This prediction is based on my experience. I've seen those characters become better after some suggestions; I was same noob years ago, and I am very grateful to everyone who helped me.

Ask Degorker, how would he threat Megrulla, if she would give him suggestion/hint on what he is doing wrong?

Also... If he would get offended - everything would go as it went and he would delete anyways. If it would go well, things probably would go better for everyone. It's riskless thing, imho, and would never hurt.
