Tristan is not insulted by this at all - these are his values as well, his father's values. It's part of why he has to train so feverishly, to find his worth where he can. He's achingly proud of his duties to the common good, but there [i]is[/i] a greater pride in serving a worthy lord, and serving them well. King Pellinor (for now) seems worthy. 

"I hunt within my rights, and make no trespasses." This is true, as far as he knows. He's hunted deer and wolves before, but he was [i]definitely [/i]allowed to do that. Definitely. He'll double check when he gets back. "I appreciate the kindness, your King has shown us more than was expected or owed. How fair is your lord, typically?"
