Season 1, Episode 1 "Bastards, Birthrights, and Beginnings"

Season 1, Episode 2 "The Princess and the Pub"

  • Bertrand's... fascination with Leoril, and Leoril being completely okay with it as long as he continues to be provided with the lifestyle he's used to.
    Barry: Yeah. Leo is kind of the embodiment of that Brendon Urie quote, “I’ll be a pretty boy for money.”
  • Warren Dawnchaser sitting on the council at the tender age of ten. He apparently took the throne at age three.

  • The entire scene where Phirora and Fenandrys meet up with Kalessa in her chambers.
    Kalessa: Are they the enemy? We trade with them. Their booze is great, did you get Voldhuran booze for the party is what I’m asking? Why are we whispering? Your dad’s not omnipresent, Phi. He’s not a god, he just works for one.

  • Leoril's utter panic at the idea that Eleanora and Zed might be talking about him without him there.
  • Back at the bandit hideout, Josh the bandit is surrounded by very accepting people. His boss' name is Hunter.
    Leoril: Josh and Hunter? What’s the name of your gang? Sigma Chi Epsilon?
  • Zed's lack of concern at someone dropping down from the trees and stabbing him in the back.
