“I see.” I studied him, thoughtfully. It was hard to think clearly - too much had happened -but I thought I knew what he wanted. Callam. Of course he wanted Callam. And the only reason we were having this chat was because he thought Callam wouldn’t stay unless I stayed, too. “You want Callam.”

“Yes.” Uncle Stephen didn’t try to hide it. “And I want you.”

“You were sent into country exile six years ago, as a compromise between those who believed you couldn’t be held accountable for your crimes, because you were a child, and those who wanted your head chopped off. Isolated, alone, you faced a challenge that would have defeated other, more powerful magicians. You prevailed. Since then, you have built a reasonably successful business that, if my calculations are correct, has more than earned itself out. You have also, in your role as the local magistrate, earned a reputation as a fair judge. I do not believe there has been a single complaint about your conduct. The only real complaint made about you is your youth and, quite frankly, everyone was young once.”
