A Brief Passage of Time
(*Edit*- I posted the wrong chapter)
At Lord Janus's inquiry, Lady Miranda had this to say,
"Uncle Janus, Adhania is a polygamous country. And ours is a monogonous. I'm afraid we have too different a way of thinking."
"For me personally, I think I will never be able to stand the idea of my husband sleeping with another woman so openly."
"Now, the men in Sybarsis are not too dissimilar. They also keep mistresses and fools around frequently."
"But they at least try to do so in secret, away from their wife's eyes, behind a curtain so to speak."
"Even if everybody knows, they at least try to keep that veneer of modesty."
"But in Adhania it is all open and legal. And they have so many types of women too! God!"
"Wife, main wife, concubines, maids, servants, whores…. the list goes on!"
