Nizam
- Prince Dastan: You've eased Father's anger, Uncle.
- Nizam: One day, you'll have the pleasure of being brother to the king, Dastan. As long as you remember your most important duty, you should do well.
- Prince Dastan: Oh, and what's that?
- Nizam: Making sure his wine glass stays full.
- King Sharaman: [to those inside the palace after suggesting Dastan should marry Tamina] He plunges into a hundred foes without thought, but before marriage he stands frozen with fear! And there are those who say he is not yet wise!
- [the Persians laugh]
- Prince Dastan: [quietly to Bis] I need a drink.
- [the robe Sharaman is wearing begins to smoke and burn him; soldiers rush to pull it off only for their hands to be burned]
- Garsiv: [runs in to help] Out of my way!
- [soldiers pull him back after his hands burn]
- Prince Dastan: [kneels next to the king] Father.
- Nizam: Oh God, help us! The robe, it's poisoned!
- Prince Dastan: Somebody help him.
- Garsiv: The robe Dastan gave him!
- King Sharaman: [to Dastan] Why?
- Prince Dastan: *Somebody help him*!
- Garsiv: Seize the murderer!
- Prince Dastan: *Somebody help him*!
- Prince Dastan: Nizam! Don't use the dagger to undo your past! It will unleash...
- Nizam: ...unleash what? God's wrath? Hell itself?
- [he kicks Dastan in the face]
- Hassansin Leader: In a trance we can find anything, including your nephew, Prince Dastan.
- Nizam: Then I hope you shall see more death. Soon.
- Prince Dastan: Our orders were to subdue Koshkahn, not to attack Alamut.
- Tus: Wise words, little brother.
- Nizam: Words won't stop our enemies, once they're armed with Alamutian blades.
