Drop one of these in when you can’t think of something pithy to say.
1. “But at what cost?”
2. “In this economy?”
3. “So, it has come to this.”
4. “So let it be written, so let it be done.”
5. “And then the wolves came.”
6. “Whatever.”
7. “Is this why fate brought us together?”
8. “Be that as it may, still may it be as it may be.”
9. “There’s no escape from Destiny.”
10. “As the prophecy foretold.”
11. “And thus I die.”
12. “Wise words by wise men bring wise deeds and wise pen.”
13. “Just like in my dream.”
14. “And so it begins.”
If you feel the need, you can use (D10+½d10-1) or other random generation methods.
