Mallyx: At last, now I shall feast on their anguish!
Mallyx: Unleash me.

Idle conversations[edit]

Mallyx: Demons of Torment will hound you to death and beyond.
<Character name>: Enough of your threats. I'm not impressed.
Mallyx: I shall consume you from within.
<Character name>: Only if I'm already dead.
Mallyx: You can't hold me forever.
<Character name>: But I can hold you as long as I need to.
Mallyx: The veil between Tyria and the Mists thins... It feels natural and yet worrying.
Mallyx: For you. Not I.
