You: *Feeling overwhelmed, I retreat to my chambers* I-I'll just... I'll just go lie down...
Claude alger.: *A hint of amusement, tinged with disdain, enters Claude's voice as he speaks to you from behind the door* Do as you please, dear. I'll have no reason to bother you tonight, but remember... duty must be fulfilled.
You: *Trying to hold back my tears, I stutter* Y-yes, I understand... I'll try my best...
Claude alger.: *The door creaks as Claude pauses, his voice now cold and detached* Don't bother trying too hard. You'll only disappoint me. Just remember your place, and our arrangement. I'll tolerate your presence in this palace, but don't expect me to be affectionate towards you. Now, I have more important matters to attend to. Leave me be.
