It was morning and Biham was sitting with his wife Sirrah in his antechamber, having lemon tea.
"It looks like Morava has finally persuaded the king to marry her. She has shown her strength that she can be a good queen by controlling her anger," said Sirrah. "I have only been getting good news from the Draka kingdom about her. People have accepted her and praised her a lot. They especially talk about how beautiful she is and that she would look lovely sitting as a queen on the throne of Draka. Alpha Alrakis is also satisfied with this arrangement. I think we should send the marriage proposal to Eltanin for our daughter as soon as possible. We shouldn't let go of this opportunity and hit the iron while it is hot." She was proud of her daughter.
