“Cordelia, A blade of Wayland the Smith is a great gift, but it is also a great responsibility. One that may one day cause you sorrow.”

Cordelia nodded. She was sure her father was right. Still, gazing down at Cortana, she couldn’t imagine ever being anything but happy with it.

[cordelia carstairs bot @cordeliaquotes]

[cordelia carstairs bot @cordeliaquotes]

She hoped James was able to dismiss their words, to see that he was no more a child of demons than Lucie, or Tessa, or Magnus Bane.

“James—left,” Cordelia said, in shock.

“No need to explain about Herondale,” said Alastair, with an unpleasant smile. “I imagine this happens to him fairly often.”

Cordelia stepped on his foot.

“It was amazing the way you charged at that demon, absolutely capital,” said Christopher. “I really thought you had him in your sights, until you fell into the river, that is.”

“Yes,” said Cordelia. “I was under the same misapprehension myself.”

She craned her head back to look up at him. “How do you know the antidote works?”

Alastair grinned in the dark. “I have faith in Thomas.”

“You do?” said Cordelia. “I didn’t think you even knew him that well.”
