  On behalf of all of us that put so much work into the PPP (Princess 
Protection Plan) I resent that slur. We put a lot of gold and time into 
resettling both virgins and princesses. Of all of them the princesses, for the 
most part were the most ungreatful of the bunch too. All that "This bed is too 
hard. The food is terrible. I want to go hooome." If it hadn't been for my 
protectors oath, I would have sent most of them back. In all those centuries, 
only two were greatful for being kept alive.

  Truthfully, I owe my surviving the hero spell this long to the children of 
one. He studied long and hard to change it for me. Besides, I always liked 
Knights better. They had a higher "iron" content.

  Not the ones _I_ had to deal with. Sheesh, they way they would carry on. 
That's why I got stuck with getting them ready for their new lives. _I_ 
couldn't be seen, so _I_ was less "threatening."
