"The High Sun ceremony, itself, is fairly simple. It's more a time of celebration and revelry, than anything else, though we can easily add a full ceremony on top of it, for inducting you into the nobility. It's really more a simple ritual, than anything else, and you'll only need to memorize a simple pledge, and, of course, prepare a speech. But, if you refuse... then I will simply have to<em>order</em>you to marry one of my daughters. After all, I can't let any of the houses claim a prize as valuable as you."
