"Adam, my childhood was ..atypical, even for a changeling. I spent it between a noble hold ruled by sidhe, and here... and then I went questing at a very early age and..well, it steam rolled from there. I can teach you manners, etiquette, courtesy, even a little psychology, but just as my situation isn't typical, neither is yours. You have a hell of a handicap, if you will forgive me for calling it that. In many noble courts, you'll be seen as sort of like a talking dog might be seen in the mortal kingdoms of old. Amazing, fascinating, a true treasure... but overall still a beast that can be kicked or even killed if it gets rude. The odds of them ever seeing you as an equal are slim"
