Your Highness, I fear you are altering the recipe for your replacement to such a degree that I would be remiss to sanction your request. Using nine progenitors of darkness could have devastating results we couldn't even imagine. Please refer to Section 8.3 of the Brittlebane Grimoire and Recipe Book for a complete list of all necessary ingredients. A balance of dark and light is imperative. I shall have the correct items delivered to the Rowen Grove at the appointed time.

Sincerely,

Calvin E. Dalb

You shall provide every item I requested by the appointed hour, or you shall spend the rest of your days tied up in my dungeon. And not in a good way!

Sincerely,

Queen Petronella

I beg you to reconsider. I understand you want a viable heir, but this formula could create a monster of untold proportions.

(There you go! I'm a monster of untold proportions! Knew it!)

The dungeon awaits, and I've ordered ropes with extra chafing ability!
