I do so love your stories.

What's Lucien been telling you now?

They are for your entertainment, my lord. I am glad to know you enjoy them, for those within surely did not.

Merely that I should probably go about trying to help you produce an heir.

He's been after you about that now too?

...I told him I would heed his advice regarding that. But I fear it would cause jealousy and greater unease among you all.

After most.

I told him it was not my choice, but yours. Short of seducing you, which, I am somewhat incapable of, there wasn't much to say.

After all, I am merely a storyteller, and a gift given.

Gifts can only be so much, my Lord. For gifts are always possessed, only to shine as brightly as they are polished.

Birds in pretty gilded cages.

Though my cage can lie open with no fear of me flying free.

I know.
I am sorry for that every day, though it was not by my hand or word that you were hurt.

I would have you be a dancer, if you could.

It is my fate, Cain. Just as we all are constantly spun our lives.

Once that could have been my fate, but it was woven differently, by another's hand, and you must not feel sorry for the actions of another.

If we begin thusly, we would all be sorry.

I despise the idea of fate.

I shall weave my own future, unencumbered by fate or curses.

I wish that you should, too.

... My lord speaks of wonderous things.

Fate can be defied.

It is... hard. To do.

My lady always speaks of wonderous things. She ought to be quite used to them. Perhaps they would even seem quite possible to her by now.

... Add perhaps she learns what can happen when one tries to want more?

One breaks free of fate.
