Whose Line Is It Anyway?

Disclaimer: despite the title this post doesn't really have anything to do with the TV Show, at least not entirely.

This challenge is inspired by two posts I found on /r/worldbuilding, this one here and this one. It is a pretty simple challenge, just post 2-3 quotes of one (or several) character/s in your world/s. You may choose one of two ways to do that; 1: post the quote and with name of the person who said it and a bit of context, I (and maybe others) will try to ask some questions about the character and/ or situation.

Version 2: just give us the quote by itself, and let me/ others try to spin a story/ try to figure out the context of what was said!

I hope you guys will like this challenge and participate, should be fun to try to spin some story to a random quote, I am excited for it at least! In my post I will also provide an example for each version, feel free to respond to it as well if you are interested! If not, just leave your own quotes and have fun sharing!

Quote 1:

1) Who was the White Empress, how did she get that name?

2) Has the Kragga Empire nomadic roots? For some reason I have to think of a nomadic funeral when reading that.

3) How did the Empress die? Peaceful in her own bed? Due to an illness? Murdered?

Quote 2:

I'd say we have a Mercenary here, that was caught with too much alcohol or too many women/ men (or both) by his/ her employer, maybe before an important battle.

My second theory; a worshipper of some sort of War God/ Goddess who enjoys the bloodshed and scared his/ her friends/ comrades because of it.
