AFTER LUCIUS told Van that he'd like to propose a political marriage to Gypsy Woolsey, he laughed at the knight's unchanging poker face. "You don't believe me, do you?"
"Your Highness is a sentimental person," Van said bluntly. "I've always thought that Your Highness will marry out of love. However, if Your Highness chose to have a political marriage in the end, then I shall support your decision– no questions asked."
He smiled widely.
This was why he chose Van as his personal knight.
[He always gives me his full support.]
"You're right," he said to the knight while nodding. "I'd like to marry out of love if I have the choice."
Van looked satisfied by his answer. "But if Your Highness will be forced to get into a political marriage in order to gain more power, I believe Lady Woolsey is a good choice."
