Clarel is a Warden, not a Circle mage. They get their hands dirty. Fiona wanted to protect her people; Clarel\'s goal is to defeat the Blight no matter what. Of course it sounds horrible and stupid when you compare those two, because they\'re completely different people with completely different goals. \
