“Yes. If there are those, human or faerie, who need a safe place… this city will be open to them. Velaris has been closed off for so long—too long, perhaps. Adding new people, from different places, different histories and cultures… I do not see how that could be a bad thing. The transition might be more complex than we anticipate, but… yes. The gates to this city will be open for those who need its protection. To any who can make it here.”
