Darlae Gale Earonsheir Lavis Menaeon Calainn-Sidhe, Third of Her Name, declared this openly at the private dinner they were sharing with Chancellor Lumin and her associates.

"It’s not about the shields, it’s about not getting murdered!" Darlae snapped at her old mentor. "The mousekin twins blasted me off the damn cliff!"
"If you’re going to imitate your son’s teaching methods, then don’t turn your back on the Amendatory Arcanics class," Lumin quirked her lips sternly.
"Why would you let him run a class like that?" Darlae huffed.
