Piece of meat? I do not think of you as such for if I did I would be marrying a peasant but though can not deny that the purpose of women is to produce heirs and if it is not within your means to hire people than she must raise them

Lothair laughs at those words. He sips the ale again
Ah Lord Marsh...I doubt anyone would marry an exile like myself.

Lothair chuckles lightly and nods.
In a ways...you are right, Lord Marsh. Any recent news that I may have missed, my lord?

Lothair sighs lightly.
Does it involve his Eminence, the Archbishop?

I know not what else you could want from me? I offer your daughter a chance to become a Countess of England, your family a vast and bright future allied with the House of Neville but instead thou hast insulted me by calling my advances brutish. though thou art amoungst the peerage one should feel lucky when an Earl wishes your daughters hand in marriage and bless for the gift that he has sent you. My offer stands, though my patience will run dry. you have 1 week to decide Lord Marsh before I move on. good day Sir.

He nodded,
"It seems there is sharp disagreement concerning church power, authority, and its use.. I hardly know the root cause of it."
Marsh shrugged... He would consider the offer but, the Neville had very much misunderstood everything Marsh had stated.

Lothair sighs lightly and rubs his head.
Guess I am gonna have to wait to report to the Archbishop...
He then points to the gate.
Noticed an Earl leaving from your castle when I came down the road...he didn't seem pleased at all. Something wrong, my lord?

His eyebrow goes up slightly.
Didn't go well I take it? What are your intentions about it then?

Your daughter deserves the best. Not someone who looks upon her like that. I hope you can find the right man for your daughter, Lord Marsh.
Lothair finishes the ale and blinks his eyes, rubbing his head.
Always the tougher taste at the bottom...always.

Lothair looks at Marsh.
You have good allies, Lord Marsh. I know you will a perfect match for your daughter...a good and wise man who treats her like...a queen in the sense. With honor and sincerity. I believe that any man of noble heart that could have her would be very blessed.

Lothair thought of the words of Edmund, his advisor. He looked at Lord Marsh.
My liege, I have two questions...and forgive me for being so bold, but may I see your daughter?

Lothair smiles lightly.
I had not expected myself to ask, mi'lord. Curiosity only got to the best of me. Forgive me.
He looks out at the courtyard of Lord Marsh's fine castle.
My original intent was to come asking about the future of the Order...which I am in de facto command of. I plan to reorganize it as you heard at the Council. Align it more with the Crown and its authority. Do you have any opinion on that?

Bran Pendragon arrives to see Lord Marsh.
In the beginning, Prometheus brought fire to man. Wrong move.
