He continued to stare down at her for many moments before his gaze finally softened. Still there was a certain amount of edge to his tone when he spoke, despite the comforting manner in which his hand rested atop her head. "You will learn in time, but never forget your place child. It is dangerous...and not merely for the punishments you could earn from myself. Should you make light of another's title in their presence.....", he trailed off, letting her own imagination take that where it may.
