"Hardly," V said. "I am in the middle of a mission of the utmost importance back home. If I were content to sit back and teach at such a young age, I'd have never left my spouse and young to go adventuring in the first place.

No, I shall learn what I can while here alongside my endeavours to return home, or at the least, make contact. With luck you shall all be rid of me by the end of this book."
