"In the context of family leadership and diplomatic alliances, the marital status of the heir is relevant to the stability of the faction my lady," the representative insisted.
"The stability of a faction is built on verifiable results and real political alliances," Luna replied. "Not on the personal life of its leaders being treated as a negotiable resource."
Orion intervened directly on this point.
"Miss Starweaver is of course free to make her own decisions." He said it with the dissimulated calm of someone conceding something that cost him nothing to concede. "Though there are decisions that generate consequences which affect the faction as a whole. The 'associations' an heir chooses affect the perception of the family."
