The Emperor looks a bit surprised at Draiss' request, shaking his head. "I'm afraid I already have plans for them. They have both had their marriages arranged, since they were but cubs," he replies. "Though I suspect if we intended to do both, we might want to wait a year or two, partially to defer any consternation it might cause, giving them time to settle, before marrying you into my family, and partially because my free daughter is just old enough to be married, and as such, is quite a bit younger than you. I'd like to spend a bit more time with her, before I promise her away, though I certainly intend, if you are serious, to have the two of you seen together, in public, before it becomes common knowledge."
