His thoughts drifted back to Gleywine's mention of his love, the one taken by the King. Ernest was surprised by that, he assumed that the Getalia would only enslave outsiders, but it seemed they grabbed their own lower casted people as well.<br/><br/><span style="color: #FFBF00">"If..." </span>Ernest paused, wondering if it was appropriate to say. He wanted to offer Gleywine someone he could rely on, to talk to--a friend. It must be difficult to live everyday under the rule of the very people who had caused your love's death, after all.<span style="color: #FFBF00">"If you ever need to vent or speak about things, I would be honored to lend you an ear. I know that life in Getalia must be difficult, all things considered. I will do all I can to help you and your people---I know I am just a professor with soft hands, but the injustices you have had to face will be remedied. Of that, I have no doubt...and I hope to be a part of that."</span>The professor may have been disgraced in his own world, considered a bastard by friends and family--but he was a good man regardless. Gleywine's stories both told and silent motivated him to become a better person, to do all he could to help the people of Getalia.<br/><br/>He could do research along the way, but his priority was now securing a fate of freedom and security for the people of Getalia.
