Consider: To salvage the alliance between the Goblin and Seelie courts that was jeopardized when Major K.P. Hob ran off with the Master of Ceremonies, The Lord and Lady offer up their next most eligible bachelor, Riz Gukgak, son of the late Sir Pok. And the Seelie Court (still feeling a bit spurned) offers up their least marriageable Earl, The Right Honourable Fabian A. Seacaster.

The Earl is a single Fey in possession of a great fortune and Riz, Esquire is well... not. But the Gukgaks are the most suitable (in non-Goblin standards) family in the Goblin Court, and if Fabian were to settle down with a stable spouse, then his ailing reputation would stand a chance to recover. Even if that spouse is nothing more than a humble journalist keeping the only Goblin newspaper alive.

Funnily enough, unbeknownst to the political machinations of either side, the two of them are some of the best of friends, and unbeknownst to each other, both young Fey have a deep affection for the other.
