[color=0076a3][h3][center]~~Seleth~~[/center][/h3][/color] [@PaulHaynek] [hr] Seleth listened to the words of Athos, expression growing more serious with each passing word. It was a story she was quite well aware of. Child pressured into doing something the parents wanted, despite perhaps wanting to do something else. She had a similar story herself - though in her case she decided that she would take up the mantle. Trying to constantly live up to her family name was difficult. For her, it instilled a since of pride. A sense that she was better than everyone. For a time she did truly believe that, while she was attending the academy, even when she was constantly second guessing herself. [color=0076a3]"...you're a fool, Athos."[/color] Seleth replied simply. [color=0076a3]"But there is little to be done about it now. You are correct, with the ceremony coming up I doubt I'll have time to investigate or even try to find Varjan."[/color] She leaned back in the chair. [color=0076a3]"...Lord Athos."[/color] She fixed the older mage with a slightly concerned gaze. Perhaps she should mention what the Lot knight had told her. ...No, that would be silly. [color=0076a3]"...Mhm, nevermind."[/color] Seleth narrowed her eyes at him. [color=0076a3]"If I am able, I shall clean up this mess you made with my own two hands. Is that all, Or was there something else you wish to confess aside from your foolishness?"[/color]
