It’s complicated, that’s all. As I mentioned before, mage society tends to put a higher value on people with the right backgrounds and lineages. My family only just got into magic when my grandmother learned from someone, so we’re like… Really new to it. So, if the current thoughts on it are to be believed, I’m not going to amount to much.

So we should just… avoid it.
