Ivy laughs. "It's just their way, but I can't understand it! Why would anyone not want to fly? Chex Centaur is one of the smartest, brightest, best, most kindest people I know! But just because she has wings, even her grandmare Cherie wouldn't listen to her!" A huff. "They're always correcting people too, but I think that's their job. They love teaching." And she loved teasing them. "Not all centaurs are like that, obviously. Arnolde Centaur was a Magician who even became King of Xanth! Grandmother Iris didn't much like centaurs until him, but he made her the next King, so she changed her mind real good then," a small laugh.
"What kind of magic do you do? Can we really skip out on classes like that? If I tried it at the Castle, all the rocks would tattle on me, and the centaurs would find me anyway. It's hard to hide there. I did it once for days and days, but Stanley's getting too big for most of our hiding spots. He's my dragon friend. And it probably wouldn't be fun without him." Yeah, Ivy's life is a bit weird.
