Mother is a hard person to please and I was a literal child who was, admittedly, going mad while using the fire, so anyone who wasn't my parents was an acceptable target. [And then even his parents were acceptable and he was just losing all ability to control it.] So the master of father's sworn brother was easy enough to go after.

And father had his reasons.

Even if things are different, what reason do you have to care than...what, making amends of an old bond you had with father? That would explain father.
