Dialogue

The Collector: SUMMONER! Maestro has discovered our plan, but hold fast! It matters not!
The Collector: We must strike against the Maestro now! The evil champion I freed, the dark soul I have been keeping in secret, he is the key --
Maestro: COLLECTOR! SUMMONER!
Maestro: Who is this dark soul?! Tell me now and I won't rip off all your limbs!
- Transmission #1 - Upon starting the Quest

---

Maestro: I'm losing my patience, Collector! Tell me who it is, right now!
The Collector: You do not see all, Maestro! Even here in Battleworld we have a secret from you -- a mystery ally!
Maestro: GRAAAAAH! WHO IS IT? I DEMAND TO KNOW.
- Transmission #2

---

Maestro: SUMMONER!
Maestro: It was stupid to get involved with the Collector's scheme against me. But I am willing to forgive all if you tell me --
The Collector: HAH! A cunning move, Maestro -- divide and conquer. A gambit I have already countered.
The Collector: I have kept the identity of this dark soul hidden from the Summoner... no amount of pressure could reveal that which is unknown!
- Transmission #3

---

Maestro: YOU WILL NOT KEEP SECRETS FROM ME!
Maestro: I WILL BEAT THEM OUT OF YOU!
The Collector: Can it be? Are you...afraid, Maestro? You should be. You faced this evil champion once before, but he is much mightier than when you last battled!
- Transmission #4

---

Magik: You may be the summoner of champions, but I'm the Queen of Demons!
Magik: I'm gonna carve out your soul and feed it to all my pet monsters!
