Woo! Finally talking about the legal custody issue. I was wondering how this family would be able to handle it since there doesn't seem to be evidence of wrongdoing on hand and they indeed have a daughter of another house that vanished from their care under "mysterious circumstances".
Yeah, I doubt Leslie's magic will go wild. It's less like magic she conjures and more like a familiar that's a giant shadow made from the souls of dead children.
...I don't think the magic will go wild unless the Spearados are involved.
Weirdly enough, I'm more hyped for the Duchess sharing what she's about to learn here and everyone raging out on Leslie's behalf. Friends, family, servants, readers...everyone loves Leslie, and the outrage will be amazing.
