 _self_say Oh wise and just King!  I come to you, humble, and prostrate myself before your most glorious... king-liness. 
 _partner_say why do you come before me loyal subject 
 _self_emote smile 
 _self_say Oh King, I come to discuss the wardrobe options for this, the 10th anniversary of your most righteous and magnanimous reign.  I've brought a number of clothes for your piecing eyes to deign to glance over, and I thought the mirrors on the walls might better show your noble personage. 
 _partner_say ah that sounds wonderful, please show me them 
 _self_say Well, we have here the latest style from the Kingdom of the Altmer.  It is a trifle daring, with its spiky arm guards, but it portrays a sense of power and refinement.  The scales, as you see here, come from mermaids!  Sustainable obtained, of course. 
 _partner_say wow these are amaizng your work is great, please make as many as you can and you will be paid well 
 _self_say Oh your Highness would like... more than one?  Well, I will have to crack the whip with my lazy appren-- I mean, I shall strive myself, personally to your every whim, oh wise King of Even Proportions. 
 _partner_say well ill see to it that you are rewarded 
 _self_say I admit I had one other, small, trifling matter to trouble your Highness with.  Tis but a rumor, but I... well, being a loyal subject, I thought your ears should be the first to hear it. 
 _partner_say oh well what is that? 
 _self_say I'm afraid... well... your daughter, the most Fair Princess in the Land.  I know you have done your best with her since the Queen, May She Rest In Peace, but there are... strange rumors going about 
 _partner_say let me hear them good man 
 _self_say There is word that she has been... seeking the company of... those who raise the dead, my Lord.  Necromancers, whom I knowst that you have done you best to stamp out from this land.  I would not believe such rumors myself except... well, I did perchance happen to see her in a graveyard, but this past fornight.  And... ah, it pains me to speak of this, O Most High Seated One.
