{{quote
| Rysn discussing her babsk{{book ref|sa1|i|4}}
}}
'''Babsk''' (plural ''babsk''{{book ref|sa1|i|4}}) is a term for a teacher or master in [[Thaylenah]]. Legally, a babsk is father to their apprentices as long as the apprenticeship lasts. Their apprentices follow them around, assisting them with their trade, and learning from them. [[Vstim]], [[Rysn]]'s babsk, is kind to her and wants to teach her how to be a good merchant, but not all babsk are, and this may not be common behavior.{{book ref|sa1|i|4}} Rysn's full name appears to be Rysn Ftori bah-Vstim; it is unclear whether this is a personal sign of respect or if all Thaylen apprentice merchants append their babsk's name.
== Known
* Vstim is also [[Talik]]'s babsk before he is Rysn's; Talik attains the title of trademaster with him before moving to the Reshi Isles.{{book ref|sa2|i|3}}
* [[Iyatil]] is [[Mraize]]'s babsk and master. Both are members of the [[Ghostbloods]].{{book ref|sa4|9}}
