My goodness, that's quite a loaf! But how ever shall it fit my oven?


Crantius Colto

This loaf isn't ready for baking, my sweet. It has yet to rise.


Lifts-Her-Tail

If only we could hurry that along. How would I accomplish such a task?


Crantius Colto

Oh, my foolish little Argonian maid, you must use your hands.


Lifts-Her-Tail

You wish me to knead the loaf? Here?


Crantius Colto

Of course.


Lifts-Her-Tail

But what if the mistress catches me? Your loaf was meant to satisfy her appetite.


Crantius Colto

Don't fret, my delicate flower. I'll satisfy the mistress's cravings later.


Lifts-Her-Tail

Very well, but I'm afraid my oven isn't hot enough. It could take hours!


Crantius Colto

Plenty of time, my sweet. Plenty of time.
