"Why would?" Rhian countered. "Lady Hermione be Master Harry's proper Lady... if she not be really dumb. Be Lady of the House one day, Mistress of the elves. Unless she be really, really dumb. All elves be hoping she not. All be loving Lady Hermione, look forward to having her as Mistress. Master Harry not be her Master ... be her equal. But really, Lady Hermione be the Boss ... men folk be needing hand-holding and guidance. Same for elves, same for witches and wizards."
