Juan Echanove: Melchor
Quotes
-
Melchor : Do you see it now, Gaspar? Sometimes, other people are right, too.

Sara : You can't go see Herod. When he finds you what you're up to, he'll slit your throats. It's suicide! It's said that he's controlled by an evil being.
Gaspar : And now there's an evil being! This is just too much.
Melchor : Sarah, my dear, it's impossible for a king to be evil. Just look at the city he's built. Kings are good people. It's in their nature.
Sara : Listen to me! I'm begging you.
Baltasar : Sarah, it was the star that brought us here. You'll stay outside the palace gate. Let's go.
Sara : Not even scorpions cross his path.

Gaspar : [upon meeting Melchior and Balthasar] And who are you?
Baltasar : My name is Balthasar. I come from the lands of Nubia, and I have been searching for the same thing as you.
Gaspar : You are?
Baltasar : The three of us have been following the same star. I've been expecting you two for days.
Melchor : Oh! Well, I'm Melchior.
Baltasar : [shaking Melchior's hand] Melchior means king of the light, doesn't it?
Melchor : Oh, yes. Right quite... I mean, quite right you are.
Gaspar : King of the Light. Ha! Now I've heard everything. My name is Gaspar.
Melchor : A pleasure, Gaspar.
Gaspar : Charmed. It means son of all the constellations.
