Garth Nix Quote

Greencloaks rarely retire, said Xue. I took a long leave of absence. Probably time to come back. The younger ones are not so well-trained. Well, we’ve only just started, protested Meilin. And we haven’t done too badly. We’ve gotten the Granite Ram, and even though we lost the Iron Boar, there was . . . an understandable reason for that — Xue laughed a short, high-pitched laugh. Not you! Olvan, Lenori. Always forgetting my lessons.
