"Why, because you're a commoner? Hardly... See, I suffer from this thing called a brain. I haven't killed so many brain cells that it's retired. There's precedent, at least for Dougals. Say some form of craft exists. Smithing or the like. Well, House Dougal doesn't much care if you're sidhe, nocker, boggan or have a fuzzy tail. They care you can smith. Or Thread a needle. Or work jewelry.. or whatever. How the hell can we not adapt the same attitude towards the arts. It's what you craft with the magic, the work you put it to, that matters. Does it hurt sidhe power to lose a monopoly? Sure.. but power isn't the point, Making sure the craft thrives, that this Art doesn't DIE, is what matters. We lose the magic, we all suffer, the Dreaming is less or at least lost a bit to us... that's the true crime, Breeze, to be so afraid of losing power that you'd let knowledge be lost. It's a betrayal of the soul of the Escheat.. if not it's fancy wording"
