 _self_say How may I serve you my King? 
 _partner_say Knight, did you see that? That flicker of light? I believe we have fairies around us 
 _self_say The small folk would say we are about to receive their blessing. 
 _partner_say Do you see how badly the entrance to the castle has become? It needs repair, but I am afraid that we would chase off the fairies and the magical quality would be of no more 
 _self_say Yes, fairy magic can be dangerous if handled improperly.  Have you consulted the court wizard? 
 _partner_say You are right! Please have the servants tell the wizard that I summon him before me 
 _self_say Right away sire!  Anyone else you wish to consult with? 
 _partner_say The high priestess! And the witch. 
 _self_say The witch!  Can she be trusted? 
 _partner_say She will or she will be thrown in the castle prison! 
 _self_say You are wise sire! 
 _partner_say I only can be as wise as my men, for everyone gives me much education. 
 _self_say We could all learn to be as wise as you, oh great king!
