In Westseaxna rīce, born and raised,

near Bath is where I farmed most of my days.

Tilling is taxing, but relaxing's for fools,

and winter is coming and the air is getting cool,

when a courier comes upon his high horse,

his face was weathered and his voice was coarse.

He took one look at my farm, and gave a small snort,

and said, "I've ridden here from London to give you my report."

"A long way I've traveled to be here this day,

and as soon as I'm done I'll be quickly on my way,

but in the service of a lady I've come for a bit,

to give you this genuine handcrafted doublet."

And I'll spare you the rest. I've heard that they stone unskilled bards in some places.

I'm truly in awe. My match sent me a few intriguing questions at first, leaving me to wonder. A few weeks later, I received no less than eight emails from Steam informing me that DLC for my favorite game, Crusader Kings, had rained down like manna from Heaven. This was more than fantastic (especially as the default CK2 portraits were so ugly, and the Celtic Faces pack is so awesome), but there was more to come!

For the past few days, I've been away from home, leaving me to watch eagerly as my package made its way across several states to me. Of course, when I got back, the front office (college life!) was closed, and I had to wait yet another day to have my curiosity finally resolved.

What I found was far and above anything I had expected. A lovely forest green doublet, made "to "compliment the color of [my] eyes" (probably the only thing in the world to have ever done so).

All this rambling is really meant to cover up the fact that I'm utterly speechless. /u/RufflesMe, I can't thank you enough! Thank you so much for this amazing piece of clothing. It feels so cool just having something like this, and I hope to soon collect more of its kind to go along with it.
