Edward, while I would and will support you in getting revenge, such a move is unwise for one reason alone, all else being nothing to the surge of passion that is such a virtue of your spirit. Would this reason not exist, wholeheartedly I would encourage you to eradicate all he loves.

[except Paloma.

pausing, she leans in to whisper to him.]

If you anger Henry too far, too brashly, I wonder if he would gain enough resolve to consider asking their Majesties for some means to restrain you. We both know they are capable of things beyond ourselves, surely they could do it - and it would wound me gravely indeed to know you were bound in a way that none but he could free you from. Enact your anger with care, though, make him suffer through such a way that his intelligence must inform him he deserves every bit of his pain, and you would have him working for your shared sake.

[and she draws back then, gently resting a gloved hand on his face.]

Do you want my assistance to solve this problem of yours?
