Seteth catches up to you in the hallway

A few minutes after leaving the meeting room, Seteth catches up with you. His permanent frown in fine form.

"Professor! A moment." He holds up a hand. "I know that I haven't always understood why Lady Rhea trusts you in the... particular way that she does." He pauses for a moment, possibly remembering some of the things he's seen you do to her. "But I want to apologise for any times I have not trusted you. It may be hard to believe, but I was once a young man similar to yourself, and I do understand some of the... urges you display. You have certainly never done anything but serve the interests of this monastery and the students in your class."

An apology from Seteth? That was certainly unexpected. While he was undeniably fun to tease, the green-haired man did seem to have the best interests of the school and monastery at heart.

"Thank you Seteth." Is all you can think to respond.

He straightens his back, hands clasped behind himself. "Very well professor. I also have this months mission for you and your class, as assigned by Lady Rhea. There is a stretch of beach near the Rhodos Coast where a few stragglers from the Western Church have been spotted. Your class, and the knights, are tasked with rooting out any presence there. That said, we expect very resistance, so you should also treat this mission as a bit of a holiday. You will be expected to camp out on the beach for several days. Due to the blessing of Cichol, the whole region is Spring-like year-round, so it should offer a very nice opportunity for relaxation."

He coughs slightly before continuing. "Also, I will be accompanying you on this mission. The area is special to me, and lady Rhea has ordered me to spend a few days relaxing as well." He holds a hand up as your expression remains blank. "Worry not, I have no intention of getting in your way or ruining any of your planned... activities with any of the knights and students. I plan to spend most of my time fishing." He finishes and gives you a curt nod.

You return the nod in acknowledgement, and the two of you go your separate ways.

Before you can exist the monastery you hear pounding footsteps rushing towards you. It's Catherine, who almost skids to a stop as she reaches you.

"Hey, Professor. I need to go help some of the students with training, but..." she pauses for a moment, as if making a final decision. "You’re good-looking, you know that? At the same time, you look like some who was born to fight. I bet we'd get along. I'm also good-looking and born to fight, heh! Need any help with your class?"

The request comes out of nowhere. But at the same time, it makes perfect sense. You could use the help with some of the students weapons training, and having the muscular knight around for other... Activities, would be very nice. You nod your head. "That sounds great Cassandra. I'd love to have your help."

She grins and pumps her fist. "Thunderbrand and I will be there when you need us! I bet I could also convince Shamir to come along." She adds with a mischievous grin. "Anyways, we'll be helping out with your mission this month, so I'm sure we'll see plenty of each other."
