"Nothing much. I'm just going to take him as my disciple." Queen Sonja replied with a carefree tone.

These words sparked a sharp intake of breath from Celia. 'Are you kidding me! You! Take a disciple! He'd be better off if he were dead!' Celia thought although she would never dare to say it aloud. Instead, she opted for a more tactful approach.

"Indeed, he is. He has talent, and although he is rough around the edges, I believe in time, he may even become a Hexlord like myself." Sonja replied with a smile while nodding her head. As though she were proud of a pupils achievement.
