The Red Wolfs Speech

she said "what have you to offer me?" I answered with sincerity. "my queen, i am humble. i have not much to offer, as i have no money or kin to speak of. but heed my words, queen, as i come for reasons even god would not understand. i bring to you, my queen, only what you see. i offer to you my heart. let the blood it flows sustain you. i offer you my soul, and may its vitality teach you more than any teacher. i give you my body, and may its warmth keep you through the night, so that you may never be alone, my queen, so long as i live.
