College is a joke rich people are too stupid to get. You learned the harsh truths of life by experiencing it on the sea and at the end of a blade. Your talent for navigating social situations is matched by your talent for navigating the battlefield, but only a fool would mistake you for some common minstrel, or play-actor. You've taken performance to its heights, into the realm of failure and death being synonymous. And you will not sing of the deeds of others, you will inspire others to sing of your deeds. You value loyalty above any treasure, but far above loyalty, you hold freedom.
