"My father, Count Inanis, already trusts in me to make decisions, Baron Hugh. And while it may seem a little alarming to you, it is in fact something that most people at this age learn to do, or even younger."
"My apologies, Young Lord Asher. I did not mean to offend you with my statement." Baron Hugh quickly said, as he became more attentive to the young man's condition.
