So many rumors about, “now that Raf is engaged”. Zero rumors about, “now that Omoira is engaged”. Conclusion: these rumors are sexist.

That rumor wouldn’t make sense about Omoira. Omoira is Felicitoro. Being engaged does not alter her marriageable status, unless it was specified as part of her marriage contract.

They were all focusing on Omoira’s business acumen!

Though, now the real question is: was it just because nobody considered Omoira eligible before this, either? :thinking:

  • The Davenstern are very prolific writers.

I am shocked, shocked!, to hear that there is gambling in this establishment.
