- "Do you remember our boy Jan, my lady? Perhaps you don't recall, but the two of you were playmates as children. So many nights you came sneaking back home after dark, and I would scold the two of you together. It felt as if I'd gained a daughter! Of course, Jan's a grown man now. He works with his father, looking after the town and tending to our estate. But I have heard him murmur more than once over the years... "I wonder where Lady Primrose might be now..." And now fate has brought you back to us at last. A splendid thing, is it not?" —To Primrose
