The Autumn King sat back in the throne. Blood pearls changed things in his plans a bit. They were not so much a threat as a ingredient, a resource. One that could bring strife or the fruition of his life. The stormy eyes calmed to a simmering overcast color. "I can offer furs, leathers, and such at their prime for your trade of ores, gems, and such." His voice was not the clipped arrogant tone it had been, settling into a almost masculine purr. A vibration of power and elegance. "I can offer meat from the hunts as well." Tapping the arm of his throne a smile broke out upon the Fall King's face. It was clear he was trying to suppress it but to no avail. "And if I may throw my lot for those gems, and other things besides. Protection, power... vengeance." Turning fully to face her, his hand propping up his head as the Ancient Fae watched the Snow Queen.

His plan was taking a unexpected turn, but as most things do. Nothing in this Realm nor the Fae Realm was straight. To be straight would be to dive into death with open arms and red smile. It was all he could do to not watch the faces of the other two. His focus would have to be on this woman. "You're accomplishments are commendable. For one of such youth to attain such power. It does you credit." He shifted to uncross his leg from his knee and let them sprawl out lazily. "I am getting on in my years, ancient as I am. My Realm is stable and strong. Would that the Spring Queen still rule, but this is by far better. I offer up a alliance," Raising a finger he paused for a long minute. "In exchange for a heir from our blood both." He gave a predatory smile while he watched the Queen's face. Let Spring and Summer watch should this turn sour he would shrug it off and wave a hand saying till the next Queen who met his requirement.

"I am asking for your hand in a marriage alliance."
