Summary
“You are wasting your time," Ormund said. He didn't raise his voice; he simply let it drop down the stone walls like cold water. "And the guard's time. And the blacksmith's steel."
Gwayne’s face flushed red with heat and humiliation. "I’m going to be a knight. My father said I could train."
"Your father indulges you because he finds your stubbornness amusing," Ormund replied smoothly. "He knows what you are, even if you refuse to accept it.”
"The Seven haven't said a word to me," Gwayne spat, wiping his nose on his sleeve. "And unless they sent you down here to hold a shield, I suggest you take your little silver egg back inside before the mud ruins your slippers."

"You require both," Ormund countered smoothly.
