"V-Vlad!" Farnese gasps after seeing you present yourself to her father in such a moronic opening statement.
Serpico would attempt to scold you in most occasions, but he is too busy holding his laughter in.
"What is the meaning of this insolence, Phantom? Are you in such a hurry to die? I doubt half of your nerve equates to your energy, seeing as how the three of you are in complete shambles." He addresses your antiquated garment and your slouched posture onto Farnese.
"You can relax, Lord Vandimion. The Holy Iron Chain Knights are alive, or at least, a good portion of the nobles. They have merely disbanded when they were dissolved into my army?"
"Your army? And might I ask how did you raise one while indoctrinating them under your wing?"
"You are sorely mistaking if you believe that this is how I operate in my government. I guess it is time for me to properly introduce myself: Lord Vandimion, I amthe last member of the Silver Clan, Champion of the Ilos coliseum, a lord, a warrior, and most importantly, your future son in law. But you can just call me Vlad Santana, for short. The reason The Iron Chain Knights went away was for the same reason your daughter left. The shunning of the younger generation by patriarchs like you leads into aimless teens who are left to fend off for themselves in a large world they don't comprehend. Only instead of making the women a prime target for indulging in pornographic acts, the men are either pushed off into extensions of your power, or turned into soldiers with no individuality. At least with me, they were allowed to live life for some time."
"And here I thought my daughter would give me the biggest of headaches today... Not only did she invite one of Midland's most tarnished perverts into my home. I found out that he is alive, manipulating my daughter into marrying her for political power!"
"As much as you would like to infantilize her Milord, she is old enough to make her own decisions. In fact, I believe she has something to say." You lead her into confronting her own father.
"F-F-ather... I'm sorry to disappoint you once again, but I really do love Vlad, and if it's not too much to ask, I do wish you could treat him with more respect."
With the meek tone she addressed her father, you wonder how she was deemed as a brat in his eyes.
"He shall be treated with much respect once he gets the life sentence he escaped whatever cell he crawled out of. Is there anything else you want to waste my time with? I am late for my private meeting."
Frederico announces his intent of calling the guards onto you. What a warm, welcoming family indeed...
