Ty: "You see, Maester Martin has graced his sweeping history of the Seven Kingdoms with several new pages."
Martin: "What lies! I wrote an entire chapter this week!"
Ty: "I stand corrected, I have not been fair to your tireless quill... Please forgive me. So when can we hope to see your completed masterpiece?"
Martin: "I already told you. Next year!"
Ty: "He says that every year..."
Alester: "I was unaware that you were embarking on such a lofty work, Maester Martin."
