His daughter deserves children and it's only right that I provide recompense by equivalent exchange for the damages wrought upon the prospective bridegroom, those words were Dragon Lord Blaine's not mine."

They are thrilled by the offer and think that I could get no better offer so no help would be forthcoming from them."
