|| "You are you."

Words you do not expect to encounter in such fantasy setting: city boy.

I'm sensing a budding inspiration for Fool dressed in voluminous skirts.

Aww.

Ha. Such a play this moment with Fitz and Chade catching up at Withywoods as various folks keep entering the scene one by one.

Fitz appearing selective in relative blindness bringing worth slight nostalgia laced amusement. Forest for the trees and what not. Customary self-flogging may well ensue still.
