"She wasn't ready to hear it. It was not long ago that she made it clear that she wasn't ready. Though she has taken it alot better than I expected." He smiles.

"You would have a whole army if she let you."

"There's nothing wrong with that. You will find out one day."

I don't answer. My first mate had been unexpected. The chances of finding another seemed unlikely.
