Everyone knew it. He just needed the damn fool to get in the arena, win his joust, and Robert could speak to him. He wondered what the best way to approach the man would be. Melina had been right, Amena was no grand offer to Leon--but Amena did love Yakari and Leon loved to make Yakari unhappy. Melina had suggested he offer Amena to Rufus, but he wanted to make sure Leon made her believe that he would marry her, then hand her off to Rufus. It would make the situation for all parties, as Amena would be relieved to be with Rufus rather than the brutal Leon.<br/><br/>However, it would be difficult to keep her faithful to Rufus if Yakari still remained around. He had no doubt, though, that it would be easy to convince Leon to cast Yakari out, effectively keeping Amena and Yakari apart. She was a good girl and even if she was forced into a marriage, as long as the temptation wasn't visible--she would not run off to Yakari. But perhaps he should simply ask that Leon marry Amena and let Melina coax him into shifting Amena into Rufus' hands. If it didn't look like Robert had intended it from the beginning, perhaps Leon would be more inclined to submit to such a thing.<br/><br/>His thoughts then turned to Melina. She was perfect for his personality as it was now, and if she managed to find his wife's killer, it was likely he would finally be able to feel the relief that he had so desperately desired for so many years. Even now, though he was not aware, a seed had been planted in him. He cared for the girl--could relate well to her. That connection, that bit of similarity between them made him desire nothing but to help her, though he did not know it.
