He was relieved to find out that she agreed with him about babying the students. True, they needed care when they were injured or people would stop sending their children. There was simply a difference between toughening people up and neglect. He looked forward to the first, hoping he never crossed the line of the second. Hopefully his own experience would help him walk that line.

As Astrid switched gears to tell him the story about how she came to the school, he realized that he probably should have known this story before now. After all, she was a member of the staff. He should know how every single one of them had come to be where they were. Merrick and Gwen he knew, of course, since he was the one that had brought them in.

There was more than just them at the school and it was important to know the background of his staff so that he knew what to expect from them. History made a person. It sounded like she was a devoted daughter and sister, the maternal sort that would make her good for dealing with the younger children. Godric was surprised to hear that she had siblings that were that much younger than she was. Then again, he didn't actually know how old she was. He'd thought she was the same age as Gwen but maybe he'd misjudged?

Of course, if her mother had remarried or her father had, there was always the chance for a second stage of family. Her devotion to her siblings was admirable, though he couldn't fault the siblings for wanting her to use her gifts to the fullness of her ability. Best to see your family fulfilled in a way that would make them happy. It was why Gwen was here at the school.

At least he now knew why her siblings were not at school. While he still didn't like it, wishing that her siblings didn't have to worry about caring for their younger siblings at the sake of their education, it was inevitable. Someone had to be there for the little ones and while it would be easy enough for them to go to the nursery with Lora, Vikings were supposedly very devoted to family. With the way they had been raised, it likely seemed unimaginable for anyone but family to take care of family.

"Interesting," he noted as she wrapped up her tale. "A winding trap leading you right where Lady Ravenclaw wanted you. She always does play the long game; something to keep in mind as you work for us. What she wants, she always achieves, one way or another. Always in a good way, of course. When it comes to this school that she worked so hard to build stone by stone, she is completely devoted and determined to see it successful.

"Don't let anyone tell you that you don't deserve this job. She saw something in you that few others might and is completely confident in your abilities to serve the students." While he'd only had this little experience with her as well as the one this morning, he trusted Rowena's judgement and looked forward to seeing how all of their staff performed in the (hopefully) years to come.
