Shan
- Geen: [about the Caravan Road] The Shah of Khwarezm imposed a truce. All have sworn to it. All observe it. No warrior is permitted to carry arms here.
- Temujin, later Genghis Khan: Good, then we can take our pick without fighting!
- Shan: You do not understand, Temujin. A truce was signed!
- Temujin, later Genghis Khan: I did not sign it, the slaves did not sign it.
- Geen: But...!
- Temujin, later Genghis Khan: [Interrupts] Will there be women among the slaves?
- Geen: Yes, lord...
- Temujin, later Genghis Khan: Good. My men have horses and weapons, but no women. How long do you think they will stay without women?
- [At Shan]
- Temujin, later Genghis Khan: How long will you?
- [Shan smirks]
- Temujin, later Genghis Khan: No woman will be taken against her will.
- Shan: But Lord, that's what women are for! And besides, the best have already been taken!
- Temujin, later Genghis Khan: A wise man does not judge a horse by its saddle markings!
- Temujin, later Genghis Khan: You are all free, my sisters, to continue with this caravan, or to ride with my men back to our camp.
- Shan: You give them a choice? Women?
- Temujin, later Genghis Khan: Sengal, strike the fetters off these slaves.
- Temujin, later Genghis Khan: Bring food and clothes to the Princess. Prepare another tent for me while I wash.
- Shan: Wash?
- Shan: If we keep heading east, we could end up in a land where I've heard they eat dogs. Or it might have been people.
- Temujin, later Genghis Khan: According to Geen, it is a land of great wealth. A vast empire built on knowledge and - we must have knowledge.
