Our only resource is in the line of deception, and if we cannot deceive them, then we have ceased to be women.” YOU MEAN IMMEDIATELY FATAL DO YOU NOT SUGGESTED SANTICKY I COULDN'T MYSELF REPAIR A CAKE WHICH WOULD IN TIME REDUCE OUR CAPTORS TO A STATE OF ABSOLUTE DEPENDENCE BUT OF COURSE THE EFFECT IS NOT IMMEDIATE WE MIGHT GIVE A MUSICALE AND LET CHILBY SING BED BOTH TO THEM SUGGESTED MARGUERITE DE VALOIS WITH A GIGGLE DON'T BE FLIPPANT PLEASE SAID PORTIA WE HAVEN'T TIME TO WASTE ON FLIPPANT SUGGESTIONS PERHAPS A COURT MARTIAL OF THESE PIRATES SUPPLEMENTED BY A YARD ARM WOULDN'T BE A BAD THING I'LL PROSECUTE THE CASE YOU FORGET THAT YOU ARE DEALING WITH IMMORTAL SPIRITS OBSERVED CLEOPATRA IF THESE CREATURES WERE MORTAL HANGING THEM WOULD BE ALL RIGHT AND COMPARATIVELY EASY CONSIDERING THAT WE OUTNUMBER THEM TEN TO ONE AND HAVE MANY RESOURCES FOR GETTING THEM MORE OR LESS IN OUR POWER BUT THEY ARE NOT THEY HAVE GONE THROUGH THE REFINING PROCESS OF DISSOLUTION ONCE AND THERE'S AN END TO THAT OUR ONLY RESOURCE IS IN THE LINE OF DECEPTION AND IF WE CANNOT DECEIVE THEM THEN WE HAVE CEASED TO BE WOMEN
