"The source fled her in a moment, for she was no longer authorized to hold it"

For a start, authorised is spelt with an s, and for a second, this is one of the more blatant twenty first centuryisms in the book.


Just to explain, it's actually spelled with a 'z' in the States. Like the words color, gray and judgment...we spell things oddly sometimes. But I completely agree the expression is way too modern for the series.
