"The outside is surprisingly spaceous, even if your house is already very wide in size. Have you ever thought of building other foundations outside of the garden?"
"The garden was smaller before I was born, the chapel had to be reduced in size since my dad wanted me to go outside more often when he was traveling. Seeing all the different colors helped me calm down when I was a child, but now that I dont have much use for it anymore, they've been thinking of making a guest house for visitors."
"What an amusing family balance. Religion, Business, and Chivalry. All three pillars of our society, neatly represented by the members of the Santana family... Even when classes divide us, there are a lot of options to take in one's life. It really seems to be impossible to live the same life twice, or two completely substitute one's place." Griffith ponders on your current bearings after walking around the house, taking a stop at the dining table where the servants were preparing your dinner.
"I managed to talk with your parents before you arrived. They really seem to be doing better than ever after our victory. I bet seeing you come to your own must have been the highlight of their lives, even if it's not the same field of work they have."
"I only have their patience to thank for. I was a big brat for most of my teenage years, mostly from lack of communication, but now that I found something to strive for, it's been turning my whole life around in more ways than one."
"Is that so...? Griffith helps himself to a glass of water left on the dining hall. "And what do you plan to do when you become a knight? Are you doing it for the prestige, or do you have a particular mission in mind? Perhaps the title should give you some status to elevate your name to an even higher plane than your parents, but what do you plan to do after that?"
>I'd like to travel around, get to know the world for a bit.>Sit back and relax. The title alone should let me live comfortable so long as I do my job.>Investing in my mother's marketplace could be useful for the kingdom.>I would like to establish a better relationship between Vritannis and the Holy See with the Santana family.>Have you heard of the Silver Eyed Occultist Merlina? I think taking her down would ease the king's worries on witchcraft.
