He could hear a lot of voices…

The voices of many men and women, either shouting, groaning, or cursing. The volume of the collective vocals was so loud that it seemed as though the air itself was vibrating. And accompanying the voices was the sound of metal clashing against metal that was almost deafening.

Even without seeing what was going on around him, he could already guess what sort of thing could cause such sounds to echo far and wide. But this time, he could see it all happening as if he was a bird flying above the cloud of dust kicked up by the horror that was unfolding on the ground bellow…

A great battle was raging, one army against another.

There must have been hundreds of people down there, fighting against each other. Yet despite the fact that it felt like he was observing the battle from the sky, he couldn't get a good look at any of the ones who were participating in this battle…

Though that was mainly due to the fact that his vision could only focus on a single individual that was calmly approaching the bloody spectacle… a familiar figure who wielded a sword that looked as though it was made of literal lightning.


Slowly, Robin opened his eyes when he felt his consciousness return to him. Looking around his surroundings, it took him a few moments before everything came back to him. Right, he was an amnesiac who had been found by a professor with her students, after which they brought him to a Monastery called Garreg Mach.

Forcing himself to sit up, the white-haired man tried to recall what he did yesterday before he fell asleep in infirmary, silently hoping that his amnesia wasn't so bad that he'd already forgotten the events of the previous day. He remembered talking with Byleth over their… 'shared trait', he also remembered Annette and Mercedes bringing him food from Dining Hall. Then, when he was about to take a nap, Dimitri came with Dedue with the former intent on fulfilling his promise to give him a tour around the Monastery.

And then he had a spar with Jeralt where the man smashed his shoulder with enough force to make him think it was dislocated. Afterward, Dimitri brought him to the Dining Hall since by that point it was dinner time, and the prince was even kind enough to procure a meal for him. He also ended up conversing with some of the other students from the Blue Lions while eating dinner though unfortunately, he didn't run into Byleth for the remainder of the day. He remembered returning to the infirmary shortly after because as Dimitri explained, the students of Monastery had to adhere to the academy's curfew hours and while he was technically a guest it would be best if he wasn't found wondering the Monastery grounds late at night, there was no need to invite unnecessary suspicions upon his person. He spent the rest of the night replaying his spar against Jeralt in his mind before falling asleep.

Robin smiled a little; admittedly a little happy and relieved that he still could remember what happened yesterday. He then glanced at the heavy coat, yellow shrug top, and armored 'skirt' that were placed neatly on a chair near his bed, leaving him in a sleeveless top and a pair of baggy pants. Robin hadn't realized it yesterday due to his baggy clothing and rather large coat but he wasn't as scrawny as he originally thought he was… he actually had rather impressive muscles… in his opinion anyway.

He chuckled to himself as he observed his arm, noting that it was bigger than what his clothing would suggest. Shaking his head slightly, Robin decided to get dressed for the day as he got down from the bed he'd slept on and put on his boots.

As he started to put on his clothes, Robin tried to recall the dream that he experienced last night. He couldn't remember it well but he was sure it involved a lot of people… though one thing that he could recall vividly was a sword… a sword made of lightning.

Before he could try to see if he could recollect anything else, the sound of several knocks on the door startled him a little. After putting on his coat, Robin approached the door, half-expecting it was Manuela on the other side, before he opened it… only to come face to face with Professor Byleth Eisner.

"Good morning." The professor greeted while Robin could only blink, not expecting someone to visit him this early in the morning. Byleth even brought a tray of breakfast with her, indicating that she had just visited the Dining Hall before coming here.

"Good morning." Robin greeted with a nod after he managed to regain his composure before stepping aside to allow Byleth to enter the room.

"I brought you some breakfast." Byleth said while tilting her head slightly when Robin gave her a confused look while nodding toward the tray that she just placed near his bed.

"Ah, I see. Thank you and I'm sorry for the trouble." Robin replied with a small sheepish smile as he scratched his cheek. Ingrid had told him yesterday when he visited the Dining Hall with Dimitri and his retainer on how the meals offered in Dining Hall was only free to the official residents of the Monastery such as the students, priests, or staff thus if he wanted food, he needed to pay for it. Dimitri was kind enough to treat him to dinner last night and Robin honestly hadn't thought ahead as to how he would get his first meal of the day since he would have preferred not resorting to asking someone to cover the costs for it.

It seemed Byleth had unknowingly provided him with the solution for his morning dilemma.

Byleth simply shook her head in response before she grabbed a bowl of tomato soup and a loaf of bread, an action that Robin soon mimicked when Byleth kept staring at him even after she had sat down on his bed. It was only after he grabbed the other bowl of tomato soup as well as the remaining loaf of bread that Byleth started to eat her breakfast, staring with drinking the bowl's contents.

"Sorry again for this… I promise I'll pay you back… once I get a job, that is." Robin said once he took a seat next to her before breaking his bread in half and then dipping one half of the bread into the soup. He didn't really have much time to find somewhere that would employ him yesterday, but he intended to see if there were any job openings he could take today, if not in the Monastery then perhaps he'd find some in the nearby village.

"There is no need. I didn't come here just to give you breakfast." Byleth admitted before she took a bite from her bread. Robin raised his eyebrow as he waited for the woman to continue with what she said as he watched her chew a little before swallowing.

"I wanted to continue our conversation from yesterday."

As if on cue, Robin immediately winced when a growling noise vibrated throughout his skull.

'What is she doing here?! Tell her to leave or better yet, get rid of her! Her sickening presence does nothing but interrupt my slumber!'

"It's the voice in your mind, isn't it?" Byleth asked when she saw the white-haired man suddenly winced. She had experienced the same thing when Sothis raised her voice before, and she'd quickly learned it was a rather unpleasant sensation.

"Yeah, he is still going on and on about your sickening presence." Robin informed her as he massaged his forehead before he muttered something under his breath, something that sounded like he wouldn't kill anyone here… though she might have misheard him.

'You're the only one here whose presence is sickening, you brute!' this time, it was Byleth who winced when Sothis suddenly shouted in her mind out of blue. She thought the girl was still asleep and had hoped she would remain that way for the duration of her talk with Robin but it seemed being here was enough to wake her up.

"He can't hear you; you're do realize this right?" Byleth muttered as she mimicked Robin's action in massaging her forehead. While she may not yet know the name this other entity went by, she could recall that Robin referred to the voice in his head as 'he'; not to mention he seemed surprised to hear the voice in her own head was a female which would further support the notion that the one occupying Robin's head identified as a male.

'Then tell him what I think of him calling my presence sickening.'

In truth, Byleth would much rather not as she could easily see that it would lead to an argument between Sothis and the voice in Robin's head. Yet at the same time, she knew that the girl would bug her and would probably continuously remind her that she was still alive thanks to the power that belonged to her. With a sigh, Byleth faced Robin, who raised his eyebrow in response to her staring at him intensely, before she opened her mouth.

"The voice in my head said… His presence is the only one here… that is sickening."

Predictably, Robin immediately winced as soon as the words left her mouth and although she might not look like it, she was trying to convey her apologetic sentiment to Robin through her expression… which might not be a good idea at all.

'What did that insect just say?!'

"In her defense, you are the one who started this Grima. And why the heck you keep referring to her presence as sickening anyway?" Robin said in irritation as he kept massaging his forehead. He said something else afterward, but Byleth didn't register the rest of his words as her attention was focused on the girl in her mind when she heard her gasp in surprise.

'Is something wrong Sothis?'

It took several seconds before Sothis replied to her question.

'That name… Grima… it sounds familiar to me… yet I cannot remember where I have heard it before.' Sothis admitted with uncertainty in her voice. Byleth remembered that Sothis used a similar tone of voice back then when she suddenly recalled her own name as well as remembering that someone once referred to her as 'The Beginning'. Could it be true that Sothis and this 'Grima' that dwelled within Robin were somehow linked?

"What's wrong?" Robin's gentle voice brought Byleth back to the present and made her turn to Robin to find him staring at her with a concerned expression.

'Should I tell him about the possible connection between you and the voice in his head?' Byleth decided to ask Sothis first… just so the girl wouldn't complain if she told Robin about it.

'Perhaps… if this Grima is really connected to me somehow then it'll better if we tell him about me, maybe he might even know something that I have forgotten… even if I don't like his attitude.' Sothis said carefully after a few moments of consideration. Byleth agreed, if Grima had anything to do with Sothis then it would better for them to come clean about it and as Sothis said, perhaps Grima was privy to information which they were still ignorant of.

But first…

"Robin, does the voice in your head know anything about someone called… Sothis?" Byleth asked slowly. If Sothis felt the name Grima sounded familiar to her then perhaps the opposite was also true.

'You heard her, does that name ring any bells?' Robin asked the occupant of his mind as he took a sip from his bowl of soup.

'Sothis… Sothis…'

When only silence greeted him afterward, Robin knew that the name must have invoked something within the voice because he could tell if Grima didn't know anything about the name then he would most likely would have immediately dismissed it rather rudely; saying something along the lines of how he couldn't be expected to keep track of the names of every single insect in the world or the name must belong to someone so far beneath him that he would never bother to try and remember it. It has only been one day but Robin had a pretty good grasp of Grima's attitude and basic personality… especially because he couldn't exactly avoid him and his mocking comments.

'Simply uttering that name leaves a disgusting taste in my mouth, it is familiar in a bitter sort of way.' Grima eventually spoke up and Robin immediately noticed the frustration in his voice. He found this strange, was Grima frustrated because he couldn't remember what the name Sothis meant to him? He said the name left a bad taste in his mouth, not that he knew the name.

However, Robin decided to not point it out to Grima or tell Byleth about the exact words that Grima just said… he had feeling that the voice in Byleth's head wouldn't appreciate what Grima just said.

"He felt familiarity with it, but he can't remember why that name feels familiar to him." Robin informed the professor before he put the last remainder of bread into his mouth.

"He doesn't remember why it feels familiar to him? … Does Grima also have amnesia?" Byleth asked after blinking twice. Although her expression didn't show it at all, Robin could detect the faint surprise in the tone of her voice. Though, it was one particular word in her sentence that immediately caught Robin's attention.

"Also? Does… has the voice in your head – Sothis, right? – lost her memories too?" Robin asked, admittedly surprised by this fact. It hadn't even been three days and he'd already met two other people other than him who were suffering from amnesia too… even if the people in question were voices in someone's head.

When Byleth gave him a nod, Robin put a fist under his chin as a thought came to him. At first, he thought that he and Byleth experiencing something similar, having a voice in their head, might be nothing more than just a coincidence but now, after seeing that both the entities inside of them at least seemed to be familiar with each other's name, and both having amnesia on top of that, made him believe that maybe, just maybe, it was no coincidence that she ended up being the one that found him.

"Byleth, could you tell me how exactly Sothis ended up in your mind?" Robin decided to ask after thinking about the possible connection between Sothis and Grima. First, he needed to know all there was to know about Sothis.

"I'm afraid we don't know. I became aware of her existence about a month ago, and neither of us knows how she ended up in my mind." Byleth answered honestly, seeing no point in withholding the truth since it was highly possible that Sothis and Grima did have a connection.

"So, she just suddenly appeared out of blue one day?" Robin questioned while tilting his head slightly which Byleth immediately answered by shaking her head.

"Not exactly. At first, I had a dream about her. She asked me about my name and my day of birth. Then during a battle that happened not long after I dreamed about her, she…" Byleth paused as she just now realized that if she was about to tell Robin everything she knew about Sothis then she would also need to tell him about the Divine Pulse.

She hasn't told anyone about that specific ability and honestly didn't plan on telling anyone either, not even her father. After all, what was the point in telling them about Divine Pulse? It's not as if she could physically prove she was telling them the truth anyhow since it was clear that only she could remember what had happened after Divine Pulse rewound time.

'It might raise any suspicions he has of us but if you're not willing to tell him about Divine Pulse yet then why not ask if that brute, Grima, has also granted the boy some sort of ability? As much as I dislike to admit it the two of us seem to have several similarities, from our lack of memories to being familiar with each other's name. It honestly wouldn't surprise me if it turns out the boy also has a special power of his own granted to him by the brute.' Sothis advised, knowing that part of Byleth was still suspicious of Robin regardless of what has been revealed about him so far. Besides, in the event that Robin turned out to be an enemy then him knowing about Divine Pulse could give him an advantage.

Before Byleth could respond to Sothis' suggestion, a hand on her shoulder immediately caused her to return her attention to the white-haired man who was giving her a small smile.

"If there is something you don't want to reveal to me yet, it's fine. After all, even if we both are in a similar predicament, I am still a stranger to you, aren't I?" Robin said, well aware that he couldn't just force Byleth to tell him everything about Sothis. While he would like it if she trusted him but he could understand why that may not be the case just yet, after all, they've only known each other for one day plus they barely had a chance to interact yesterday thanks to the many tasks she had to attend to as a professor.

'Ugh, what utter nonsense, if she refuses to reveal everything then just force it out of her… or are you that incompetent that you can't extract information from a simple woman?'Grima commented in his mind. It was obvious he'd spoken out more for the sake of insulting him rather than trying to force him to make Byleth talk.

'And scare away a potential ally? Are you unable to recognize the distinct possibility that she could be on our side? Especially since not only has she experienced the same thing as us but it was clear you and Sothis recognize each other somehow. How could you be so blind to an opportunity like this?' Robin shot back, deciding to fight back for once instead of staying silent. Robin then needed to suppress the urge to smirk when he heard Grima growl in annoyance, most likely annoyed that he was talking back to him.

"Divine Pulse."

"What?" Robin was brought back out of his small victory moment, while ignoring Grima grumbling about how he dare to talk back to him, when Byleth said something that he didn't catch.

"Sothis… she doesn't just exist in my head. She also granted me a useful ability called Divine Pulse." She admitted that she wasn't exactly one hundred percent sure why she decided to tell him. Perhaps because she knew he would believe her or perhaps because of the soothing presence that seemed to ooze from him, regardless of the reason, she felt that perhaps she at least could tell him about Divine Pulse after seeing his understanding smile. It honestly didn't make sense to her.

"Really? It seems like Sothis and Grima really are similar, aren't they? He also granted me an ability called Fell Brand-"

'How dare you comparing me with a lesser being like that thing in that dull girl's head, you brainless moron?!'

'Tell him to never ever say that again! That brute and I, despite our similar circumstance, don't have any similarities in the slightest!'

Both Robin and Byleth winced simultaneously when the respective voice in their head immediately denied any similarities that they might have even if Robin didn't mean it that way when he said that two were really similar.

"Let me guess, Sothis disliked being compared to Grima." Robin said with a sigh as he massaged his forehead, making a mental note to avoid saying things that even remotely suggested those two might have something in common.

"She requests that you never say that she is similar to Grima." Byleth replied as she, once again, mimicked Robin's action in massaging her forehead, her annoyance being clear to pick up on in both her tone and her eyes.

Robin nodded to show he understood before he lets out another sigh. Geez, and they said they weren't similar at all while it was obvious that-

The growl that caused him to wince a little reminded Robin that the occupant of mind was also capable of reading his thought. He honestly hated that he couldn't even have some privacy in his own damned mind thanks to Grima's presence there… but then again, he supposed that the constant mental intrusion wasn't too high a price for being able to use Fell Brand.

Speaking of which…

"Anyway, what sort of ability does Divine Pulse gives you? Fell Brand allows me to see a few seconds into the future." Robin decided to redirect their conversation back on the ability that the voice in their head had given them respectively.

"Is that how you knew that an arrow was about to hit me?" Byleth asked, referring to how the man saved her yesterday. With this revelation, she realized that Robin managed to save her not because he saw the arrow coming with his own eyes but because he must have seen the arrow hit her before it happened with Fell Brand.

"That's right. That's also how I knew the wyvern was targeting Ashe, because Fell Brand warned me about it." Robin confirmed with a nod.

"That's a useful ability." Byleth commented with a nod. There were several perks in being able to see the future compared to her own ability, the most obvious was it didn't need her to experience the pain of the erased blow firsthand or be forced to watch her students get hurt first and Robin's ability would allow her to see what would happen beforehand, allowing her to act accordingly to prevent any harm from befalling anyone before it had ever occurred.

She could hear Sothis let out a huff in her mind though Byleth didn't understand why the girl would do so thus she decided to ignore it.

"And what about Divine Pulse?" Robin asked again, his expression seemed to be eager to learn about her ability. Well, since he had already revealed his first…

"It allows me to rewind time for a few seconds into the past while still allowing me to retain memories of what had just occurred."

"That actually sounds awesome; I imagine it must be quite a life saver." Robin said with a nod, his mind already imagined what he would be capable of if it was that kind of power that Grima, 'so benevolently', gave him. Even outside of combat, there were many applications that rewinding time could have… such as avoiding an awkward moment or embarrassing slip up during a conversation.

'Really? All the things one could do with the power to turn back the hands of time and that was the first thing that came to your mind? Such a mediocre thought process, your small semblance of a brain is utterly wasted on a simpleton like yourself.'

'What the hell is that supposed to mean? That was only one example, I can think of a much more creative way to use it if I want!'

"It can also be very painful." Byleth mumbled quietly though Robin was still able to overhear what she just said.

"What do you mean?"

"When I rewind time, it wasn't only the memories that stayed with me, any feelings of pain I suffered also stay with me. If I was stabbed then I will still feel the sensation of the blade cutting into me even after time was rewound. My body usually needs a few moments to adjust that the wound that was supposed to be there has disappeared suddenly." Byleth admitted with a shrug, admitting it was one aspect that she didn't like about her power. While she's always been better than most at dealing with pain due to her lack of emotions that didn't mean she didn't feel it any less than a normal person would. If she could choose then she would prefer if the pain she experienced didn't stay with her when she used Divine Pulse.

'Well, I apologize for that but that's just how your body will naturally react as Divine Pulse doesn't affect your mind to ensure you still retain your memories of what happened before time was rewritten. It isn't like I was the one who decided how one's physical form would react in that kind of situation.' Sothis grumbled before letting out another huff. Byleth could only shrug again, not really blaming Sothis for how Divine Pulse worked; she just wasn't fond of that aspect.

'Hah! Of course such a flawed power would have that kind of pathetic weakness unlike my superior might! Tell her about it!' Grima suddenly laughed in his mind, making him letting out a silent sigh.

'We aren't compar-'

The growl that suddenly resounded through his head was enough for him to let out a resigned sigh, which caught Byleth's attention, before he opened his mouth. He really didn't want to play the part of a messenger bird, and especially not to a jerk like Grima of all people, if he even was a person that is. But despite his misgivings it was very clear that Grima would give him a pounding headache the whole day if his order wasn't fulfilled.

"Grima said… that Divine Pulse was a flawed power with… a pathetic weakness… unlike Fell Brand."

Byleth immediately shot him an irritated glare, knowing what his words would cause. Robin only could give the woman an apologetic grin when she suddenly winced, no doubt that Sothis must not have taken to kindly to the blatant insult.

'At least my 'flawed' power could undo any injuries on this child and those around her. Tell me brute, could your 'perfect' power do that? Hah, I doubt it! Not so perfect after all. Tell him that child!'

Normally Byleth would simply sigh and tell Sothis just to be the mature one… but she couldn't help but give Robin another irritated glare as she, without hesitation, repeated what Sothis just said, word-for-word. She couldn't lie, seeing Robin wince afterward gave her… a strange sense satisfaction.

A small part of her feared that Sothis was starting to rub off on her.

'There is no need to undo anything if the injuries themselves can be avoided in the first place! The fact that your power requires that girl or others to be in harm's way to be useful should already tell you on how flawed it is! Tell her that worm!'

'And can you claim your power can always prevent harm from occurring? There will always those who are faster and stronger than that boy, how can a mere warning help him avoid those attacks that are too fast for him? If he is hurt then it'll decrease his effectiveness in a fight. My power can keep the child in her prime condition without any trouble! Tell him that child!'

'Hah! I should have expected an insect such as yourself to think that my power only granted him the ability to see the future. The boy is so incompetent that I took pity on his pathetic performance and granted him the ability to use my own power to boost his spell casting and physical attributes. Combined that with all the warning he gets, if not for his own shortcomings, then no one could so much as touch him!'

'I'm willing to admit that I can't do that, however, my control over time doesn't stop on merely rewinding it. I can stop time completely, even if only temporarily, to give the child the time she needs to strategize which then combined with the power to return to past should make sure she'd prepared for everything!'

"Okay that's enough Grima."

"Sothis, please stop. There is no point go this."

Robin let out a sigh of relief when Grima merely growled before letting out a disgusted snort while Byleth was glad that Sothis was willing to stop even if she lets out a huff to make her annoyance known.

Honestly, it would be easier if the two could speak to each other on their own instead of forcing him and Byleth to act as their 'mouths' for a stupid childish argument.

"I'm really sorry about that but this guy keeps threatening to give me a headache if he didn't get his way." Robin said with another sigh while making sure that his irritation and annoyance could be clearly heard in his voice… though he doubted that Grima would even care anyway.

"It's fine, I should have tried to persuade Sothis to act more mature." Byleth admitted, part of her feeling fortunate that Sothis was more reasonable, most of the time anyway, and would never threaten to cause her harm to get what she wanted… at least she hoped so.

'Your faith in me is palpable.' Byleth could practically feel Sothis rolling her eyes as she said that. 'However, you may take comfort in the knowledge that I will never lower myself to the same level as that brute. Honestly, I pity the boy for being stuck with such unpleasant company.'

'Thank you.' Byleth made sure to express her gratitude… just in case.

"Putting aside the stupid argument, I can't help but notice that Fell Brand and Divine Pulse are kind of similar. Both give us the ability to mess with time for a few seconds, but the main difference is one involves the future while the other centers around the past." Robin pointed out after a few seconds of silence.

Byleth blinked at the man before she started to ponder what he just said and found that he was right. While she didn't know if Fell Brand physically interacted with time in the same way Divine Pulse did but in theory, the two abilities are similar enough. One can physical influence the flow of time to reverse its direction while the other, she presumed, takes a peek of the events that would happen in the future.

"Do you think the two powers work like that because Sothis and Grima might be connected in some ways?" Byleth inquired, feeling that the idea of the two voices in their respective mind being connected seemed to become more and more likely.

"Perhaps but until we have more proof or until one of them regains their memories then all we can do is speculate. I'm also curious on the reason why we are the ones who can hear these two… how exactly you did you end up with Sothis again?" Robin responded, remembering that she hadn't told him all the details of how this all began.

"Like I said before, it started with a dream. Then during a battle later that day, when I was about to be hacked by a bandit, time itself stopped and that was when Sothis pulled my consciousness into what she referred to as her mental domain. She explained to me who she was, how I would die the moment time started to move again, and how she revealed that she could rewind time. From that point, Sothis could talk to me anytime and granted me the use of Divine Pulse." Byleth summarized the events on how she first met Sothis as simply as she could.

Robin simply hummed, noticeably he wasn't all that surprised by her story, as he silently wondered if his own story on how he ended up with Grima was similar to Byleth.

Though, before Robin could ask another question, a knock that came from the door startled them both. After exchanging a glance with Byleth, Robin decided to stand up and approach the door after putting his soup down, silently wondering if whoever behind the door had ended up listening to their conversation. The fact that Byleth seemed uncomfortable when Mercedes and Annette asked what they were talking about yesterday, where he decided to tell them a lie, suggested that she hadn't told her students about her 'condition'. Then again, most people might think she was delusional unless they experienced it themselves like he had.

When Robin opened the door, he was greeted by the sight of a man in silver armor who praised him yesterday after his spar against Jeralt, claiming that he hadn't seen many people that could last that long against the captain. If he wasn't wrong, Dimitri and Jeralt called him Alois.

"Ah! Good morning lad! I- oh Professor, good morning to you too! I didn't expect you to be here." Alois greeted, giving him and the blue-haired professor a friendly grin.

Byleth merely gave the man a small nod in response while Robin decided to return the man's greeting.

"Good morning to you too Sir Alois, is there something you needed from me?" Robin asked since the man must be here to visit him specifically, after all, he didn't look to be injured at all.

"Yes, actually. I heard from Seteth yesterday that you were looking for a job, are you still looking for one?"

Robin's eyes immediately lit up like a child that had just gotten a new toy from their parents as he nodded his head eagerly. Was this man here to offer him a job? Did Seteth truly go out of his way to find a job for him? If that was the case then he needed to thank the stern-looking man the next time they met.

"Well, I have one for you but it isn't exactly the sort of job you might have had in mind." Alois admitted with a laugh while Robin simply blinked his eyes in confusion, not understanding what the man meant. But well… job was a job, right? It's not like he had any idea what kind of job he would be good at anyway.

"Well, what kind of job is it? As long as I can do it well then I won't mind doing it." Robin reassured with a small smile, beggars couldn't be choosers after all… when exactly did heard that saying again?

His reassurance seemed to have put more confidence in the older man as with a wide smile, Alois put a hand on his shoulder before finally opening his mouth…

"Great then, because I want to take you under my wing."

…. What?


And we have Sothis and Grima first argument, they won't always bicker since they can't exactly talk to each other directly but they will bicker again in the future, much to Robin and Byleth annoyance.

Thanks for reading the chapter and see you in the next chapter.
