"This is 'The Noble's Proper Etiquette Reference and Manual of Propriety and Action'," Maria began. "Seventh edition. It is penned and constantly updated by an unknown author–"
"It's mother," Katarina said blandly.
"–who is nevertheless recognized as an authority on proper decorum–"
"Like mother."
"– and has been the codified reference of choice for what a noble is expected to do in any particular situation," Maria said.
"Because of mother," Katarina said.
"I really don't see why you think the duchess has anything to do with this book, squire Claes," Maria said.
"There's a section on climbing trees, farming, fishing and taking baths with your younger brother," Katarina said. "So I'm pretty sure mother wrote it."
"The author of this text is a complete mystery," Maria said.
"We're only up to sixth edition," Katarina said. "The seventh hasn't been published yet. It's supposed to come out next week."
