“
I am responsible for the things I do, and I have very likely unleashed a new monster on the humans that live outside the gates of the school, so I need to clean up this mess. Look, I've been searching for things outside the ordinary. Sandstorms, locusts, scorpions and then all of a sudden, this attack that happened to you. Dorian, these are mini plagues.
