Name	Text
Erin Solstice	Look and see. He blamed her for this, gave her credit for this even if she was not the catalyst. At this point, it was easier to say ‘Erin Solstice did it’.
Ilvriss Gemscale	There she was. Wall Lord Ilvriss stood in his apartments in Salazsar, using a crutch to hold himself upright. And there, standing on his rich carpets, looking down at the parade coming into Salazsar as the city rocked with cheers—

Erin Solstice	—was Erin Solstice.
Ilvriss Gemscale	All the staff were peeking at her as they clustered in the hallway. Ilvriss himself was chatting to her with the most normalcy in his tone.
Erin Solstice	But even he had been surprised when she appeared, for a social call, to check on him. Despite knowing she could do it—there was something intimate about Erin Solstice just appearing before you.
Ilvriss Gemscale	“I’m not the one who does it, Ilvriss. I just use them. That’s witch-stuff. But that was all your dad.”
Erin Solstice	Erin blew out her cheeks.
Ilvriss Gemscale	“Ilvriss. I thought he was you, remember? Why is it so hard to imagine that he did it all on his own?”
Ilvriss Gemscale	Because he hadn’t expected it. Because he was proud and amazed and embarrassed, and it was easier to say ‘you did it’ than to process it. Ilvriss ducked his head as Erin stared down.

Relc Grasstongue	“‘Old men in war are the scariest thing in the world.’ That’s what Relc said when he heard about it. He started talking about war stories—I have Menolit, Reynold, Grimalkin, Mirn, and a bunch of people sitting on my beach telling stories and singing. I blame you for this.”
Menolit	“‘Old men in war are the scariest thing in the world.’ That’s what Relc said when he heard about it. He started talking about war stories—I have Menolit, Reynold, Grimalkin, Mirn, and a bunch of people sitting on my beach telling stories and singing. I blame you for this.”
Reynold Ferusdam	“‘Old men in war are the scariest thing in the world.’ That’s what Relc said when he heard about it. He started talking about war stories—I have Menolit, Reynold, Grimalkin, Mirn, and a bunch of people sitting on my beach telling stories and singing. I blame you for this.”
Grimalkin Duveig	“‘Old men in war are the scariest thing in the world.’ That’s what Relc said when he heard about it. He started talking about war stories—I have Menolit, Reynold, Grimalkin, Mirn, and a bunch of people sitting on my beach telling stories and singing. I blame you for this.”

Erin Solstice	Erin turned and ignored the question.
Ilvriss Gemscale	“I blame you for it, Ilvriss. Now, are you gonna go down and congratulate your dad or stand up here and tell me how it’s ‘all my fault’?”
Ilvriss Gemscale	He turned faintly red under his scales as the staff stared at him and rumors began to circulate like a magical hurricane. There was something about how Ilvriss spoke to Erin that prompted them.
