"And my vanquisher will read that book, seeking the weapon, and they will come to understand me, where I have been and where I was going."The following is a verbatim transcription of an official document for archival reasons. As the original content is transcribed word-for-word, any possible discrepancies and/or errors are included.

Introduction

• Riven: Welcome, O wardens mine.

Or

• Riven: How long it has been...

Or

• Riven: What have you come to claim, dear Guardians?

Or

• Riven: My lair crawls with vermin. Present company excluded, of course.

The Crossing

• Riven: We made exquisite partners, you and I. Even if our partnership had its violent disagreements. You had so many dreams, and I knew how to weave them into the weapons you craved. Let's rekindle that little arrangement, shall we? I'm already here, after all. Slay my enemies. Protect my children. Give me peace, and I will forge a small measure of your brutality and greed into tools of death. I ask for nothing in return... but your dedication to our cause, and the pleasure of each broken enemy. Go, now. Your prey await.

Or

• Osiris: This is an interesting facsimile of the wider city. Not unlike a simulation — equally impervious to the demands of physical space.

• Riven: You would see it that way.

• Osiris: Is it the work of a nostalgic heart, or that of a favored listless pet, tunneling into the walls?

• Riven: Simply, indulging the creative spark, O mortal mine.

Or

• Osiris: Once again into the Confluence. Our enemies await you. Bring them fire.

• The Crow: We'll keep your exit into the overworld clear for when you're ready.

• Osiris: I wonder, if Mara did not cast Riven's eggs into... wherever this is, and Riven did not either... who did?

• The Crow: Maybe it was how Savathûn exploited Riven originally. Although... I don't remember her needing much motivation.

• Osiris: Doubtful. Riven would be aware of such an arrangement.

• The Crow: Yeah, and she'd NEVER lie to us about that.

Or

• Petra Venj: How is it that every time we work with the Vanguard, you find a way to get involved, Crow?

• The Crow: You could say I'm a little invested.

• Mara Sov: Any assistance the Vanguard is willing to provide is a boon to us, Petra.

• The Crow: It's all right, Mara. She's still warming up to me.

• Petra Venj: You're a bit dim, so it's taking a while.

• The Crow: [chuckles] Relax, Venj. You already shot me once.

Or

• The Crow: How does it work, anyway? Raising a ghost — I mean — a spirit?

• Mara Sov: Ahamkara are an anomaly unto themselves. A warp in the fabric of reality. In death their stamp lingers upon the world. It is a matter of drawing the essence of what remains into a... coalescence of her original form. Powerful, but still diminished.

• Riven: And perfectly harmless.
