"You’re the most meritorious subject, so whatever you say is fine. If you want, I could expand the territory of the Lartman duchy, give you tax exemptions, or enact any law you desire."
"My, what an honor."
After continuing their conversation with smiling faces, Liv checked her wristwatch and spoke.
"Ah, come to think of it, it’s almost time for the government affairs meeting."
