Gaelen Opinion Quote by C.S. Marks
““There were those who could not imagine why Magra would even acknowledge one such as Gaelen, and they had made this opinion known. Gaelen had no difficulty dealing with them, as she was quite sure of herself and cared not for the opinions of those who judge others using only those characters visible to the eye. There were many evil souls that wore a fair semblance.””
