"There's options. If nothing else, the Gabriel School in Velora, maybe one of the oracles when he's older, but there's only one of him and I think there will be room somewhere in the Eyrie for one little boy if I look," says Isabella gratefully. "What are you going to do?"

If he escalates - then we can also escalate. What about your mother?" she asks, addressing the boys. "Is she also at fault? Is she safe herself?"
