And your Peter Pan advice
You have no scars on your face
And you cannot handle

Correcto about the lamented and disappeared form Lady North Hollow...

Yours is Houseman? not the commander that is RIP in SVW but the idiot that Honor belted across the chops in HotQ?

Yep, the clue was "peter pan advice", given his poor grasp of reality in that book (especially when he was talking to the Graysons...).

I'll tkae all the credits I can get lol. The song did seem a bit too much for him, though the way I remember his entrance it fit well.

No. That's not it. But it sure is a top notch edumicated guess. Wish I'd thought of it. I can't give you the points, but we'll invite you back to appear on another episode.
