| Jun 3 at 4:41 | comment | added | Rand al'Thor♦ | Not only from those who serve them: it is (or was?) a general term used for boys too young to be called Mister. I grew up being Master [al'Thor] (or sometimes, as a joke, Daster [al'Thor] because "if the son of a Mister is a Master, then the son of a Doctor is a Daster"). | |
