29: Loick and Couramance

"Isn't it strange to hear those titles and realize it's you they mean? We're growing old, Loick."

"Couramance, I can't believe you'll ever be old."

"Not while I have a young man to warm my bed. Speaking of warm beds, how is your princess?"

"At the vak Andras hunting lodge, having a lovely time."

"Indubitably. Are you lonely, then?"

"You're not the only one who has a young man to warm their bed."

"Ah, yes, very nice. But would you like a partner for the dancing? Young men aren't always chosen for their conversational aplomb."

"I'd love it. Shall we?"
