I think you understand well enough. People in this realm come from all sorts of odd places, so I can believe that in some of them young men are coddled and kept children until they are practically thirty, strange as it seems to me. My elder brother and his friends are certainly adults, though, and I intend to be ready to take up my responsibilities at seventeen. I'd consider it quite a fault and a failing if I wasn't capable of that much.
Ah. Then I do hope all your non-paying customers enjoy the water. That's commendably charitable of you.
