Having spent a few days moping in my tower and drinking more wine than I ought, I've concluded that my options are to either keep doing that until I successfully drink myself to death, or accept that I am here and this is my life until the Maker decides otherwise. The latter seems a smarter choice, as drinking myself to death would involve too many headaches on the way.
That said, the only things I've ever done for a living are knighthood, bodyguarding/decorative husband, and dairy farming. Are any of those viable options in Vallo?
