The Dare of Dawn (Helga)

Helga folded her arms across her chest and exhaled a small quiet sigh, fully disagreeing right away with Godric's comment about the classrooms being the same and no point to really checking them out. She was quite happy with how she had arraigned the charms classroom with help from Rowena and given the herbology class was outside in the green houses and the potions was in the dungeon the rooms were certainly not all the same as her dear friend had described them.

Yet she decided to let it go, no reason to get into a debate about it in front of a guest and potential future member of staff. Helga would just disagree and if by chance they could get the approval for the girl to come here she would be sure she and Rowena gave her a proper tour of the school including the so called 'seen one seen them all' classrooms Godric was planning to just skip over.  

"You have already seen part of the garden but if your wanting to I can show you the greenhouses as well. We grow most of what we use here on the grounds both as part of lessons in multiple subjects and to supply the kitchens as well as our infirmary with what they need. While we do go down to the trading post time to time for items, we don't want to dry up their supply by taking it all. Simply enough to help keep them going plus just enough they can at some point look to expanding if they so wish" Helga said. "I think we should also see about fixing up Sir Raine with a room for the night or even a couple nights in one of the vacant staff quarters. The journey no doubt was an exhausting one I would feel better for his health and safety if he had the chance to rest and recover before setting back out again."

She wasn't too fond of their manner of talking as if Maximus wasn't their but then again she didn't want to make the poor guy talk as he was trying to eat. Whether or not he decided to come stay himself at least she wanted to be sure to put some meat on his bones. Just enough to soften his hard edges, it wouldn't take away from his handsome features and good spirit, it may just help fuel some of his recovery just a bit while enhancing what was already there. "If your ok with staying here Sir Raine, we have plenty of room and it would give you a chance to see how an evening meal as well as morning meal happens in this grand room. Its not anything as interesting as some rooms or corridors but I like that it brings everyone together to connect and bond over while they enjoy a meal" she explained, turning to look out over the grand room before turning back and giving a smile. 

"Actually, if you'd like to Godric, you can take over the tour while I can see about the getting a room set up? I have to check in with the kitchen as well but once I finish I can meet you up at the astronomy tower? I'm sure Rowena and Salazar would agree to let him stay here after such a journey rather than to go down to the tavern and inn. No offence to those that work hard there to provide for themselves but my pride as a cook and witch just couldn't allow you to dine and stay there for even a second when what we have here is far better and good for you body and soul" Helga added then she glanced away to a spot across the room as a brush of color formed on her cheeks. It was hard for her not to feel strongly connected to what she did best and guiltily she was proud of hers and didn't like the idea of competition coming close to what she could do.
