Marek shuffles the papers away under his arm and looks up at his dad with a guilty expression.

Kennari: Today.
Sinoch: But- you’ve only been training her for a few months, right?
Kennari: Well, I’d say more than a few, but yes. In that time she’s gotten a grasp on mathematics and logic. She was somewhat literate before, and now she reads at a higher level than Illvirki.
Sinoch: But... what, eight months? At the age of ten?
Kennari: What can I say? She makes Durena look slow.
Sinoch: I see. If she truly is like Durena, or gods forbid quicker than her, just be certain you don’t make the same mistake I made.
Kennari: …What?
Sinoch: Graduating her early was a curse. She’s doing well now, but for years that woman was a deer in the hyena’s den. She still holds it against me, casting her out like that, and justifiably so. That girl, Reese… She may be quick to learn witchcraft, but growing up takes time. Don’t rush her on that.
