Summary
Lancer chuckles wryly. “You know…I’m a little jealous of Lady Rin. She can take her time to become an adult, she has you and her mother to teach her what she needs to learn…”
Lord Tokiomi sighs deeply. “If only it were so simple. Mages are taught young—a fresh mind isn’t as deeply entrenched in older thoughts; it can adapt and change with the times. Not that there’s much change to be had in the Mage community.” His laughter is brittle and forced. “One day, Rin will have to learn how to push aside her humanity for her own goals. And I’m unsure if I want to be there when that happens.”
Lancer raises his eyebrows. “How unfortunate that I promised to keep you alive, then.”
In which Tokiomi receives a valiant vassal, and Lancer finds himself torn between his duty as a knight and his duty to his Lord's family as a whole.
