Oh, yeah? Well, what if I disguised myself as a wretched old beggar-woman and came to beg for food at your royal feast and then invoked the laws of hospitality to beg a small favor from the king and when you said “If it is in my power to grant your request, it shall be granted” I unmasked myself and said “Ah-ha! I ask for your throne and your daughter’s hand in marriage!”? What would you do then? You wouldn’t do shit. You’re devastated right now.

You wish you could execute me so bad but your whole court just watched you get played for a sucker and not even a king can violate the laws of hospitality. You’re shaking and crying rn.

I’d give you my chair, then apologize that my daughter’s hand is hers, not mine, and therefore not within my power to give.

Crown’s still mine.
