[Skulduggery points it out casually, like no big deal has to be made out of it. If the magic is as discerning as he's been led to believe - well, then there has to be a reason each individual is taken. And if that's the case, then that reason wouldn't have anything to do with magic or ability to fight. It would have more to do with potential, with attitude, with willingness to fight.]
