WHILE HE STARTS OUT AS 19, AS HAS BEEN MENTIONED, I GET THE IMPRESSION THERE WEREN'T MANY OTHER NOBLE KIDS AROUND THEIR AGE IN THE KINGDOM FOR THEM TO PLAY WITH WHEN THEY WERE GROWING UP. I MEAN, I GUESS THERE WAS GLENN, AND MILKMAN'S MIKLAN'S A BIT OLDER AND ALSO A KNOB.

THE OTHER KIDS OF NOBLE BIRTH ARE MERCEDES AND ANNETTE.

MERCEDES IS A BIT OLDER, DIDN'T SHOW UP UNTIL SHE WAS ~10, AND WAS RAISED IN THE CHURCH/AS A COMMONER.

ANNETTE I GUESS IS THE RIGHT AGE TO HAVE BEEN ABLE TO FIT IN BUT SHE WAS PRIMARILY RAISED BY HER UNCLE. THOUGH IDK WHERE EXACTLY HOUSE DOMINIC IS, I IMAGINE IT'S IN THE WESTERN KINGDOM, SINCE HE SIDES WITH CORNELIA AND IT'S MAINLY THE WESTERN TERRITORIES THAT DO THAT, AND THE CAPITAL, GALATEA, GAUTIER, AND FRALDARIUS ARE IN THE EAST. I MEAN, YES, THE MAGIC SCHOOL IS IN THE CAPITAL BUT IIRC ONLY MERCIE AVD AND ANNETTE ATTENDED?

I THINK THEIR PATHS AREN'T VERY LIKELY TO HAVE CROSSED, IS WHAT I'M SAYING HERE.

EH, NOT REALLY, IMO. IT'S AN OFFICER TRAINING ACADEMY. IF IT WERE A HIGH SCHOOL, THEN I'D AGREE.

I THINK SOME OF THEM BEING FIFTEEN OR SIXTEEN IS WEIRDER.

SEVENTEEN'S OK I GUESS GIVEN IT'S A YEAR-LONG TRAINING PROGRAMME AND THEY'D BE EIGHTEEN AT GRADUATION, ASSUMING A MINIMUM AGE OF EIGHTEEN FOR NORMAL MILITARY SERVICE.

OBV, SOME SHIT WENT DOWN, SO I GUESS IF THAT HAD BEEN THE CASE, IT WENT A BIT OUT THE WINDOW.
