He admits he does not know much about the rest of the family. Weaver had met Neron at the same time as Zariah, the Warden doing more work for the school than it’s own Archmage had bothered to do. She didn’t know anything else about him, but still, it put him up at least a small notch in Weaver’s book.
In the end though, he says what she had not, but what they were clearly both thinking. ”I admit, I hope it does not come to that. For all that the portals have given us, some selfish part of me longs to go back to the days of them being closed, to the rest of Caido being nothing but a fairy tale. Days when I did not concern myself with women like Zariah and her army of mages. Though hopefully not all will be easily brainwashed.”
Weaver would not be, and she was enrolled in the school. She wanted to learn, wanted to be trained by the very woman she knew she may be training to defend Halo against. The rest of the family, so far as she knew, seemed to have good intentions. Though to be fair, Zariah too seemed to have good intentions so far. It is only that Weaver knows more of Zariah and her legacy than she does of the others, and so can see how those intentions might not be so pure. ”Caido has seen enough war.” Yet they could not help themselves, could they?
