Okay, that's what I thought: the neighboring noble's land is what will be handed to their daughter.  Which means either conquest (and maybe secret armies!) or some other arrangement by which this impoverished territory full of revolting<em>veth</em>and accounts in arrears is trading hands.<br/><br/>Hmmm.  That brings<em>another</em>possibility to mind, but I'm all out of Wisdom wagers...  :P<br/><br/><br/>Veth--n.  Peasants.  (lit. 'dirt')<br/><br/><br/>UPDATE: missed the bloody obvious.  Sorry 'bout that, RD.
