Learning under the tutelage of the best in their craft is, indeed, a unique experience worth fighting for. But it says something about you that you've managed to achieve the second-best title in the land (and therefore, *the* best of your generation) WITHOUT their teachings. So less sighing over opportunities missed and more bragging. That other class never stood a chance against you, with or without a teacher.
Nobody on this kingdom, be person or animal, is more high-maintenance than myself. Bring him, and let him talk. I shall have some fun with his fussing, mayhap show him what happens when someone tries to out-talk us.

Hah! You'd think, wouldn't you? But that'd only be true under normal circumstances. Despite what you'd think for someone teaching students, Teach was maybe only a couple years older than us, so I'd still say they're my generation - which means I'm still only second best, no matter how you slice it.
(I know, it's weird. The archbishop of the church back home, who was also in charge of the officers' academy - she basically drafted Teach to the teaching staff on a whim after Teach helped us three house leaders fight off a bandit attack. It was all pretty mysterious, and I still wish I knew what she was thinking...but she's been missing ever since the academy fell during the very first major attack of the civil war, so I'll probably never get to know.)
I think this one is good to wrap up?
