[Gilles is always speaking French, and the Tower translates, but somehow, when he encounters someone else who is actually speaking French, it is somehow evident to him, a certain resonance when France says monsieur perhaps.]

No, I do not believe so, monsieur, but it is a pleasure. You are French as well?

[This pleases him. Jeanne is the only other person from France he's met here, as far as he knows. As France was courtly enough to bow back, Gilles continues the courtliness by providing his full name and titles.]

Je suis Gilles de Laval, sire de Rais, compagnon de Jeanne d'Arc, Maréchal de France!
