My wife...
-
delivered this information with my knowledge and approval.
-
But I myself am untainted by her actions,
-
So there is no debt.
-
But you also have no means
-
by which to blackmail me or the temple,
-
which seems to me to be the true purpose
-
of our conversation today.
-
You have no allies here,
-
no one to bribe or bully.
-
And the statue will never, ever enter the temple.
-
So you say.
