There is an old Grimm's tale (The Honest Huntsman or something like that). The hero goes out and dispatches a bunch of enemies and engages in numerous feats of skill and bravery. So at the end the king gives him a choice of which of his daughters to marry. As a kid, I was like, "Now that's the spirit." He takes the "eldest" since he was an older guy (prolly 28). I was like, seriously? However in Desiree's case, I think I might be prepared to make an exception.
