After this response from young Justinian, Segentasse chuckled quietly, surely recalling the days when he, too, had been so insecure.
Dear Lad, don't discourage yourself like this! There is really no need for it. If Jason and Alexandros thought you are the right person to teach Markos, then let me tell you that they are surely correct.
I have great faith in you, and be sure that you will start being more secure in no time!
With an amiable pat on Justinian's back, Segentasse finished up.[/quote]
