After talking to Manirai:
"No matter what Manirai says, I'm not interested. You're just going to get me killed."
- get me killed "They only made me a gulakhan because my father was a gulakhan. And I hated my father. He was a stupid brute, and a bully. But Ulath-Pal and the other gulakhans would kill me in a minute if they thought I wanted to be ashkhan."
- Nerevarine prophecies "But why tell me? I am not ashkhan. I can do nothing. And Ulath-Pal and his supporters would slash my face and kick me to death if I did not do as they say."

- want to be ashkhan (carrying the War Axe of Airan Ammu) "Yes. I recognize it. It is the war axe of my father, the War Axe of Airan-Ammu. Ulath-Pal had it from my father, and carried it as ashkhan. But what has that to do with my wanting to be ashkhan?"

Now, with Ulath-Pal dead, I hold the fate of the tribe in my hands, and I must accept that responsibility. Thank you for your lesson. I shall be Ashkhan of the Erabinimsun. And I shall name you Nerevarine."
