Kindle Notes & Highlights
“Felinita.” Considered by many to be one of, if not the, weakest of the six houses, but also the smartest. When they beat out a stronger house it was always through strategy.
Draconell was the best of the best. They had the most power behind their rune casting, were generally the quickest at it, too, which made them lethal in battle.
All of Opie’s relatives had been House Draconell. Add to that, the Senate who pretty much made all the rules governing magic was made up primarily of House Draconell.
“The gates have been set by Tarquinius to ensure you end up in the proper house.” “Wait . . . and we weren’t before?”

“You must never let her go to that school. They will destroy her, because she is mine. You know that.” My mother turned away from him. “You promised you wouldn’t come back. That you’d . . . never meet her. You swore it, Nic!”
If Tarquinius or anyone at Neverthorn found out Nocta was my father, I would either wind up in prison or dead.
