Were you summoned to Court this afternoon? I was! It must mean that they've made their recommendations for the Council, mustn't it? Do you think everyone's been summoned or just the top few?
I've been getting ready all day. I imagine it's less of a bother for you, being a boy and all, and besides I'm sure you've been to Court loads of times but I haven't been and I just want to present myself really well, you know?
But I'm also really nervous. I mean, just being summoned doesn't necessarily mean anything, does it? It could easily be all the challengers and they're going to thank us for our dedication and ask us to stay and watch whomever gets chosen take the Mark. Or it could be the top five, maybe, and then Our Lord will make His choice out of everyone who's got this far.
So I don't want to get too hopeful about it.
It's really exciting, though. Oh, please tell me you were also invited! I'll be ever so relieved if we're both going.
Oh, but you might be getting ready, too, I guess, so if I don't hear from you I'll just hope to see you there! (And if you weren't...well, it's not fair if you weren't but I'll tell you all about it later.)

And French-Finkley's already sucking up, I notice. I guess that's something we'll be getting used to.
I could get used to it, mind.
