That's so completely beastly. Completely awful. I'm really horribly sorry to hear that.
[ She hesitates. She's not really able to relate to anything so grand as that, but - ]
In my home, there are lots of people in a position similar to yours. My country is ruled by magicians, and they're awful to my people and to spirits, and so I cannot fully forgive them. But they do that because they were just taught badly. They're all apprenticed really young and starved of useful information so that they grow up ignorant and blind. So that they learn to hate and oppress because of their ignorance. And then they do the same to their own next generation of apprentices. It's horrid.
