"The real story of the Fleece: there were these two children of Zeus, Cadmus and Europa, okay? They were about to get offered up as human sacrifices, when they prayed to Zeus to save them. So Zeus sent this magical flying ram with golden wool, which picked them up in Greece and carried them all the way to Colchis in Asia Minor. Well, actually it carried Cadmus. Europa fell off and died along the way, but that's not important. It was probably important to her."

I can't believe you did it! she exclaimed. How did you get Magnus to let Jace leave?Traded him for Alec, Clary said. Isabelle looked mildly alarmed. Not permanently?No, said Jace. Just for a few hours. Unless I don't come back, he added thoughtfully. In which case, maybe he does get to keep Alec. Think of it as a lease with an option to buy. Isabelle looked dubious. Mom and Dad won't be pleased if they find out. That you freed a possible criminal by trading away your brother to a warlock who looks like a gay Sonic the Hedgehog and dresses like the Child Catcher from Chitty Chitty Bang Bang? Simon inquired.
