"What sort of future should I be preparing the Princess for? I mean, now that you know I can help her advance her rank to her potential in a reasonable timeframe." Karl asked, diverting the conversation again.
"What sort of potential will she even have? Perhaps she can be a Palace Officer by the time that she's a hundred. That would be fairly decent, but at best, she might get a handful of marriage offers from rural Nobles." The Crown Prince noted.
Karl shook his head. "No, she should be able to reach Mythic or at least Totem in the next century. She's half Elf, she's not stuck on a dragon's slow growth rate. Elves mature slowly, but their power levels grow pretty smoothly."
"You know: that matches Father's theory. You see, Dragons reach puberty relatively quickly. Elves reach puberty slowly. But Elves power grows faster in the years during and immediately after puberty, while a Dragons' rate of growth increases with time.
