Mara Sov: {{Quote|We both want the best for the future, but we've pretended to be people we're not for so long that we've forgotten what else we are. Not just a queen, not just a Kell. A sister... a mother. Eramis? Are you there?}}

Rasputin: {{Quote|I do not make that claim. Forgive me. I am finding myself again. During the Dark Age, Felwinter would say, "Hope persists…"}}

===Elsie's talk with Osiris===
Elsie Bray: {{Quote|Think of each Vex Hobgoblin like a starship. The crew works together to pilot it, but it doesn't mean the crew all share one mind.}}
Osiris: {{Quote|Or the same ideals. This aligns with observations I've made in the Infinite Forest, where "aberrant" Vex were quarantined and destroyed. Aberrant in that they moved against a consensus. Aberrant in ideology. The Vex may seem unified, but they're divided into a number of factions.}}
Elsie Bray: {{Quote|Just like us.}}
Osiris: {{Quote|Tell me, as someone who has traveled time in a circle... are our divisions so clear in every cycle of history?}}
Elsie Bray: {{Quote|No. Nothing is ever clear, no matter how many times history repeats itself. Choice is always the knife we fall on. Our own choices, each and every time, seem to be what dooms us.}}
Osiris: {{Quote|Always?}}
Elsie Bray: {{Quote|Not always... but too often. We fracture, we fail, and the wheel turns again.}}
Osiris: {{Quote|We, constrained to linear time, do not have the ability to learn from our future mistakes. You, however... Not to put the burden of all this on you, but... it feels as though the Traveler has a plan for you. We just can't see it yet.}}
Elsie Bray: {{Quote|It could make the plan a little clearer.}}
Osiris: {{Quote|Do you feel you've learned enough — collectively — over your journey to prevent our end? Or will we be having this conversation again someday?}}
Else Bray: {{Quote|I don't know. We've never had this conversation before, so... I suppose there's a first time for everything.}}
