Cult Of The Lamb – Video Game Quotes

You have supplanted me. A vessel no more, instead a crown bearing deity. Damned Lamb! I am at your mercy, are you to be a vengeful false idol, or a merciful coward? No longer can you blame your vile acts on me.

He waits by the rocks of the darkened sea, at the foot of the long, sudden drop. Within the maw of pointed-teeth beasts, the stutter of the heart, then stopped... He was the fifth. The fifth Bishop of the Old Faith. Our brother, The One Who Waits. Back then he was known by the name Narinder. But as millennia wore on, he grew discontent with his role. He began to question. He was gluttonous in his ambition. And in my imprudence I loved him. For it, I lost my mind. For it, he lost his freedom. Can you fathom such betrayal, Lamb? Of your own turned against you? Would you like to find out? He was the fifth. The fifth Bishop of the Old Faith. Our brother, The One Who Waits. Back then he was known by the name Narinder.

Shamura was weak, not wise. Their vision was too small to contain the multitudes of one such as I. The time has come to free me. You shall have the honour of returning the Red Crown to its true bearer. I admit, you have worn it almost as well as I could have myself. Your appetite for death is something I can admire, Vessel. But the Crown is mine, and none — NONE — are worthy. None other than I. You shall lay down your life and return to me what is mine. After millennia, all may bask in my glory once more. But it cannot be done here. The final gate awaits. Hurry now, the time is at hand.

Praise the Lamb, conduit to great power, promised liberator of the One that Waits below.

I am glad I found you. I bring good news! The One Who Waits is pleased with your progress and wishes to grant you a Crown Ability. Enemies you slay will now drop Fervour. Collect this to replenish your Curses.

Vessel, I relinquish you from your service to the Red Crown. Return it to me, and embrace the end that awaits. With this last sacrifice of my most devoted Follower, I will be freed. Finally... I will be FREE! Approach, vessel, and lay your life down at my feet.

— Before us stands the last of its kind. All others we have hunted down and put to the blade.

— With this final sacrifice the prophecy will be impossible to fulfill.

— The heretic who lies bound below will be condemned to eternal captivity.

— ...and the old faith shall be preserved.

So you foolishly persist, little Lamb. I hear your lies and I smell your fear. The Red Crown rises again... but what an UNWORTHY bearer it has.

So you have betrayed me, Lamb. You have shunned my gospel, and claimed yourself a false idol. The crown is mine by divine right! You think to stand in the very face of death?

Fear not! I am Ratau. I was once a chosen vessel like you, but those days are lost to the winds. I was sent to guide you. We are deep in the lands of the Old Faith and in grave danger. My instructions are to lead you to safety. Continue through the woods. Escape lies ahead. I will be close by.

Preaching sermons, performing rituals and providing for the needs of your Followers will keep their Faith high. The Bones of your enemies are required to perform such Rituals. Destroy their skeletons to gather their bones. Returns to the lands of the Old Faith, gather bones from fallen enemies, recruit more Followers and return to perform a Ritual here in the Temple.

Even after I have slaughtered you, your pain will not end. You cannot escape me, even in death.

We have nearly reached safety, but look ahead! another poor soul about to be sacrificed. Rescue them and they would have no choice but to join your new cult.

Indotrinating followers is well and good, but there is so much more you can take from them. Give them gifts, complete quests and performing blessings for them and you will increase their Loyalty to you. Once they are totally loyal to you, they will give you everything they own. Watch as I show you. You, Follower, come back in here! The more loyal Followers you have, the stronger you'll become. I have much to teach you, but I am old and grow weary. Visit me at my home and I will show you how to harness the true POWER of the Red Crown!

Did you believe me defeated? Did you think that to be all there was to a being such as I? You thought yourself above a GOD?
