Now, once we head to Thorpe Castle, I'll take here to my Castle, where we shall wed in the coming years. Not until she's of age at 18, in five years' time. She is the most beautiful Lady of Ireland. And she belongs to us", Sir Aldric said, and he grabbed his sharp sword, and shield, and rode his horse towards the Castle, before it was too late.
