A few things which happen after the matter with Ja
The arument with Dorian definitely sped up the process of realizing and accepting to have made a mistake, even though Morgan won't admit. Definitely it messed up his relationship with the grandson for the moment, for he won't forgive such lack of respect so easily.
Though, he got the necklace. He sent Artemis to pick it up from the floor where Dorian threw it.
He knows what that amulet means, in fact, he has a similar one. He too was in the Eastern Wildlands, but a different side, where he met another Ancient Dragon, the Winds one, while Dorian met the Fire one. He compares the two amulets for some time then sighs deeply. He can imagine what Dorian went to ask and as a person, and someone who was young, he can't blame him for what he did. But as a King, he can't accept what mess it ended up making; it ruined his plans for good and also caused some tension with the South. But that will be fixed.
At the same time, Doctor Robstein had to summon Jackil to tell him he has to be suspended from his job because of missing the hand. But afterwards, as he got extremely touched and saddened by this fact, he decided with the other Elder Doctors to go to the King and tell him of their own vices. Each one of them has some, because the kind of life they make can't last long if they don't find their ways to relax and put off their minds. Some have alcohol as "medicine"; some human prostitutes; others opium as well. In substance, they think to deserve the same punishment as Jack, but this makes a total different effect on Morgan. To start with, if he punished them all, there would no longer be Doctors and that can't be allowed, but it also burns much less from them, because they are not from his family. It makes him realize even more that what he did to Jack wasn't right, and not because he didn't deserve to lose his hand, but because he didn't deserve the consequences it brought, something Morgan certainly didn't think of when he was that angry. But luckily, like always, he has a solution to fix his mistakes, even though he won't reveal it yet. The whole matters gives him some idea to test the grandson.
Anyhow. In a moment in which Jackil is not there, he goes to search his and Mort's manor. Jack's room mainly. In there, he finds -well hidden in the closet- his "set of opium". It's all in a little wooden box, in which many mini doses of white dust are placed carefully. In the box there is a paper with many, many calculations: body weight, height, metabolism, enzymatic composition, blood composition, white blood cells etc. And for each result, a different weight of the dose is placed. Jackil certainly wasn't taking that stuff lightly and without the utmost careful calculation to ensure to be far below a dangerous level.
On the desk, there are many old papers and documents on it, the latest reports he wrote, a few advices to patients and such...but also a few other papers completely unrelated with the rest. An adoption request hand-written by Jack himself. In it he wrote the reasons, the advantages it'd bring to the child, the promises and so on, as for why he would like to adopt Tomiel and why he thought it'd be doable and right. The thing definitely give Morgan some thoughts.
He takes the papers and returns to the palace, where he reads everything carefully, fills his own documents and...signs the adoption request and forms, granting his official permission.
Afterwards, he takes the Dragon necklace and heads to Dorian in the dungeons. (Dorian best be respectful)

I have found out, that your brother -Jackil- has been planning to ask to adopt the young Teyss.»
/To Dorian's first words/ Which is why you are getting out of here with all of your limbs, Dorian. What you did was right, but dare to refer to me with that tone ever again and your tongue will hang from a necklace on your neck next time.
Nothing is wrong. It is his chance to prove his worth. Depending on his actions now on, he might be returned what was taken from him.»
«If he will prove to deserve. He has lost my trust and respect, he will be granted nothing until he earns it back.»
Ask, Dorian.»
