Let’s see, how many orphans did I break before I got here? Ten? Twenty? No, many more.” Salas confessed to this horrendous truth with utter calm.

conversations.value:  On and on, Claire and I continued to rain spells down on them, and Lilly continued to counter every single one. It might have looked like a stalemate, but that wasn’t the case.
