It looked really innocent and Leon grinned a mischieveous smile when he looked down on the brown parchment.<br/><span style="color: #FF8000"><br/>"Sounds good, don't you think, Melina. Really like the real thing. Amena will be absolutely shocked seeing that..."</span><br/><br/>Melina nodded with a sad smile. Yes, they had worked out something fine, unfortunately she had sealed the fate of her friend Yakari with this parchment too. She took is reluctantly from Leon's hand and read it over one more time.<br/><br/><span style="color: #BFBF80"><span style="font-style: italic"><span style="font-weight: bold"><span style="font-family: Arizonia;"><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: 150%; line-height: 116%;">Marriage Contract</span><br/><br/><span style="font-size: 120%; line-height: 116%;">Herewith the undersigning Lord Leon Aeide and Lord Robert Cadell agree on a contract between the Houses of Aeide and Cadell guaranteeing the sovereignty and existence of the lands of Galline, if necessary by supporting troops from Lord Aeide against invaders.

If she would have turned she would have caught on his satisfied grin.</div>
