Trust their kin? My, the prospect of that was... interesting. Toshiko's own family had once attempted to murder her, simply because she rejected what she saw as a fool's errand. Even now, as her sister's efforts had cooled their rage, they still sought to punish her for what they saw as a betrayal. Even her sister thought she needed some kind of punishment... and for what? It wasn't as if she was the one who had been cheated out of learning ancient magic from the time of Babylon. It wasn't as if she was the one who continued to believe in an impossibility.
