"God watched over me. They sent me to the monastery when I was very young - and so I escaped the fever that took them all." His eyes widen at the latter part. "A most rare honour indeed."

Olivier smiles warmly, "And yet you doubt your worthiness to find your path here, when God has clearly set such a path before you? You are blessed indeed."

He ducks his head shyly. "It is and I strive every day to be worthy of the honour."

"I hope so. But Father Cuthbert warns me often against hubris." He nods. "It seems to me you must have proved your own worthiness already."

"Pride may be a sin but there is nothing wrong with being grateful for the blessings you have received." He prompts kindly.

He blushes a little. "In my lord's eyes perhaps but I still strive to earn it always and in all things I do."

[athelstanthescribe]

"That is certainly true", Athelstan agrees. "So you will be a knight, and high in the eyes of the world."

[equal_of_any_man]

"I am." He blushes again, a very modest soul. "Higher than I ever thought I could rise. And I will have land of my own. land I can make prosperous and green." A prospect that thrills him.

"It is not often given to the low-born to see such dreams come true", he says, smiling. "Though many do dream of it, no doubt. You will have tenants?"

[equal_of_any_man]

"A few. It is a small estate but I will make sure they are well provided for and hope to learn from their knowledge of the land."

[athelstanthescribe]

"There is no man who has nothing to teach, and no man who has nothing left to learn. It's a wise man who knows that."

[equal_of_any_man]

"You are learned indeed, brother." Olivier smiles.

{ooc: shall we fade there? I look forward to seeing him in the bar. I have a feeling he and Olivier will be fast friends.}

[ooc: fade there works! And he will be in today.]
