For the next half hour, she meticulously recounted the events of the past few weeks, starting with Gideon's meeting with Rhododendron, continuing with the chaos that unfolded at the festival, and ending with the accusations leveled against her in Caladium's letter (but without listing the insults).
"First and foremost, I need to get my students back. If they are unhappy with something – and I suspect there are many such things – they can say so directly and, if they wish, leave the school through official channels. I will not hold them back; it is their right. Until that is done, all of Caladium's talk about 'protection' is meaningless, and I have no reason to trust him. The simple fact is that the students disappeared without explanation after the mass turmoil and deaths orchestrated by your sons. Until there is direct information about the missing students, they can be considered kidnapped.
Secondly, someone must answer for these deaths. Specifically, the organizers. I believe that for an ordinary person, such actions should be punishable by the highest penalty, but I cannot demand this for your stepchildren. At the very least, because they are close to Levia, and I don't want to upset her, and at most, because they are not ordinary people. But they still organized an attack in a place where innocent people gathered, on the territory of my school. I will never forgive them for this. If I were their mother, I would beat them with a belt until they couldn't sit down for a week.
And thirdly, it turns out that I am being considered a witch who has seized some power, is planning evil deeds, and even killed one of the students. Those two fools even had the audacity to make some kind of open move, and how many more are hiding in the shadows, ready to strike at the school again at any moment? It's time to dispel these misunderstandings within the family. I don't know how, but it must be done. And preferably in a way that doesn't lead to a bloody feud, understand? I didn't care what people said about me personally, as long as it didn't affect my students. In recent months, I have only been trying to sort out the mess left behind by you, Carvia, and Mandragora, to stabilize and smooth things over, but I am tired of maneuvering. With each new incident, I ask myself the same question: why don't I reveal the true nature of what happened at the school to the children, then submit all the necessary resignation papers, and tear NAILS apart brick by brick?"
