We're fortunate to have you. I daresay our scholars and soldiers own a deal less experience than even that. [ but: ] Do you think you'll return to it?

[sprent]

Thank you Isaac. I'm fortunate to be here.

(And she still sounds just as casually optimistic when she says,) No, that ship has sailed. My younger brother'll have the job now.

[wythersake]

Perhaps he'd consider hiring you on. If you could stand to be bossed about – I understand younger brothers often due a bit of revenge.

[sprent]

Oh, he'd never do that. He knows if I got in there I'd immediately start to boss him about.

Do you have any siblings?

[wythersake]

An elder sister – [ which must explain whose side he's on ] – And two brothers when I left, so I trust she didn't go without servants.
