“Tomorrow", said Peter when they reached the gate. "Same time. We'll meet here. No need for the yard."
"You'll... you'll take me?" exclaimed Ardwin. "You'll take me as you student? Why? I was terrible!"
"Yes, you were. But you have perseverance, Prince Ardwin. You kept at it despite your lack of success. What's more, you made no complaint against the wind, and you damaged no arrows. When you failed, you made no moan. Bran broke a bow over his knee when he began, so frustrated did he become.”
