Ah. There you are. I apologize for calling you in so suddenly. Please, sit.

Byleth, Seteth enter the scene
link
Seteth
volume_up

There is a matter I would like to discuss with you.
link
Seteth
volume_up

I believe I've told you this before, but it is my responsibility to aid the archbishop in all her duties.
link
What are these duties?
link
Seteth
volume_up

Spiritual instruction, ceremony oversight, donation management—all of the church's many administrative tasks.
link
Seteth
volume_up

I oversee not only the priesthood, but also the Knights of Seiros and the Officers Academy.
link
Seteth
volume_up

The archbishop entrusts a great deal to my discretion, and I am honored by her confidence.
link
Seteth
volume_up

Even when she must make decisions herself, she often seeks my counsel in advance.
link
Seteth
volume_up

And yet...
link
Seteth
volume_up

Your appointment to a teaching position at the Officers Academy was a complete surprise to me.
link
Seteth
volume_up

Not only that, but you have also been entrusted with the Sword of the Creator. I was as surprised as anyone else to learn that.
link
Seteth
volume_up

And now—well, I will spare you my conjecture.
link
Seteth
volume_up

In any case, it is time I learned more about you.
link
Seteth
volume_up

I ask only that you answer my questions honestly. I will be most grateful for your cooperation.
link
Seteth
volume_up

Not only that, but you have also been entrusted with the Sword of the Creator. I was as surprised as anyone else to learn that.
link
Seteth
volume_up

Frankly, I am just not sure how to handle you.
link
Seteth
volume_up

I am the archbishop's right hand, and yet when it comes to you, I have been told almost nothing.
link
You don't trust me.
link
Seteth
volume_up

Not quite. I do find you to be a trustworthy individual. But my subjective opinion is not enough.
link
Seteth
volume_up

I have a duty to be cautious. Should the archbishop's trust in you prove to be misplaced, it is the faithful who will suffer most.
link
Seteth
volume_up

Not only that, but you have also been entrusted with the Sword of the Creator. Frankly, that decision baffles me.
link
Seteth
volume_up

You should be fully investigated, at a minimum, before being trusted with such a responsibility. But no such investigation has been conducted.
link
Seteth
volume_up

I know you are skilled in war, and in matters of strategy, but beyond that I know next to nothing about you.
link
You don't trust me.
link
Seteth
volume_up

That is indeed what it comes down to, if I'm being honest. Please understand that I mean no offense.
link
Seteth
volume_up

First, I would like to know just how much you know about yourself.
link
Seteth
volume_up

You are the child of Jeralt Eisner, correct?
link
Seteth
volume_up

That's quite a vague reply for such a basic question. In the future, I would advise you to answer such queries with confidence.
link
Seteth
volume_up

As the former captain of the Knights of Seiros, Jeralt was renowned throughout Fódlan.

link
Seteth

If you really are his child, then no one would voice any complaint about you joining the knights.
link
Seteth
volume_up

How long has it been since you became a mercenary?
link
Seteth
volume_up

Given your youth, that hardly seems likely.
link
Seteth
volume_up

I see. Most curious.
link
Seteth
volume_up

Come to think of it, I have never asked your age. Just how old are you, exactly?
link
Well, um...
link
Seteth
volume_up

Your face says it all. You truly don't know, do you? Just what was Jeralt thinking raising you this way?
link
Seteth
volume_up

Given your responses thus far, I feel as though any further questions would just be a waste of our time.
link
Seteth
volume_up

However, permit me to make one thing clear.
link
Seteth
volume_up

Whatever her reasons, the archbishop has placed great faith in you.
link
Seteth
volume_up

Do not betray that trust. That is all.
