Clary Quote by Cassandra Clare
““This one looked like a set of overlapping circles. “What’s that supposed to do?” “It’ll hide you,” he said. “Temporarily.” He slid the thing Clary had thought was a knife back into his belt. It was a long, luminous cylinder, as thick around as an index finger and tapering to a point. “My stele,” he said.””
