You with the sad eyes

"Yes, exactly!" Bethany agreed.  She'd have to think about it some more.  Maybe she could go to Sebastian with the idea - he would probably be easy to convince and if she had his backing it would be easier to get the backing of others.  "I may look into that then," she mused.

She watched as Aria demanded some attention from her mother, and a fond smile crossed Bethany's face.  She couldn't help but be reminded once again how special it was that Lyric would get to bond with her own child, raise her herself.  The Chantry couldn't separate families like that anymore, and she hoped they'd never be able to again.  "Motherhood agrees with you," she offered.  "You know, we might have to set up a kids space around here.  Hopefully you won't be the only mage with children who ends up coming here."
