Shadows Quotes
[opening narration]
Victoria Winters: My name is Victoria Winters. It is late afternoon at Collinwood. And lengthening afternoon shadows are beginning to creep across the walls of the great house. For one man--a man who has been struck down by a mysterious illness--there is terror in the coming nightfall, danger in the lengthening shadows. And his heart is numbed by fear.

En'Kara: Can you help us exorcise these demons away?
Priest: No... I don't do that any more.
Aliester: Why not?
Priest: Because I... Or any priest for that matter, wasn't actually casting them back into the abyss. We only coerced them to go elsewhere, take possession of something else.
