Parsing sage, rotating time



Andreas went to the Low Countries, naturally drawn by the promise of jenever and other methods of indulging his hedonistic ways. Indeed, what else could one expect of a man of such low character, that he failed studying Imperial Law, the basest of all doctorates? Still, he's not completely hopeless; he did, after all, pick up some latin and oratory, which is handy when you need to think up an excuse for ones excesses on the fly.

Also, for a totally uninteresting tidbit: Saint Grobian's legacy lives on in at least parts of what used to be the HRE. In Czech, the word "grobián" means a rude person and while somewhat archaic, it stuck around for at least as long as my grandmother did.

Same in Danish, except here there's an extra r, "grobrian," to make it fit better with all the other less-than-flattering personal adjectives.
