'Perhaps you have spent too long in the swamp with the rest of your kin. Time in civilization will straighten you out.' 'The rest of my--? I'm still a son of the Empire, father. I'm still your son.' 'A lizard who lays with men is no son of mine.' '... "The honour of House Avexus is writ in glorious battle". If I walk through the crucible of war and still outlive you- a feeble old man long past his prime- then I will be more of a son than you could have ever dreamed of.'

'Dear Gramis is just jealous because his meager rice paddy holdings yield scraps by comparison to the bounties of House Viteleus. Eastern Cyrodiil benefits from our grain alone.'

'We have and always will be sworn to the Empire before all else. To us, the Empire is eternal.'

'The Heraldry of House Avexus'

'I could hardly say no to him. He was so taken in awe and adoration, and it was a small expense to see him happier than I had seen in weeks.'

'They always seemed like such a happy family.'

'He does adore it so. I always find him asleep with it in his arms. It must be quite durable, because his hold on it is quite tight!'

'Yes, indeed. I remember once at the Zenithar Festival, they both took part in the Messenger's Marathon. They were leading the other children when Alesander tripped and fell a dozen paces short of the finish line. Lysander stopped and turned back to help Alesander back up while the rest of the children finished the race. When Alesander couldn't continue running, Lysander slung him over his shoulders like a backpack and crossed the finish line last, but they finished together. I was so proud of them both.'
