Master Fawley did not take kindly to hearing about the ritual. I had never seen a man so livid while hearing about something. I didn’t think a man of his character would care for a little bit of pain, but then he mentioned how Mother and Father could risk me dying. I felt myself turn terribly cold. I did not think marriage would be death. Mother and Father seemed unperturbed by this. Father said if he was looking for the money he wanted, he would do the ceremony. The sadness in Master Fawley came back then, and upon looking at my parents and looking at me, he nodded his head. We are to be wed in two weeks."
