Character-kareta Quote by Mercedes Lackey
““And don't even suggest that these would be better off in Tiercel's hands. No, Tiercel has other things to do with his life. You, on the other hand, get to protect him. And guess what that makes you?" "Stupid?" Harrier suggested. "Suicidal?" "A Knight-Mage!" the unicorn cried cheerfully.””
