    The jesters that immediately come to mind for me are Wit from Storm light Archive, and then The Fool from Farseer, and each of them had the freedom to do whatever they wanted. It seemed like a nice gig, but you got a earn it.

      They’re both extremely independent and accomplished human beings, if I had two name two inspirations from books it would be those two.

      I love the relationship/kinship between The Fool and Fitz in the Farseer trilogy ! Would totally drink that apricot liquor with them ahaha
