Bren's first day as paidhi!

The contextual background infodump in the first section is clunky, but everything after that is wonderful. 23-year old Bren has so very much to learn here, and is somewhere between nervous and optimistic about it all. It's a great bit of short fiction with several moments for small laughter. Very glad I was able to get it from Closed Circle.
