"I have no power to save anyone." "what is with you?" "They will kill them." "we will never see them again." "We shall lose people dear to us." "Therru." "To value something - is that what it means?" "It is necessary to value life first of all." "But people sooner or later die." "Why value such a life? that all of us sooner or later will die?" "and so we value life." "but not of life?" "To wish to die and wish to live eternally this same." "You are afraid to live the life which is given to you." "Therru." "You live not only for the sake of yourself." "Then to present a life to another." "Le-bannen." "So our life is arranged." "how do you know my True Name?" "You have told it to me." "I too shall tell you my True Name." "My true name is Tehanu." "Tehanu: flame/ burning/ star" "Tehanu." "Tehanu." "Soon it will be dawn." "Therru." "We must help them." "Yes." "Arren." "What?" "Look." "Hajtaka." "Thera- san." "Here." "Jump." "I cannot." "Be not afraid." "Give." "We must run." "Hajtaka." "Time to say goodbye Hajtaka." "Go; you have time for a few last tender moments." "I shall put things in order in this world." "Hajtaka?" "be strong!" "We aren't finished yet." "Soon the sun will rise." "What do you mean?" "Listen." "Do you not hear our hope approaching." "Finish with your chatter." "then the woman." "Stop." "he is very strong." "Stand back." "Attack!" "Run away!" "Run away!" "What a waste." "I though we had an understanding." "Be still!" "You will no longer use me like a fool." "Le-bannen." "She uses the Magic of Death." "Arren!" "Keep back." "Die." "give me power for the sake of a life." "it is forged by magic." "She turns to an old woman." "She hid her age by means of magic." "Madam Kumo..." "Do not dare to challenge me." "I never shall accept death." "How can a wizard fear death?" "little girl!" "I am not a useless mortal like you are." "I have absorbed the knowledge of the ancestors and have become an invincible force." "And weak wizards have underestimated my strength." "Have expelled me to the ends of the Earth." "I shall have my revenge on them." "and the greatest magician in all lands." "Therru!" "Therru." "I must stop that boy." "Really" "Release me." "Do you feel bad?" "Kumo!" "Release Therru."
