Goran, Isabel, Ivar, apprenticeship, women

G oran is older than me, by almost ten years.

Goran is a journeyman, but although he runs Coraff’s smithy in the master’s absence, I cannot help but think that he is little more than apprentice.  Of course, this is an insulting thing to say, so I do not say it aloud.  But what does he do that is so much different than what I do for Kean? If Kean was away, I would be expected to fulfill his duties, just as Goran works the forge. Yet he is a journeyman and I am an apprentice.
