->There is a Dwarf saying: "He fights hardest whose back is against the Karak gates." That’s why Dwarfs fight harder than any manling — we’ve tasted so much of death and loss, [[DyingRace we know exactly the price of defeat]]. No disrespect to you Humans and Halflings, but [[WeAreAsMayflies you have short lives and short memories]], and know nothing of the true fear of extinction. [[RatMen The Skaven]] have no fear at all, and only fight because another, bigger Skaven will whip them if they do not. I’ve seen many a Human like that, too, come to think of it.

->Snarling and lashing its tail in arrogant confidence, the leopard advanced in search of the tender food that it craved. Had it met its prey in the open, it would have had no problems, but now that the man-apes were trapped, desperation had given them the courage to attempt the impossible. And for the first time, [[TookALevelInBadass they had the means to achieve it]].
