I have a favour to ask of you. My father, as you are well aware, has been indisposed for the last several months. Until that time, I trained with him every week. I find that my response times are slowing even though I exercise every morning and train younger members from among our ranks. Might you consider training me as your schedule permits, sir? The benefits of such an arrangement would prove extremely useful for not only my combat abilities but also my physical well-being.
