing so will doom Ginafae as she's been cursed with a geas. Only by sparing Marketh will the party be given the option of freeing her.
* [[Woman Scorned]]: Icasaracht. [[Your Mileage May Vary|Depends on how the conversation is seen]]. From one point it seems like she had Aihonen's ancestor as a lover then later died because of him, thus invoking this trope. The other, and most likely case, is that she was just doing what dragons do and then came along the Hero Aihonen's Ancestor who then killed her, depriving her of everything she ever cherished.
{{quote|Seer - A woman knows a woman's heart, and a strange, beautiful, and cruel thing it is. But the cruelest of all is a [[Title Drop|heart of winter]], for it beats not with love, but with loss, and *nothing* may comfort it.<br />
Seer - When a human heart breaks, it may heal and forgive. When a heart of winter breaks, it is like ice... it shatters and can never be made whole again.<br />
CHARNAME - Why does this... creature that's possessed Wylfdene... why does she want to destroy the Ten-Towns?<br />
Seer - Her heart was broken once by a man of the Ten-Towns. A *mighty* breaking it was, for in it she lost her kingdom, her love, and her life. Now, her heart beats with the vengeance of winter.<br />
CHARNAME - Surely she can be reasoned with. There is no need for war...<br />
Seer - A woman's fury is a terrible thing. }}
