[21:28] * Molly heads up to their room, the wheezing and rattling becoming more pronounced
[21:29] * @Morgan follows her, obviously concerned
[21:31] * Molly immediately removes the gold overskirt and brown underskirt of the Eisen dress he bought in Freiburg on his way home
[21:32] (Molly) What...made you...decide upon this dress...liebes herz?
[21:32] * @Morgan shrugs
[21:32] (@Morgan) its Eisen... I thought you might like it
[21:32] * Molly smiles
[21:33] (Molly) I do... Had you decided ...I was to be your... mistress by then?
[21:34] * @Morgan rolls his head back for a moment
[21:35] (@Morgan) I dont think I'd fully accepted the idea even then
[21:35] * Molly starts removing the bodice, loosening it enough to pull over her head, leaving a plain shift beneath
[21:36] (Molly) Intriguing. You must have...been quite close...by the time you did
[21:37] * @Morgan nods
[21:37] (@Morgan) it wasn't long
[21:40] * Molly hangs the wet clothes by the fireplace 
[21:40] (Molly) But there was nothing specific I did that made you feel so?
[21:41] (@Morgan) feel what, that you'd like it?
[21:41] * Molly shakes her head as she sits in a chair
[21:42] (Molly) That I ought to.... be your mistress... rather than companion
[21:42] * @Morgan sighs
[21:43] (@Morgan) I think I just needed to admit it to myself that's what I actually wanted... that I was doing no-one any favours the way I was
[21:44] * Molly nods thoughtfully. She slips her hand down inside the neckline of her shift
[21:45] (Molly) The only favour I sought was your happiness
[21:46] * @Morgan nods
[21:46] (@Morgan) I think maybe that's why I was able to accept it
[21:47] * Molly smiles, closing her eyes and breathing slowly. After a few seconds, she coughs very hard, and it's a while before she inhales
[21:48] * @Morgan watches her, worried
[21:49] * Molly 's coughing continues
[21:49] * @Morgan puts his hand on her shoulder
[21:51] * Molly seems to calm a little, and within seconds, the coughing stops. He feels no different
[21:52] (Molly) Thank you
[21:52] (@Morgan) for?
[21:53] * Molly grins. The rattle and wheeze is gone. She breathes in and out deeply to test it. She sounds perfectly healthy
[21:53] (Molly) Everything, as always
[21:55] * @Morgan nods
[21:55] (@Morgan) you're welcome, as always
[21:56] * Molly sighs deeply, removing her hand
[21:57] (Molly) I hadn't realised quite how much it was affecting my breathing
[21:57] * @Morgan nods
[21:58] (Molly) It's almost as if I've worn a corset every moment for two years
[21:59] (@Morgan) I can't imagine that was pleasant or easy
[21:59] (Molly) I hadn't noticed it really
[22:00] (@Morgan) I suppose if it's something you're used to...
[22:00] * Molly goes to light the fire, still breathing deeply
[22:01] (@Morgan) would you like me to do that?
[22:03] (Molly) Only if you wish to, liebes herz. 
[22:04] * @Morgan nods slowly, concentrating on the fireplace
[22:05] (Molly) **it immediately lights and adjusts to the exact level he wishes. She watches him with a smile
[22:08] (Molly) That never ceases to amaze me
[22:08] (@Morgan) it still rather surprises me
[22:10] * Molly makes them tea and removes her boots and stockings in silence. Once she is sat on the bed with her cup cradled close and an expression of solemn curiosity on her face, she speaks
[22:10] (Molly) How did you find church?
[22:10] * @Morgan shrugs
[22:10] (@Morgan) followed the crowds
[22:10] * Molly giggles
[22:11] (Molly) Is that 'I would rather not discuss it?'
[22:11] * @Morgan smiles
[22:12] (@Morgan) its fine blossom, what do you wish to know?
[22:12] * Molly smiles softly, then sips her tea
[22:12] (Molly) Do you wish we had remained here?
[22:13] (@Morgan) it wouldn't have been seemly and, occasionally, good sense does prevail in my mind... if nothing else, the villagers needed to see us
[22:14] * Molly nods
[22:14] (Molly) It was an interesting sermon
[22:14] ** New query from Morgan (Available on submenu 'Windows')
[22:14] (@Morgan) aye, it was
[22:15] * Molly watches him closely
[22:15] (Molly) Did it trouble you?
[22:15] * @Morgan nods
[22:15] (@Morgan) to an extent
[22:16] * Molly nods
[22:16] (Molly) I thought that might happen when he announced the subject
[22:17] * @Morgan nods
[22:17] (@Morgan) I spent quite a while trying to decide if I should leave, ignore him or interrupt him
[22:18] (Molly) You opted for the middle then?
[22:20] (@Morgan) No, I actually listened to him
[22:21] * Molly nods
[22:21] (Molly) It's a little confusing
[22:22] (@Morgan) how so?
[22:23] (Molly) That there is a plan for each of us that our lives would follow if not for the choices of others
[22:24] * @Morgan nods
[22:26] * Molly frowns
[22:26] (Molly) But what if the thing that changes your life is not the choice of anyone?
[22:27] (@Morgan) such as?
[22:27] (Molly) **the rain drums against the window, daylight dimming to a pensive gray
[22:27] (Molly) Illness
[22:28] (Molly) No-one chose for my consumption, yet it irrevocably changed my life
[22:29] (@Morgan) maybe that was part of what was planned... or an unfortunate coincidence
[22:30] (Molly) But if the Lord loves each of us and wants our happiness so much that he redresses the balance when other's free will harms us, why would he plan for me to suffer so?
[22:32] (@Morgan) perhaps thats the only way you could be set on a particular course to a particular place.... perhaps, as I said, its coincidence
[22:33] * Molly nods a little, drinking from her cup
[22:34] (Molly) Is it the view of the objectionist church?
[22:35] * @Morgan shakes his head slightly
[22:35] (@Morgan) just me guessing... its not something that has a view held on it as far as I'm aware
[22:35] * Molly nods, and is quiet for a moment
[22:36] (Molly) The church of Avalon believes that Theus knows all things at all times
[22:37] (@Morgan) I dont see it
[22:38] * Molly nods, looking away
[22:38] (Molly) Almost a shame
[22:38] (@Morgan) why?
[22:39] * Molly sighs slightly, looking down at her cup. Her voice is soft.
[22:40] (Molly) If he had known how things would alter his plan for you, he may have been able to write us finding each other into his plan for _my_ life
[22:41] * @Morgan pulls a face
[22:42] (@Morgan) If he knew, it was part of a design, a plan... if it was 'free will', he wouldn't know, and could only make restitution
[22:42] * Molly looks up
[22:43] (Molly) You're probably right
[22:47] (@Morgan) Perhaps illnesses don't come under his remit... I doubt he plans out every cold, every fever that every person ever has
[22:47] * Molly nods
[22:48] (Molly) Perhaps it is simply that I can not shake the feeling that I _belong_ with you in a way I've never felt like I've belonged before
[22:48] * Molly blushes
[22:49] (@Morgan) I've been getting that... maybe thats something more recent, more... Syrneth perhaps
[22:49] * Molly smiles slightly
[22:50] (Molly) Maybe it's from all the magic we were exposed to in Tawstock
[22:50] (@Morgan) or the floating ball of stuff in the summer house
[22:51] (421) She :Unknown command
[22:51] * Molly nods, sipping her tea
[22:51] (Molly) Also possible.
[22:53] * @Morgan nods
[22:55] (Molly) I was interested in the bit about repenting only granting an opportunity for Theus to consider whether one should enter heaven. It is not so in the church of Avalon
[22:56] * @Morgan nods
[22:56] (@Morgan) say sorry and all is forgiven...
[22:56] * Molly again watches him
[22:56] (Molly) That would not be good
[22:58] (@Morgan) No, no really
[22:59] * Molly nods thoughtfully
[23:00] (Molly) They call you 'Veisgraf Sudlachenburg' here...
[23:00] * @Morgan nods
[23:00] (Molly) Do you like it?
[23:01] (@Morgan) I hadn't really thought about it
[23:04] * Molly smiles 
[23:05] (Molly) What _do_ you like to be called best?
[23:05] (@Morgan) that depends entirely on the situation
[23:06] (Molly) Such as?
[23:08] (@Morgan) well, if I'm threatening someone, my lord is fairly good... though now and then I particularly like hearing "oh my god, its _him_"
[23:11] * Molly raises a playful eyebrow
[23:11] (Molly) And from me?
[23:11] (@Morgan) liebling's rather nice
[23:12] * Molly nods, smiling
[23:12] (Molly) I like liebling. I love blossom though.
[23:12] * @Morgan nods
[23:13] (Molly) Though I am always confused that you use it in Avalonian even when we mostly converse in Eisen
[23:14] * @Morgan shrugs
[23:15] (Molly) My parents call me Moll, or little Moll
[23:15] * Molly smiles, rolling her eyes
[23:15] (Molly) The last hasn't been true for many many years
[23:17] (@Morgan) I think you'll always be little to them
[23:18] * Molly nods
[23:19] (Molly) My brothers used to call me Red, Fireball or if I'd annoyed them, flaming Moll! My mother always believed they were trying to curse without being caught though
[23:19] * @Morgan laughs
[23:19] (@Morgan) that wouldn't surprise me
[23:20] (Molly) Maybe you'll get to meet Peter upon our return?
[23:20] * @Morgan nods
[23:20] (@Morgan) maybe
[23:21] (Molly) He's more like father than mother though
[23:21] (@Morgan) that should be interesting then...
[23:21] * Molly nods
[23:22] (Molly) Possibly
[23:22] (@Morgan) I suspect he'll do the big brother act, and given he's more like your father, might even threaten me
[23:22] * Molly sighs
[23:23] (Molly) I'd be shocked if he doesn't
[23:24] * @Morgan nods
[23:24] (@Morgan) it happens
[23:24] (Molly) He was never much fun really
[23:25] (@Morgan) did I tell you James threatened me?
[23:25] * Molly nods
[23:26] * @Morgan smiles
[23:26] (Molly) Invoked the big brother rules, I think you said
[23:26] * @Morgan nods
[23:26] (Molly) Are you glad you have no such burden?
[23:27] * @Morgan glances at the fire
[23:27] (@Morgan) you think so? I'll be having to make sure he's behaving himself, like I'm someone _elses_ big brother
[23:28] (Molly) I hadn't thought of that. *she pauses* what will happen when he returns?
[23:29] (@Morgan) We'll be watched like hawks to make sure there's not a repeat of what I did... we'll be civil, particularly in front of mother...
[23:30] * Molly nods with a hint of a frown
[23:30] (Molly) And what am I to do?
[23:31] (@Morgan) be you... If he makes you in any way uncomfortable, it's probably best to speak with my father
[23:31] * Molly watches him
[23:31] (Molly) You think that likely?
[23:32] (@Morgan) I wouldn't have thought so, but I like to have every eventuality prepared for
[23:32] * Molly nods
[23:32] (Molly) How long will he stay?
[23:33] (@Morgan) Not entirely sure about that... I've got a few ideas rattling about, but ultimately it'll be down to my father's decision
[23:34] * Molly smiles, intrigued
[23:34] (Molly) Would you like to share your ideas?
[23:36] (@Morgan) I was considering having him relocate to Innesbruck, but I think that'll be better handled the way we're going already... There is, however, the subject of Maubourgs spinster daughter....
[23:38] (Molly) I don't envy them, they really need to marry her off, but she isn't young or pretty enough to be sought after, even with his title
[23:38] (@Morgan) I happen to know of a man who isn't married that needs a reason to settle down...
[23:39] (Molly) But would they want him?
[23:40] * @Morgan raises an eyebrow
[23:40] * Molly suddenly frowns deeply
[23:41] (Molly) He'd be a Graf
[23:41] * @Morgan nods slowly
[23:42] (@Morgan) he'd do as he's told
[23:42] (Molly) Why would he?
[23:43] (@Morgan) because I'd knock seven bells out of him if he didn't
[23:44] * Molly smiles but it doesn't reach her eyes
[23:44] (Molly) Aye
[23:45] (@Morgan) its a working plan... besides, it'd get that land under the control of a koertig.
[23:45] * Molly nods, looking a little sad
[23:45] (Molly) Yes, it would
[23:45] (@Morgan) what is it blossom?
[23:46] (Molly) You should have married her instead of me, you know? It'd have made most sense
[23:47] (@Morgan) Maubourg?
[23:47] (Molly) Yes
[23:47] * @Morgan snorts
[23:47] (@Morgan) No thanks
[23:47] * Molly smiles slightly
[23:48] (Molly) Is it not the Eisen way to do one's duty and tolerate a boring, unpretty but politically stellar wife?
[23:49] (@Morgan) must be the Avalonian side showing then...
[23:49] * Molly laughs. 
[23:50] (Molly) And who knows, you might have found some smitten Avalon commoner willing to be your kept mistress!
[23:51] (@Morgan) well, quite
[23:52] * Molly grins
[23:52] (Molly) Not me though.
[23:52] (@Morgan) no, that'd never do
[23:53] * Molly shakes her head
[23:55] (Molly) Even the thought of having to share your heart and body with another woman brings out some rather possessive and territorial thoughts! *she laughs*
[23:55] * @Morgan nods
[23:56] (@Morgan) Likewise
[23:56] (Molly) About you sharing yourself between us? *she looks confused*
[23:57] (@Morgan) No, the thought of having to share you...
[23:58] * Molly looks as if she's going to say something, then blushes. She sips her tea while she formulates an answer
[23:59] (Molly) That will never occur in my case, as I promised you many moons ago
[23:59] * @Morgan nods
[00:01] (Molly) I am not used to feeling such. I try hard not to be possessive, but I am not always successful
[00:02] * @Morgan shrugs
[00:02] (@Morgan) aside from official duties, you dont need to share me with anyone
[00:03] * Molly nods a little
[00:03] (Molly) Thank you that means a great deal to me
[00:05] * Molly looks lost in thought
[00:06] (Molly) Did you know that in the Empire of the  cresent moon a man is allowed to brand his harem as he does his cattle
[00:07] (@Morgan) really?
[00:07] * Molly nods
[00:08] (Molly) They see it as acceptable that she is marked by his hand for the world to know he has dominion over her
[00:08] (@Morgan) interesting
[00:09] * Molly watches him a moment
[00:09] (Molly) Is it?
[00:09] (@Morgan) its an interesting idea
[00:10] (Molly) Many would say it is savage and barbaric
[00:11] (@Morgan) culture and custom... I'm sure somewhere its perfectly normal for women to get raving drunk every night as men do...
[00:11] * Molly smirks
[00:11] (Molly) I believe it's a little place called Ussura
[00:12] (@Morgan) well, yes
[00:12] (Molly) I suppose though it is just a variation on wearing wedding rings
[00:13] * @Morgan nods
[00:13] (@Morgan) Aye... tattooing isn't that uncommon, I cant see it being much different in that respect
[00:13] * Molly looks thoughtful
[00:14] (Molly) Far less painful. I wonder why they don't do that instead
[00:14] (@Morgan) tattooing?
[00:15] (Molly) Instead of branding
[00:15] (@Morgan) takes a lot longer for a start
[00:15] * Molly nods slightly
[00:15] (Molly) Perhaps that is it
[00:16] * Molly sips her tea
[00:17] (@Morgan) possibly
[00:17] (Molly) Perhaps there is something in human nature that prefers to mark territory forcefully
[00:17] (@Morgan) that wouldn't surprise me in the least
[00:18] * Molly watches his expression
[00:18] * @Morgan looks thoughtful
[00:18] (Molly) Perhaps it hails back to a more primitive, instinct driven time
[00:23] * Molly absentmindedly goes to drink her tea, surprised that it's empty. She blushes at her embarrassment before checking to see if he saw
[00:23] * @Morgan glances at her before looking back to the fire
[00:25] (Molly) Are my things dry? I really ought to be wearing clothes
[00:25] * @Morgan goes and feels them
[00:25] (@Morgan) I think so
[00:26] * Molly starts redressing
[00:27] (Molly) I was considering visiting our stabbing victim
[00:27] (@Morgan) oh?
[00:28] (Molly) I wondered if he should come to Innesbruck with us
[00:28] (@Morgan) You think so?
[00:30] (Molly) We need order there. He is a clever man and another pair of hands could be useful *she gets her bodice on and laced*
[00:31] * @Morgan nods
[00:31] (@Morgan) not a bad idea
[00:31] (Molly) He should be fit to travel in a few days
[21:06] (Molly) [20:46] * Molly finishes dressing, looking thoughtful.  She gives him a look full of mischief
[21:06] (Molly) [20:46] (Molly) You never told me, you know?
[21:07] (@Morgan) about?
[21:07] (Molly) The allowance given to a mistress
[21:08] (@Morgan) Did I not?
[21:11] (Molly) Nein, liebling. *she smirks* I believe I provided a... Distraction
[21:12] (@Morgan) you are rather distracting... I think perhaps I thought it common knowledge
[21:13] (@Morgan) though, realistically, I think mistress isn't quite the right term for what I was offering and wanting, was it?
[21:13] * Molly looks confused
[21:13] (Molly) No?
[21:14] (@Morgan) No... It was closer to marriage without using the big scary M word
[21:15] * Molly nods
[21:16] (Molly) I am unsure if there is a term for what it is you sought
[21:16] (@Morgan) I doubt it
[21:17] (Molly) I was under the impression that most mistresses were financially provided for during the duration of the affaire
[21:18] * @Morgan nods
[21:18] (@Morgan) and after, I think
[21:18] * Molly nods
[21:19] (Molly) Especially if he takes her purity. *she frowns slightly* she becomes less likely to find a husband afterwards
[21:20] * Molly pours more tea for them both
[21:24] (Molly) Of course, you would not have had to provide for or keep me had I not lost the Rose
[21:24] (@Morgan) had to, no, but I still would have
[21:25] * Molly looks intrigued
[21:25] (Molly) Why?
[21:25] (@Morgan) because it would've been the right thing to do
[21:29] * Molly looks thoughtful
[21:30] (Molly) And if I had propositioned you?
[21:30] * @Morgan shrugs
[21:30] * Molly smiles playfully
[21:31] (Molly) I could have left you with a supplement to your income every time I was docked
[21:32] * @Morgan snorts
[21:32] (@Morgan) what sort of man do you take me for? How big a supplement?
[21:32] * @Morgan smirks
[21:32] * Molly giggles
[21:34] (Molly) Now that I'm more intimately acquainted with you, I'd say it's quite a large supplement
[21:34] * Molly winks
[21:35] * @Morgan sniggers
[21:37] (Molly) I wonder if I'd ever have been brave enough to ask you to be my paramour
[21:37] (@Morgan) in a few years maybe
[21:37] * Molly looks thoughtful
[21:38] (Molly) Once the Rose was making money and I was more... Worldly, quite possibly
[21:38] * @Morgan nods
[21:38] (@Morgan) that's what I was thinking, aye
[21:39] (Molly) Would you have accepted?
[21:40] (@Morgan) I don't know, really...
[21:40] * Molly smiles
[21:40] (Molly) Too unconventional?
[21:41] (@Morgan) I think at some point it became obvious that I'd need to return to Sudlachenburg, and I don't think I could've done that floating around the oceans with you
[21:46] * Molly nods slowly
[21:46] (Molly) And had I initiated it, you would not have wanted me to join you?
[21:47] (@Morgan) I wouldn't have thought you'd want to give up the freedom of the sailing on the Rose
[21:48] (Molly) You hadn't planned for me to give travelling up to be your mistress?
[21:49] (@Morgan) you hadn't _gone_ travelling at that point
[21:49] * Molly smiles
[21:49] (Molly) True
[21:55] (@Morgan) besides, forward thinking isn't strictly speaking my strong point
[21:57] * Molly smiles
[21:58] (Molly) You wouldn't have been satisfied to only have me one or two nights a fortnight?
[21:59] (@Morgan) No, I don't think so
[21:59] * Molly nods
[22:00] (Molly) Were you not troubled that my gaining the Rose might end our time spent together?
[22:01] * @Morgan nods
[22:01] (@Morgan) I think that's part of what prompted me to start thinking about it properly
[22:01] (Molly) That you would lose me?
[22:02] (@Morgan) that if I didn't sort out what I was feeling and what I wanted, you'd have sailed off into the sunset
[22:02] * Molly nods
[22:03] (Molly) I might have...
[22:03] * Molly smirks
[22:03] (Molly) If I hadn't been so crazily in love with you
[22:04] (@Morgan) just as well really
[22:04] (Molly) All in all, we were lucky that the circumstances transpired as they did last autumn
[22:05] * @Morgan nods
[22:05] (@Morgan) aye
[22:06] (Molly) I feel very lucky to have you
[22:07] * Molly sips her tea
[22:07] (@Morgan) likewise
[22:08] * @Morgan swirls the cup for a moment before sipping the tea
[22:09] * Molly watches him intently for a moment before looking away
[22:10] (Molly) Did you know that in Capperlucia, it is the woman that holds all the power and titles?
[22:10] (@Morgan) is it?
[22:10] * Molly nods
[22:11] (@Morgan) what about succession?
[22:11] (Molly) Through the female line. 
[22:12] * Molly smiles
[22:12] (@Morgan) a matriarchal society... interesting...
[22:12] (Molly) I think it makes a good deal of sense
[22:13] (@Morgan) why?
[22:14] (Molly) It is much easier to maintain a clear line of succession when one's parent is entirely obvious
[22:14] (@Morgan) what if only a son is born?
[22:15] * @Morgan frowns briefly
[22:16] (@Morgan) Alarice is proof that that line of argument doesn't work as well as you think, incidentally
[22:16] (Molly) Oh?
[22:17] (@Morgan) well, it wasn't exactly straight forward tracing Varick’s line backwards, even just one or two steps
[22:19] * Molly nods
[22:19] (Molly) I suppose so
[22:19] * Molly smiles
[22:20] (Molly) As in our culture a woman is owned by her husband, a man is owned by his wife there
[22:20] * Molly sips her tea, watching him over the rim of her cup
[22:21] (@Morgan) I suppose it only seems strange because its contrary to what we're raised with
[22:21] * Molly nods
[22:22] (Molly) Their men are raised knowing their status just as girls are here
[22:22] * @Morgan wrinkles his nose before sipping his tea
[22:23] * Molly smiles
[22:24] (Molly) I do not see it is always a bad thing
[22:25] (@Morgan) not always, perhaps... I notice that doesn't seem to extend much once there's serious money involved though
[22:25] (Molly) Doesn't it?
[22:26] (@Morgan) look at Lady Torrington... and that Avalonian woman always following Mr Black around...
[22:26] (Molly) Which Avalonian woman?
[22:27] (@Morgan) dark hair, snooty, thinks an invite gets her run of the estate
[22:27] * Molly nods
[22:28] (Molly) Lady de Winter
[22:28] (@Morgan) that's the one
[22:29] (Molly) But in the eyes of the church, they would still be their husbands possessions to treat as he pleases
[22:31] * @Morgan sips his tea
[22:31] (@Morgan) and the church has always been such a force of reason and fairness....
[22:35] (Molly) It still allows for 'Domestic Chastisement' in the Church of Avalon
[22:35] * @Morgan snorts before swirling his cup again
[22:36] * Molly smiles slightly
[22:36] (@Morgan) The problem with almost any religion... turns out to be the men that govern it, shape its ideals, its policies
[22:36] * Molly nods thoughtfully
[22:37] (Molly) So the... Inclinations of the individual becomes acceptable practice
[22:37] * @Morgan nods
[22:38] * Molly looks at her cup
[22:40] (Molly) And if one man has the desire to take his wife in hand, it then applies to all
[22:41] * @Morgan nods
[22:41] (@Morgan) if the... properly placed man, has that desire, yes
[22:43] * Molly nods. He picks up a flicker in her thoughts of sweet sparkling wine, a scent of exotic herbs and several feminines voices laughing 
[22:45] * @Morgan watches her carefully
[22:46] * Molly smiles a little to herself
[22:46] (Molly) So, you may send Edward to run Innesbruck?
[22:46] (@Morgan) I might
[22:47] (@Morgan) well... I think once we have Heinrich in place, it'll mostly be as a face for people to see
[22:48] * Molly nods slightly
[22:48] (Molly) It does seem somewhat of a waste though
[22:48] (@Morgan) in what respect?
[22:49] (Molly) A quiet love-nest given over to an unmarried man

[22:50] (@Morgan) you're thinking HeinzHarold?
[22:51] * Molly looks thoughtful
[22:51] (Molly) I wasn't, but I like your thinking
[22:53] (@Morgan) You had another idea?
[22:54] * Molly blushes a little
[22:54] (Molly) We could live there, until your father dies
[22:54] (@Morgan) Even though he expects us to be in Sudlachenburg?
[22:55] * Molly nods
[22:55] (Molly) I think I could persuade him
[22:57] * @Morgan nods slowly
[22:59] * Molly chews her lower lip
[22:59] (Molly) You would not wish to?
[23:01] (@Morgan) I hadn't thought about it...
[23:06] * Molly nods
[23:06] * Molly nods
[23:06] (Molly) I'll do whatever you wish to
[23:06] (Molly) I'll do whatever you wish to
[23:06] (@Morgan) You'd wish to, though?
[23:06] (@Morgan) You'd wish to, though?
[23:07] (Molly) I've been giving the idea some thought
[23:07] (Molly) I've been giving the idea some thought
[23:09] * @Morgan nods

[23:09] (@Morgan) its an appealing idea
[23:09] (@Morgan) its an appealing idea
[23:09] (Molly) Is it?
[23:09] (Molly) Is it?
[23:09] * @Morgan nods
[23:09] * @Morgan nods
[23:10] (Molly) Just us, quiet, free to come and go as we please?
[23:10] (Molly) Just us, quiet, free to come and go as we please?

[23:10] (@Morgan) it'd make a nice change
[23:10] (@Morgan) it'd make a nice change

[23:12] (Molly) One of the best ways for you to prepare to become Graf could be through running your own land as Baron.

[23:13] (@Morgan) that makes sense

[23:16] (@Morgan) my fathers not the easiest person sometimes
