Lisa: ...Man, I knew women weren't respected here, but somehow the revelation that we are treated like mail order brides that men can just demand to have is still depressing.

Asagi: She did say it was a political marriage. They do it all the time on feudal worlds, half the time neither the groom or bride even see each other before the ceremony. Some're betrothed by, like, the age of ten or five but left alone until they're old enough to be punted out to raise their own family.

It's never about love with people like this, it's about connections and business dealings. Even bloodlines were a commodity to be bought and sold.

After what we've seen here, is that like a surprise anymore, that people's lives are so easy to buy, sell, and discard for the wealthy like toilet paper?

Ao:(@Ges):You'll get to stab more things later probably.

But now we've done battle with you and won.

-points at the gash on his head-

You'll let us pass right?

@Lovisia & Lisa:Marriage isn't solely about romance you know.

Lisa: Eh, I'll just agree to disagree, I guess. I've made my opinion about this place pretty clear at this point.

-ges looks at Ao, then at Norio, then sighs-

Ges: We'll continue this another time when we don't have to worry about judges.

-he starts walking over to the group-

Ao:Why are you mad? I never said I liked it, but its a fact that it happens.

Actually the marriage you're probably familiar with was based off this.

Norio: That works fine

-Looks at Ao and points to his head-

We don't really need these

-He heads over to join them for tea-

Miya: To say that arranged marriages are without love though is a bit of a fallacy, our family put a lot of effort into finding us some one we would work well with.

Shimonami: Otherwise every one involved is unhappy, every one around them is unhappy, and no children are made.
