"My wife brought up the possibility of such a compromise before this meeting. I understand that some more conservative elements of the council are concerned about proper succession, and forging alliances through marriage, as was traditional. However... our current situation has left us vulnerable.... and there is the princess' happiness to be considered.
As such, when Mera agreed to endorse this possibility, I told her what I'll tell you now. I cannot fly in the face of the council's decrees, or try and gain special favors for my family... as such, I cannot support this resolution... but I won't oppose it either. If the council agrees to allow the princess to marry as she will, I'll step aside."
As reasonable as he's going to get.
