[shakes his head]

There is nothing I want to do.

[ Considers. ]

Nothing you can do or nothing you want to do?

There is nothing for me to do, Sir. This is my place.

. . .

That's not altogether true. You're more than capable of creating your own doings, eve in a place like this.

Why?

It will never be satisfying to limit yourself to nothing.

I do not exist for my own satisfaction, Sir.

There was a time I thought the same. I'm just the third son, after all.

I am merely a servant.

A servant still has ambitions and thoughts of their own.

I do not.

You do. Rather you embrace them or not they're there rather or not you do anything about them.

My only wish is to serve the Guild.

There's many ways to achieve that. There's no reason to limit yourself.

I do not believe I am limiting myself, Sir.

If you can say such things as "I am merely a servant," then you are.

. . . is there something I can do for you?

Hm. Well, so long as you think on that...

Is there a room you'd consider 'best'?

. . . they are all dangerous.

[in a way]

Everything can be dangerous, that's hardly a surprise.

Aah...
