Leaving the two younger people in the lab staring at him in awe, Cassian made his way back to Lady Katherine's room, still feeling a bit shocked himself.
"My lady, why were they so surprised?" he asked, the confusion evident in his voice.
Katherine, already guessing what he meant, smiled knowingly. "Like I said yesterday, Cassian, you're a genius. You're wasting your talent being a burden when you could become one of the most intelligent and strongest mages."
Cassian sighed, knowing his lady wouldn't let go of her ambition to turn him into a mage. "I think we've already talked about this, my lady..."
Katherine, looking a bit annoyed at his dismissal, didn't let it bother her for long. She smiled again and explained, "They were shocked because it's nearly impossible to become a Circle Warrior at your age."
