“I assure you my sister and I are both just fine,” Anthony wrote to a cousin. “Uncle Vestalus may be distant, but he sees that we’re looked after and has even sponsored my training. Cassie swears she’ll follow in my footsteps. She wants the two of us to hunt dragons as a pair, and even thought she’s so much younger, I don’t doubt she’ll catch up. I know you joke about her ‘playing with swords,’ but what else is she supposed to do in the necropolis? Have tea parties with corpses? She has no one her own age to associate with. Uncle rarely takes us out. At best she has Nomi to keep her busy at the chantry, But that can’t be her entire life.”
