Two working-class folks were advising each other, with Dust Beater in a particularly bad state tonight. Normally a teetotaler, just two drinks had him spilling out everything he'd been holding back.
He said in a feeble voice:
"This afternoon, I went to see the Pallian Sisters; I wanted to clear things up and ask for their forgiveness. But they told me that they have already decided to follow the merchant group to study at Charldo Harbor. Mrs. Pallian has used her connections with Professor Malcolm to enroll them in school, and they have even secured a recommendation letter from Governor Milian.
They're going to study at the Administrative College, and it will take at least four years to graduate.
