Quote by Deeanne Gist

That first scream, my lord, was indeed your daughter, my wife, and if you kill me, your grandchild will be quite without a father. Won't you come in?

That first scream, my lord, was indeed your daughter, my wif

Summary

In this quote, the speaker desperately appeals to the listener (presumably the lord) to reconsider his actions. The scream mentioned refers to the speaker's wife, who is the lord's daughter. By emphasizing the familial connections, the speaker ventures to dissuade the lord from harming him, reminding him of the consequence his death would have on their own future generations. The quote ends by delicately inviting the lord to engage in a dialogue, implying that open communication might be a more constructive resolution to the conflict.
