After being many leagues away from home for over a fortnight, I had forgotten about the excitement of ye old reddit gift exchange. I arrived at my homestead after my journey, weary eyed and trodden, and began the routine sifting through the pile of numerous messages from across the Realm that were received in my stead. A Maesters job is not always glamorous. Requests for debts to be paid, feeble attempts at getting me to purchase things, and the occasional letter penned from the family afar were amongst the contents.

However, one package caught my attention. This one was different...it had minimal exterior markings, and was sent from a keep that I was unfamiliar with. Excited, I tore it open, revealing a roll of bubbly plastic. Content as I was to pop the bubbles all eve, I was eager to find out what they were protecting. Upon unrolling the protectant, I leaped for joy as a bronzed Hand of the King Pin fell in to my hand!

I reached back for the package to see what King was bestowing this honor upon me. This King was different...he was from a foreign land. The scribblings on the package were in French, and the origin stamped as the land of Canada! I proudly affixed the Pin to my shirt, and puffed out my chest with honor. I hereby accept your position, King Vince of Canada! Many many thanks for your glorious gift!

P.S. My cat tried to steal it and play with it as if it were some toy...apparently she likes it as well!
