This has been quite the eventful night, hasn't it? My poor Tiffani couldn't handle all the excitement. Will you please excuse us while I borrow my husband? Thank you.
What was that?
Did you see how the Light Thief embarrassed her? I wanted to distract people from it.
So you announce her betrothal to everyone before you tell her?
All right, it was not my smartest choice. I panicked. I'm sorry. I didn't think she would react this way.
Because you don't know your daughter! You spent too much time with Alayna.
Things...went wrong. I wanted Tiffani to have more of a choice than us. Because doesn't get that now.
She needs more time to grieve. We all do.
I wish we had that luxury. The kingdom needs an heir.
Talk to your daughter.
You know, if you tear apart my table, you lose your soul. I'm quite fond of it.
High Judge, I...
No need to confess, I saw it all. You need forgiveness from your daughter before the Judge Lords will even consider it.
No, it's not that. Couldn't the judges detect the Light Thief?
So that's who he was? All he did was take energy from the crystals, not use magic. So we can't track him.
I just can't believe the nerve of that brazen peasant.
