[There is something indeed about the way she says noble. A lesser man, then, well. When one is a Queen, Sieglinde imagines that most every man is technically lesser. Potentially jealous. Potentially... inclined to plots and schemes for the sake of politics and thrones. She does not know so much from personal experience, having had no other lords to rival her claims in her world, isolated as her village had been and her "rule", lie that it had been unchallenged... but she has consumed a frightening amount of literature on the subject and many others.
Freedmen means they were once slaves, and that adds another element to this she has no true experience with. Though she tries.]
If it was a marriage of political convenience, then I see no reason why not. Once the purpose is served, there is none else to prevent such, is there?
[Using a man for his wealth and status to one's own ends? Women sometimes had to work with what they had to accomplish their goals. The Outside World was a very biased place. Perhaps it's odd for a girl her age to speak so fine of such a thing, but she simply offers the fruit bowl.]
I myself can only imagine marriage if absolutely necessary to convince who I choose to sire my daughter... the Green Witch's tradition is far more independent, and we do not raise our heirs with fathers.
[For better or for worse.]
Though I must admit you make quite curious for your world, Queen Daenerys.
