cool detail-- Patera Silk tricked his new fencing instructor into believing he's left-handed. Multiple times, the old man asks him "Who taught you?" and Silk just explained it away as "we used to fight with sticks as kids"
But the old man definitely doesn't believe him. He easily beat his strong friend, maybe needed to cheat to beat Silk, and Silk wasn't even using his dominant hand?
He's got to be hiding something.
