If one were to open up the Most
Complete and Exhaustive
Dictionary of All Words as
Vetted by House Sivis, Vol. VI,
Pt. II in the Library of
Korranberg, one would find Lars’ name as one of the entries for
the definition of ‘under-achiever’. His entire professional life, Lars
has been a deck swab. So much so that many of his colleagues
believe ‘Swabby’ to be his real and actual name.
Lars served in the Brelish navy once upon a time. He retains a
military style of communication (‘yes, sir’). When the war ended
and the navy was downscaled, Lars was honourably discharged.
