On the day of graduation, You wake up rather early. Seraphine appears behind You, a sad smile on her face.
Seraphine: This is it... This is one of the last times we're going to be able to see your students. They're finally ready to go out and make their own world.
You nod sadly and start to walk up to the audience chamber. When You arrive, You see Aisa and Cordelia standing with the three house leaders. No other people are present.
Aisa: Today is the day.
Cordelia: All of our kids are going to be heading out and graduating soon... How incredible.
Eli: It's finally arrived...
Chris: This year went by so fast... I'm going to miss this place.
Magnolia: I've really grown a lot here. I hope I can take that growth and utilize it when I become the queen of Faerghus.
Raithius: It's unfortunate that we're going while Malice is still out there, but... I still think we've done a lot this year.
Aisa: Professor, the time has come for you to choose your own path. The future is yours to make.
Cordelia: Any one of us would be happy to have you as part of our company.
Chris: We know that you'll make the choice that's right for you.
Eli: You've come rather far, and we're all proud.
Magnolia: We won't judge you at all. Promise.
Raithius: So, Professor... What will it be?
You look at all of their expectant, waiting faces. In the end, your gaze lingers on Raithius, and You realize that You wish to be with the Golden Deer. You voice this, confirming your allegiance when asked.
Raithius: Welcome to the forces of Leicester, Professor. We're glad to have you.
Aisa: The graduation ceremony will be starting soon. We should go and get ready.
Cordelia: I agree. We don't want to keep those kids waiting for too long.
Eli: I'm practically buzzing with anticipation!
Magnolia: The future is here already... How incredible.
Chris: It doesn't even feel real...
You walk out of the audience chamber alongside Raithius, leaving the other four behind to talk to each other.
Raithius: Professor, when we get back to Leicester, I'm going to do all I can to give you a high-ranking place among my forces. After all you've done for me, it's only fair that I reward such with high praise.
You thank him for such but say that You truly don't need much.
Raithius: Oh, you aren't getting off that easily. I know what you're going to get, and you're going to have to deal with it. Understood?
You nod hesitantly.
Raithius: I'm glad we understand one another. Now, we should go and get ready for the graduation ceremony. You're going to be sitting with the Golden Deer. I don't think we'll have time to officially explain to them that you'll be coming along with us, but I bet they'll get the picture when they see you around.
You agree.
Raithius: Anyways, let's get to it. It's good to have you with me, Professor.
