"Well, can you picture me being able to make others fear me?" That question is coupled with a quirk of her brow. "But she has such a way of cutting into people with words, and lets nothing said to her in return affect her. I want to be able to do that too. Not the fear part, but the confidence part."

"She's been a great source of lore, too. I've learned more from her than I have my Keeper." Which shouldn't be surprising when one knows how Ellana was treated as the extra mage who didn't need to learn about being a Keeper herself, because she would never be one.
