[A small tapping of fingers on a hard surface, and she's silent in her thoughts before speaking. Her voice bleeds a sickeningly sweet cheerfulness.]
...Oh, always something to add to the surprises, I do suppose. How pretty, may you all enjoy yourselves for the time being, then

As for the identity of my rescuer... Well now, that is an interesting thought, isn't it? Fortunately, I hardly consider myself foolish enough to believe you intend to let me go quite so easily.

And yet it was this country you so easily threaten that sealed you to begin with, was it not? How easily you seem to forget.
[another pause in which he appears to collect himself, judging by the tone of his voice when he speaks again]
