The soft tapping of shoes was the only alert that the Headmaster gave as he walked towards the Hall of Healers. He had accessed his wards and to his pleasure found that the two people he'd thought to replace Miateae had in fact gone to visit her. Or join her, as the matter presented himself. Still, he would inspect Adam's condition for himself, and if he found it acceptable, he would ask him to do the opening rites. 

He knocked on the door to the Hall, and a second later it was cracked opened by a short nurse with mousy-brown hair. "Yes?"

"Hello there, Karin, I hope you don't mind my intruding?"

"Of course not Sir!" she squeaked, quickly opening the door in full. "Right this way."

Render looked around the room until he found the young man he was looking for. "Ah, Adam, what a coincidence," he said. "I was just on the way here to visit dear Miateae, but as it happened I've also been searching for you," he said, giving the young man a short nod in greeting.
