Big Duke repied petulantly, "My family has fallen on hard times ever since our exile from Earth. We can't fly in space without spaceships. Our wings got tiny and we got fat. And we can't find any proper maidens to capture to sell for loot."
Trixie was feeling a little sorry for him until the last bit, but she left without shooting him.
