"Back then?", he repeated, thinking back. "Back then I don't suppose I had one. Well not one of my own at least. I'd been training to be a knight since before I could walk; I would stay in Puerto Valor, and follow in my papi's footsteps. It wasn't what I wanted, really, but I thought I might... grow into it you know?"
"But then one day, a few years later, the circus came to town! It was so, so fabulous! I can't even describe it; it was... love at first sight. I knew from the moment I walked into that tend that I'd found my calling; getting up on that stage and making people happy? That's the life for me. And though I may regret how my papi and I parted ways, I've never regretted my choice to go into show business. It's just so wonderful, bringing people joy and seeing their faces light up with smiles, you know darling?"
