Wilhelmine- "Baba Yaga! Oh great Ogress of times forgotten! Here the plea of a child of fire!"

Wilhelmine-" Baba Yaga! Oh powerful sorceress from days of yore, subduer of dragons Destroyer of the Enduk empire! I Wilhelmine Vlaardoen of the Braejr nation, Implore you to listen to my request."
(Wilhelmine quietly activates a protection spell)
Baba Yaga- "You..... want a child......"
Wilhelmine- "Yes, great witch. You are truly all knowing."
Baba Yaga- "There is......... a price......"
Wilhelmine- "Of course, mother of ogres, I bring with me the Staff of Eiryndul, stolen from the hated elves."
Baba Yaga- "That is..... not...... enough....."
Wilhelmine- "What else would you ask? I can you all the riches of Linden!"

Wilhelmine- "You can't be serious?! the whole continent?!"
Baba Yaga- "Drink this potion......after being with your male............ you will have a daughter...."
