Ves closed his eyes and tried to formulate a proper response to Lady Aisling Curver.
Normally, he would have tried to avoid this topic at all cost, but he was tired of running away from this issue.
The specter of Aisling was hardly the only person who questioned the wisdom of hooking up with Gloriana. Plenty of clansmen and outsiders had asked the same question, and he never managed to form a coherent reply.

"Gloriana… is an intense woman." He began. "She is a passionate woman. She knows what she wants and is decisive in her actions. I admire all of those traits. Sure, you have shown the same qualities, but there are differences."
"Like what, Ves?" Patricia asked as she adopted an expectant expression.
