Hey, Teach. I see you're as stony-faced as usual.

Claude

Hmm. I can't tell if you're feeling resigned or if you're just lost in thought. Or maybe you simply don't care about anything that's going on.

Oh... Sorry. I really didn't mean to be rude. I just find you fascinating.

Claude

Actually, there's something I'd like to talk to you about. Can you spare some time?
link
Claude

That's just the sort of attitude I'd expect from a new teacher!
link
Claude

Is that right? Maybe this is news to you, but teachers are supposed to display an active interest in the well-being of their students. Students...like me.

Speaking of, before you came here, you were a mercenary, right? Always getting your hands dirty on the battlefield and whatnot?

Claude

It's a bit unusual that you suddenly decided to become a teacher one day.
link
Claude

In any case, I've been meaning to ask. Did your father teach you how to fight?
link
Claude
volume_up

I figured. Your father used to lead the knights, didn't he? And I hear he was a legendary mercenary as well.
link
Claude
volume_up

Is that so? Well, I'm sure you grew up watching his fighting style, even if he didn't teach you directly.

Claude

It must have been hard on your mother when you followed in your father's footsteps and became a mercenary too.
link
I never knew my mother.
link
Claude
volume_up

I see. I suppose you grew up moving from battlefield to battlefield with your father then.
link
Claude

You know, for someone who's right around the same age as me, you certainly have an unusual amount of composure.

Claude

I guess it's only natural that you'd be different from young nobles who grew up in the lap of luxury.
link
You don't seem like a noble either.
link
Claude
volume_up

Ha! Well, even so, I am heir to House Riegan, the leading family of the Alliance.
link
Claude

But I didn't exactly grow up in luxury like most people of noble blood.
link
Claude
volume_up

Hey, maybe that's why you and I get along so well.

Folks like us should stick together. As house leader, I'll do all I can to help you out. We can start by making time for more little chats like this.
