• Sebastián: This Nyxian wine is delightful, is it not? *hic* Gets the heart pumping and the talk flowing!
• Taneel: This is Nyxian wine? I thought the Nyx didn't drink.
• Sebastián: Oh, they don't. No no no. But when I described wine for them, they took great joy in inventing their own. Discovery drives them like nothing else.
• Sebastián: But but but! To darker matters. Yes, yes. Quickly-quickly.
• Sebastián: Fernando, it's you I wanted to see.
• Sebastián: *hic* Because you're in danger, cousin. And that's not the wine talking.
• Sebastián: Your... your father protected me, you see. At a time in my life when I... couldn't protect myself.
• Sebastián: In Drive Corps, the cousins can be such... brutes. So cruel, as they claw for the best postings.
• Sebastián: But not your dear father, Fernando. He was kind. And every time I excelled at exams... he protected me from their fists Adn there were so many fists.
  And since he is not here to help you... it's up to me to pay it forward. With information. Yes-yes-yes.
• Sebastián: THE HEAD OF INDÚSTRIAGLOBO IS DEAD FERNANDO: AS IS MARIA CRUZ; THE CHAIRWOMAN OF BANCO IMPERIAL.
