"Yes, we could probably rearrange the stall for them." Maric agreed with a sad smile. "And I'm sure that we can make it as homely as possible."<br/>The words that Nimue said in retort to him telling her to be careful stung the paladin almost as badly as any spear could. He did not think of her as a house flower, nor did he think her helpless. He simply wanted to help her become stronger than she already was so that when he was not at her side, his heart could remain at ease. So that he did not have to worry for her as much. And for Nimue to bring up Laana like that... now that hurt him deeply. That particular subject hurt him deeper than he let on, as it reminded him of the mistakes he had once made.<br/>"Do not worry, I'm sure she'll love you." Maric whispered gently in Nimue's ear as she sat in his lap. "Just show her around the countryside when she arrives. She loves nature. The girl works at a flower shop in fact. I'll probably get her to help with flower arrangements for our ceremony actually. There is no one that can make those as beautiful as Samantha."<br/>He was happy for Faren that he could find someone like her to love. If it was another girl, he'd probably be rather defencive of the boy. After all, he had pretty much raised him since he was a young lad.
