He squints at her. She was the one who started the comparison to children learning to walk, he's fairly certain, but it doesn't matter.

"I'm not presuming to be the one to teach them," he gently corrects. "That's the whole purpose of me asking other mages if they'd teach. I'm seeking to bring mages together after, yes, I did add to the division. But if more want to learn from me, I'd be glad to teach. I enjoy it. Including instructing someone who is as a daughter to me."

Not everyone likes teaching. Not everyone has to.

"I made a choice, and I'm continuing to make choices. I will, for as long as I draw breath." It's been suggested he should keep his head down and not help out, but he can't. He simply cannot stop working, and cannot stop trying. His work ethic and his conscience won't allow it. "You've made your own."
