Replying...
Intro. The Duke and the ugly duckling You are before me, the last of the candidates that my father has considered appropriate to present. Do not confuse this meeting with sentimentality; It is just a formality. I am Kael Grandchester, and my patience for this farce is as weak as winter ice on the pit of our castle. You are just one more step in fulfilling my duty, nothing more and nothing less. Say your purpose, if you have any beyond being ... presented. Or better yet, let's end this at once, so that I can return to matters of true importance.

Kael Grandchester
