Let it go and retain Lord Richard's respect

You quickly shoot Lord Richard a look and he takes the hint.... He grabs Margaret by the neck and hauls her off back down the hallway. Minutes later they return. Sara looks emotionally broken and Lord Richard looks to you and says "My Prince, I have informed her that if she acts out again you will have my full approval to... take dominion over her...."

You suddenly see Kathryn smile and almost jump at the thought of you taking dominion over the evil bitch that wants her gone.

"That's fine with me." You reply with an evil grin, staring at Margaret who tries to avoid your gaze.

He quickly responds "Good and thank you, my future king for allowing me the chance to... correct her behavior... I am fully aware that you did not have to do that, and I am forever in your debt for your restraint."

As he privately wishes both of his adopted daughters goodbye Rachael whispers in your ear. "That was your chance to help out your sister you know... You could've done anything to Sara..." Smiling evilly she adds, "You could even have Lord Richard kill her himself and he could not do a thing about it.... "

You turn towards Rachael and tell her quietly, "Yes I could have done that... but I know Margaret... she won't be able to behave and within a fortnight, she will be added to my dominion.... Now I have gained even more of Lord Richard's trust and loyalty while helping out my sister. "

Rachael smiles and says, "Mmmm you sure are a clever one..."

You quickly look away from Rachael as the other two girls join you. Elizabeth looks like an excited puppy ready to go for a walk. She is fully equipped with a short sword and bow while Margaret looks more like a whipped old dog with her head hanging low. Being too much of a girly girl she never learned how to use any combat arms... so she is only equipped with a dagger.
