"He has two older brother who are married and both have positions. Neither one wants the dukedom. It is in the Screeching Gorge which is on the edge of the Venomous Wilds. There are strange noises there that frighten most people. Plus the fact that it is right where we get many attacks. I have property inside of  the Venomous Wilds.<br/>He has a younger sister who is not of age to be even considered for a Duchess.<br/><br/>I have my own work and I am not sure if I want to continue the family Dukedom. I am like Dermot in the fact that I prefer not to be known as a princess, duchess, wizard, a wandering mage in the works which means that I am working on that degree. I am on my practical and must report to my professor at times.<br/>Perhaps it would be best if Dermot gave the title away. Perhaps he will be able to do more....... It is a good idea and his parents would be sorely disappointed. Perhaps if I find a good man to work as an overseer, I just might take it on. My land adjoins it.<br/>Thank you Lord Lyons for your advice and listening to me. I appreciate it." Mystique smiled with more warmth.
