Xandrax did not take it. He said with a smile, "Mom, I have some with me now. Plus, the school will pay for food and lodging. All of it is included in the registration fee."

Her son would be out for an unknown period alone. He would be helpless if he had no money with him.
Leonora was not detached from society. She had heard many laments about the amount of money they had spent priming their kids for the martial sciences exams.

They had been the exception; they had merely spent some sixty to seventy thousand Credits since the day Xandrax decided to pursue a career as a Martial Fighter.
