(Rant) I really wish that Cyril didn't back down as quickly as he did when Asfour called him out.

(Really long rant post incoming)

Because if Asfour had taken his license, she would suffer from a lot more problems than Cyril would. Ignoring potential financial problems., here's a list:

--

First, she would probably have to relocate Cyril's apprentices, which would be difficult because they've spent their entire apprenticeship with Cyril and aren't going to be happy about getting a new mentor. This is more of a problem for Asfour than for Cyril because Cyril can easily stay in contact with them because he knows their parents, who seem to like Cyril. And, he's the Horn Of Dawn, he probably has some connections and can pull some strings, not to mention all the ways Runa could, and would, be able to help him (even if it's just for the sake of the apprentices).

--

Second, once the public hears about it they'll be extremely angry about it, especially if Cyril goes through the newspaper to share the news before Asfour announces it. Even though there might be a group of people who think Asfour was in the right, there will still be a large percentage of people who believe that she was wrong to do it.

If Asfour had taken Cyril's license, it would have been one of her first decisions as Grand Keeper. So, the public might see this as the power having gone to her head. Another thing that would make the public worried is the fact that there are only three people in the world who know all of Audrian's weaknesses, and Asfour just took one's license.

Audrian would be a big concern for the public, and rightfully so. With Leopold no longer being the Grand Keeper, he would be able to go into the field. However, Leopold is getting closer and closer to retirement age. What this means is that, while he is still very strong and powerful, he is getting slower and he can't keep as well with Audrian who is both on the same level as him but also much younger, which is likely why Leopold lost to Audrian at the end of TNC. Because of this, the public might lose trust in Leopold's ability to defeat Audrian.

Unlike Leopold, Cyril is around the same age as Audrian and is on the same level as Runa, in terms of athletic ability. Not only that but Cyril is known for being good at what he does, which is why he's earned so many medals. The public would likely put more faith in Cyril than they would in Leopold, especially since Leopold hasn't done much of being a Guardian since he was appointed Grand Keeper.

--

Third, as previously mentioned, Audrian. Audrian would be a big problem for Asfour because he's so dangerous, powerful, and unpredictable. She needs people who have experience fighting him, are on the same level as him, and know his weaknesses. Cyril fits in all of those boxes, but he doesn't have a license, leaving a gap in her arsenal. She could try to fill that gap with Cyril's apprentices, but that would also bring their new mentors into the line of fire. Audrian would likely target these Guardians because they don't have much experience fighting him and they don't know his weaknesses. Not to mention that we Lore has a tendency to act strangely when an apprentice is with a mentor that isn't the right fit, so the girls, minus Viola, would probably have trouble properly controlling their lore.

--

Fourth, now that Cyril doesn't have his license anymore, Asfour has no control over him. Meaning that, as long as it's not illegal, he can do anything he wants and she can't do anything about it. Cyril could probably disappear if he wanted to, and if he did Asfour would probably never be able to find him again if she changed her mind. Not to mention that Cyril could say anything he wants now. If he wanted to, Cyril could have the Keeper's Chronicle write an article claiming that Asfour didn't have the Wilderlands' best interest in mind or something else that could ruin Asfour's reputation and many people would probably believe it, especially if they believed that Asfour was in the wrong.

---

These are just some of the things that I think could hypothetically happen if Cyril had actually stood his ground a bit more and challenged the threats that Asfour was making, there might be others so I'll probably add to this at some point.

Happy Birthday, Cecily!

The Grand Three as mentors are so funny because of the things they would let you get away with: Runa would sneak you a beer, Cyril would sneak you a cookie, and Audrian would help you commit a crime.

I have a theory (that is probably answered in canon but whatever)

What if the only reason Lochmordra was there that day, when Soren killed Conley, was because of Audrian messing around and heating up the ocean and causing an increase in the weeping tide. Going along with that theory, since Audrian, I think, said that he was there every time Lochmordra surfaced, was he there when Soren killed Conley?
