"I would be more concerned if you didn't. Exhaustion is a tough battle to fight but sometimes a good meal helps provide just the right reinforcements to fight it off at least until next time" Helga added with a soft grin. "I do insist you let me know before you leave to return home so I can fix you up something to take with you on the road. It won't be as heavy as all this was but it should get you home and then a few miles extra if you decide not to stop."
She glanced ahead as they approached the door to the main corridor. Unable not to, Helga nipped at the corner of her lip for a moment. If only there was a way to convince Maximus to come stay here as well, they could find him something to do and in the meantime give him something to take his mind off the battles and losses, recover if only just enough to feel a spark or two of life back into his tired state. Surely with enough time here she could have him comfortable and happy nearly as good as Godric with her food alone but the atmosphere as well would do him some good. Memories, the painful and heart deep ones often hung to places like home, so moving out of that sometimes did far more good than the comfort of a familiar place could. Of that she could personally recommend.
"I'm glad what you've had to see so far has been enough to convince you that your sister would be perfect for our school. Though I'm sure Godric will be showing you a bit more to help sway the matter in your favor with your father" Helga said, pausing by the open doors and turning to look at Maximus with her hands gently folded in front of her. She could see Godric just a few steps away, waiting as he mentioned to continue the school tour. Maybe thats what else she could do besides prepare Maximus's room for the night, think of some way to convince him to come stay at the school as well. Tending to the grounds was of course an idea and no doubt Godric would be showing him all the various places outside on the grounds. If not there was still plenty of positions he could be assigned and with quite a few staff quarters open he had a place to stay while he was here if he didn't want separate quarters. She had all the pieces so it would just come down to coming up with a good argument to give him before he had to return home.
"I will part ways with you here for now Sir Raine so I can see about your lodging while your here and meet back up with the two of you when I've finished. Godric, be sure you don't tire the poor man out with to big of a tour now. The grounds while containing your favorite subjects are quite large, I would hate to have to come collect the both of you after you've exhausted yourselves out to much to make it back" She said, glancing at Godric for a moment then back to Maximus smiling warmly.
