(And that is, frankly, one of the reasons why the whole situation with Sprezzatura rankles him. He won't say as much for Henry's sake, but he can't promise to be kind to her if it should ever come up.) ]
I mentioned Madigan runs a club, right? It's called the Griffonix, and it's a safe haven. Sacred ground. It's a place for women who share her Talent to live and learn to use their magic and make their own choices. The one thing the whole of magical society agrees on is simply that the Griffonix is untouchable.
