Quotes

Theon: Does Father know that you've married his shipwright?
Asha: No more than Sigrin does. Esgred was the first ship he built. He named her after his mother. I would be hard-pressed to say which he loves best.[1]

Theon: My name is Theon. You have to know your name. You... you told me you were Esgred, but that was a lie. Your name is Asha.
Asha: It is.[2]
