As noisy as they are, they will feed themselves with my head if you disappear just like that. Come back with her. The thought of a daughter and tiny children playing in this castle is much more enticing than just having a brooding son around.'' 

Aleister glanced at the man's back doubtfully, wondering if he was playing some tricks, ''Whose daughter is she?" he asked the question that was lingering in his head.
