>>5957187>>5957523Glad to see you back, even if at the end of the thread. And of course, Isnott having nothing better to do than learning will probably be helpful about explaining you everything.
>>5957552>>5957754>>5957893You choose, after some words to Rose, to see Isnott Careless, the second son of the count, after all even if he was always reading books he was there and could probably inform you. You found him when he left the room and began to joyfully salute him once more.
-It was a long time since we traveled together, dear Isnott, how were you doing ? It is strange that you are not in the university in Bofuria was it ? Haha, you should have been driking carousing and learning all about all the brothels of the town like those students in Paris do. In my opinion it is at least more useful than reading books : you can get the smallpox or have some broken teeth in a tavern fight, but it is not always the case while losing your eyesight is the plague of each and every reader.
He looked at you, as if tired by your wise words, his tiredness must have come from a lack of active lifestyle. And the lack of direction of God and an Abbot that you could find in a monastery if you want to learn something so much. Isnott answered.
-I missed your wise advice so much Lord Charles. What can I do for you ? Ah... The university... You really needed to turn the blade in the wound ?
-Turn the blade in the wound ? What do you mean ?
Your tone was sincerely worried, even if Isnott was in your opinion a good for nothing embarassment for his father he was an embarassment that you knew and you would never be cruel with him on purpose. Seeing your tone he himself said that he was sorry.
-I... Excuse me, you did not knew isn't it ?
You shook your head.
-No, effectively not. What happened ?
He seemed a bit sad and explained you, in a hushed tone.
-Father has said that with the new political climate, and the new chancellor who... Isn't really a friend of the family or humans in general it would be better not to study at Bofuria. I tried to explain him that I had nothing against the elves but since he has something against them and that there is some paranoia at court he..
He tried to find the right words before explaining.
-He could be seen as trying to put me there to make some contacts with the Bofurian lords who would want our queen to be deposed. So no university for me I guess.
You felt sorry for the lad and explained him.
-I am sure you will find some other university or monastery somewhere. If someone was thrown out of Paris he could always go to Toulouse or Bologna after all.
He seemed to disagree.
-No, when we discussed about it with father, it was more rough than I expected and he menaced me of sending me to the Red Baron as a squire to "learn to be a man". Instead of sending me to a University here or even in the Imperial Corelands. I... Do not know what to do now. Maybe find some employment, work for a guild or...
