Ethan: You're going to be like this through the whole event, aren't you?
Hero: …
Ethan: Fine. I can work with this.

Ethan: I had to make sure you had the skull density of a hero! It was just a little pat on the noggin'.

Ethan: Oh… your pupils don't always do that?
Hero: No. So… It's Ethan, right?

Hero: I know I've already asked this already but what's Wint…
Ethan: You might be asking to yourself, "What's Winter-een-mas?" if you live in a closet or something.
Hero: …OK, sure. let's say I live in a closet.
Ethan: Winter-een-mas is the MOST WONDERFUL TIME OF THE YEAR!
Hero: Better than Frostval?!
Ethan: YES BY DEFAULT Cause I've never heard of that other thing.
Ethan: Winter-een-mas is a holiday where your friends, family and loved ones crowd around their warmth of their TVs and computer monitors and celebrate video games and our fellow gamers.
Ethan: It brings the gaming world together as one as we spend the last week of January basking in the glow of our favorite games and giving thanks to the Gods of Gaming for their great gifts!
Hero: Wow. Sounds like my kind of party.
Ethan: Yep. I invented the holiday and it's my job to spread the word and bring good tidings of great games to the people.
Hero: And you're the king?
Ethan: Yep again, and a horrible fate has befallen your king. My Winter-een-mas CROWN has gone missing. Without it, my head gets cold.
