*looks at both men and sighes* "it is as I suspected, things are tricky. *takes the parchment* this I've translated so far..'it is as I feared my fifth wive and youngest one is dead, I king Asharl I'm left with four wives and a hungry baby. Again I'm looking forward to marry again and hope that she'll take care of the fellow that is now fed with a bottle filled with cow milk instead of drinking the good milk coming from his mothers breasts...' *scratches ears then reads on* 'two weeks have passed since the death of my fifth wive and a witness has come forth claiming that my first wive is responsable, I decide to confront her with the witness.' *looks up and sighes* "Mh that was to be expected, Isil, women who can't give birth to children by their own, are jealous upon the ones who can" Gonfindl speaks. I only can nod and then continue the reading "'Am I cursed?! My first wive, she has confessed...law says I have execute her, but I still love her, ..., despite that I command the guard to execute her for the murder, a swift death by the sword that is all I can do for her. ... Three months have passed, winter is falling and I decide to marry again with two young women from a nearby town. I also notice that people start to immigrate and very soon I'll be able to declare a new law: women can choose divorce their shared husband and marry again to live a life as single couple or stay with the man they married first. ... I'm married again and my two new wives are waiting for me upon the bed, it is time for me to drop the quill and consume marriage, hoping that more children will be born for I adore the ones I have already, yet I long for more...'" *gazes at Gonfindle who is grinning* what are you laughing for?" I ask "nothing my heart, but...I just realize that you're not that different, sharing the bed with the two of us, me and Golradir." "At least you're not jealous at eachother, come we have a bakery to run..." I respond before rolling up the parchments.
