14

Sire, I fly to join your court in the spring, a season out from my hundredth birthday. You do me a great honor in accepting me into your army.

I know that part of it is because of your respect for my mother, but I will prove myself to you in the years to come, until you do not think of me as your first general’s son, but only as Titus.

—Letter from Titus to Archangel Alexander
