‘Fortune obtained by licentious deeds is of no merit – perhaps of the same weight of your futile mewls. You ought bestow it to the church’s foundation. Better to God than the livelihood of a harlot.’

“More pleasurable? Oh, oh my.”

“Thank you ; for laughing, that is. It’s a nice change over looks of disgust. As if noblewoman don’t open their legs all the time for their men.”

“A fee? Do you charge people for this sort of thing often?”

“No -- mostly I charge them for far pleasurable activities.”

“I wasn’t… You’re much better at it than I am, I take it?”

“If you mean lying, well, of course! For a fee, I may even provide lessons.”

“I’m fine yes, just feeling a bit faint all the sudden.”
