"I had once seen you in our home coming to visit my son, who would have known you would be king today. Congratulations." Mr. Krain said and King Adrian nodded but kept silent.
"I know my daughter said this engagement was arranged by my son, but I want to know what you stand to gain from marrying her." he said.
"You sound as though the gain could never be good, Mr. Krain." King Adrian commented.
"I could excuse my son going off to do the Venerable Lady knows what, but I will not permit this behaviour extended to my daughter." Mr. Krain answered.
"Mr Krain, your son holds a very important ident.i.ty. Anyone who marries your daughter, be it a farmer or an ancient, this ident.i.ty becomes a weapon. Do you expect your son to leave his sister's marriage to the hands of fate or to those he is sure would not harm a hair on her head?" King Adrian asked.
"This is not the first time I have heard word of this special ident.i.ty. Pray tell, what may it be?" Mr. Krain asked.
"Only your son has the right to tell you this, I am but a middle man that cannot interfere in matters of your family."
"And as my son in law?" Mr. Krain asked.
"You mean to say, as Walter Krain's brother in law." King Adrian corrected. His words could not have been clearer to Mr. Krain. He could not boast of being the king's father in law. This was something society would not even consider. It does not matter who the king's father in law is, it matter's who his brother in law is.
"So after all said and done, Yerself and my son will be the ultimate winners of this all.." Mr. Krain too tired and angered to maintain a clean speech, returned to his normal speech pattern.
"Marrying a king does not seem to be a gain, it seems." King Adrian said with a sigh.

"Him put his sister in the mist of trouble n' yer all think this be gain?" Mr. Krain asked.
"Mr. Krain, you do not know half of what your son goes through, why do you a.s.sume it is trouble? This man sitting before you is the highest authority in the kingdom and by the way thing are going; in the entire Thriergor soon. Yet all you see is trouble. It is either you have good instincts or you do not wish your children to be greater than you." King Adrian said; his casual eyes hardening on Mr. Krain's form.
"You dare...?" Mr. Krain started.
"Mr. Krain, whether you like it or not, your son is a very important person and by extension, everyone in your family. Your daughter is going to be the mother of the nation; this king does not ask you to support her, but to cause her lesser worry."
