Camius's Task

"Doc, today you pronounced me incompetent, and now I'm corrupt too!" Camius had a playful, wry smile, finding his cover both funny and a bit demeaning.

"Heh, what's the matter? Afraid no girl will ever want to marry you!" Cambyses could not help but join in, sending a mirthful taunt at Camius.

Alexander too said his part, "Haha, yes, yes. As a lord, you must get a few little devils as soon as possible. I look eagerly forward to it."

Alexander's playful teasing did not deter Camius, as not to be outdone, Camius also countered, "Well said, doc. I was thinking about Mean. What do you say?"

Camius said this knowing the duo's relationship; thus, this was an attempt to poke at Alexander and Cambyses.

"Hahaha," This was Cambyses, who found the mere mention of it belly-hurtlingly funny, and began to laugh so hard at his ridiculous proposal that she almost fell off the couch.
