You've done well for yourself. Anyone can see that - but I wonder if they see how truly valuable you and the wealth of knowledge you've worked to learn are. If it were up to me, you'd be among the crown jewels. But it isn't. Not yet.
And it might never be, if I don't take your notations to heart. I'm not much for dancing - though I hope that's not enough to cause another foreign dispute. You seem fairly confident in judging, and my Mother would be disappointed to know her good dining etiquette doesn't traverse into the old lands.
Still. I think I'd rather it rest in your capable hands.
Young age is full of them - until it isn't. Rest assured, that's a shared sentiment. But it hardly seems fair to leave you without some now, or at the very least - time to yourself. A lack of meals, no more pleasantries...some might consider that barbaric.
No need to hope for that when you've already managed to accomplish it. The apple was a very pleasant surprise, for which you have my thanks. I like the things most men do - grapes, the drinks derived from grain and rye and wild meat. Now the only thing that might comfort me is to return the favor.
Maybe you might even learn a little something obscene out of it. I know it too.
