Beren nodded, his head almost spinning with the details, "I have heard about the emerald though its connection with the murder tonight I cannot fathom. As for The lady Stone.... I don't know what to think, it was a odd murder. I think your right as to the diamond shape, perhaps it connected to the emerald, I wouldn't rule it out. As for the letters I am as confused as you are. And as for Miss Sophia..... you are right in saying I have fallen hard for her but what you ask is not easy! How am I to carry on the line if I turn her now? And how could I live with myself if I don't turn her and she dies because of it?!"<br/><br/>Beren scowled, he had one big task, to have a male child and continue the line. Now he was being asked to put that aside.... though he wanted to, he wanted to make Sophia safe, was that just selfish of him?<br/><br/>Beren looked up at Vincent, "Let me think about Sophia, I will protect her for now, I need to think about how to handle this. I am having tea with them tomorrow, perhaps I will get closer to my choice then."
