Considering that her clan only has had 31 members, and only gains one per every millennium, this could... be a problem.
She only allows one per millennium, so as to match her age. So she may get a new one to fill the numbers. Still, this is a serious blow to her pride.
@Euodiachloris: Ah, right, that makes more sense.
If in doubt (or panic), hide! Actually, come to think... Mink being squid-octopus-whatever, s/he can probably get into very small spaces.
Oh Mink, you lucky squid...thing...whatever.
Um. Well. I've lost crumbs down there. Doubt I'd fit a Mink, though.
I'd be more impressed if that was 48% alcohol but heh.
Also, Fa'lina seems to have thought everything through regarding the rumors.
Uh - that's everybody at the Academy fine... what about everybody else? Lexy might get a surprise visit from somebody. <shudders> And, she's with a dragon. How well will that go down?
I think Fa'lina's worried about Abel being attacked. He is, after all, (one of?) the last Siar cubi, and Hizell was the one who genocided the Siar clan back then.
Oh, I got that, don't worry. My mind just went on 2 steps beyond that. Anybody who finds Able, will find the rest.
Does Pyroduck even count as a dragon in terms of old clan grudges? His father disowned him as his progeny unless he proves his worth by murdering at least a hundred cubi newborn which he has clearly refused to do.
Since when has logic ever been involved in clan warfare? He's got a spade-tail and can up-size: get 'im!
If they pause long enough to work out who he is, first. Wouldn't bet on that. But, yeah. <shudders> I can all too easily imagine Falina going berserk if anybody actually harmed him (or Abel, for that matter), even with her usually epic restraint.

Well, Puroduck won't be going after anyone for reasons of old vendettas, but someone might go after him. They'd have to be willing to face the wrath of Fa'lina, though.
Never tell people how to do things. Tell them what to do and they will surprise you with their ingenuity. — George S. PattonWhy did I see that being the reason, eh?
Jyrras is doing the Gendo pose! Run for cover!
(Also, I love the parallel between what he's saying now and Mab's OMINOUS WORDS OF FORESHADOWING earlier. Which still have yet to be entirely cleared up, I think.)
GEEEEEEEENDOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOUUUUUUUUUU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hmmmm - Abel in a yukata... I think he'd go for it.
Love the Head Desk. Is Jyrras trying to annoy Abel to the point he'll spill just to get it over with?
MmmmMmmm - looks like it might be succeeding, too.

So much HNNNG-worthiness. Yes it's that cute.
And Piflack is the fat one. Chubby.
