| "Elim. Promise me one thing." |
| "I'm listening." |
| "Don't die here. Escape. Live." |
| "Let me guess. So I can make the Dominion pay for what they've done to you." |
| "You wouldn't deny an old man his revenge, would you?" |
| "I'll do as you ask, on one condition…That you don't ask me this favor as a mentor, or a superior officer… but as a father asking his son." |
| "You're not my son." |
| "Father, you're dying. For once in your life, speak the truth." |
| "I should have killed your mother before you were born. You have always been a weakness I can't afford." |
| "So you've told me. Many times. Listen, Enabran. All I ask is that for this moment, let me be your son." |
| | pause |
| "Elim, remember that day…in the country. You must've been almost five." |
| "How can I forget it? It was the only day." |
| "I can still see you, on the back of that riding hound. You must've fallen off a dozen times. But you never gave up." |
| "I remember limping home…You held my hand." |
| "I was very proud of you, that day." |
