Lisandra tries to protest
Lisandra tries to protest, but then she chokes on her words, as your words touch her heart. It takes her another two tries before she can say what's on her mind. "I'm your father's whore, and by lying in bed with me, you have uncovered your father's nakedness,"
You know which part of the scripture she is referring to, but while she has the right intent, Lisandra has not the knowledge and understanding of the said scripture to fully convince you. "You're not my father's wife, are you?"
"No."
"Then that doesn't apply to you, since the text's exact words are, 'If a man lies with his father's wife, he has uncovered his father's nakedness; both of them shall surely be put to death; their blood is upon them.' Lis, you were a mistress, never a concubine, even more a wife. And our child, as much as I would love and care for, may not be the heir of the kingdom."
"I don't dare to be impertinent to entertain such a thought. All I want is for the child to be happy."
"And I promise to make it and its mother happy."
