Kenna: It's not fair! Where's our new chateau? You're the King's Deputy! I love Lola like a sister but the idea that an unnamed baby has been granted vast holdings. Since when is there any land
available?
Bash: There isn't. Not within two days ride of the job you begged me to take at the castle.
Kenna: How could I. Do you know what a title like would have meant to me? Baron Sebastian
instead of Bastard Sebastian?
Kenna: In other words, we cannot begrudge Lola and her child any of the gifts they may receive if it makes like easier for them than it was for you and your mother.
Bash: In those words exactly.

Mary: Are all powerful men so insecure?
Francis: A few. Many. Most.

Mary: What good does it do to pretend to be strong it it bankrupts us?
Catherine: Truly, Francis, I don't know why she's even in this conversation. Didn't you promise the
nobles you'd muzzle her?

Francis: Why are you kneeling?
Bash: Because you are King and I am nothing, until you make me something.

Innocent men shouldn't die alone. You won't die alone.

Conde

Narcisse: It's must be hard. Once a Queen, now the Queen Mother. Decorative, like an expensive
vase, yet a great deal more relevant.
Catherine: I'm not the only one. There's a new day coming, and you are on the wrong side.

You think you're untouchable, that your sins will stay buried, but they don't.

Nostradamus

Page: Lady Kenna requests a visit, your majesty.
King Henry: No.
Page: She requests that I inform you that she's naked under her robe.
King Henry: Send her in.

Marie de Guise: Marry Francis--not some bastard who might be king some day.
Mary: His name is Sebastian.

Mary, this is not about my vanity, this is about my legitimacy! I am a new King trying to fill
the shoes of a man those people feared. I don't need their fear, but I need their respect. How can I
ask them for it if I can't even get it from you?

Francis

I know I told you to go to Lola, but then the Plague came and you knowingly abandoned me to a nightmare. You are the King who deserted his castle and I am the Queen who was left behind, alone. Alone because of your mistakes. Of all the people you could have slept with, did it have to be one of my ladies? One of my closest friends?

Mary

Mary: I am your Queen. I command you.
Lord Narcisse: You will command nothing! I don't fear you. I don't fear your husband! Because without me, without the other nobles your power disappears. We are the outside world and we surround you.
