Nothing good had ever come from the line 'It's not you----'. How many times over the years had she not heard that? It was one start to an explanation that she despised above all others. It was nice to hear though that Zeke's lack of attendance in class wasn't because of her teaching methods. "History can be a complicated subject at times." Helena admitted contemplatively hovering in front of Zeke. "But history is always a part of us. We can tell ourselves it's not important or its too hard to remember." Here she paused to smile thinly. "But it always comes back to haunt us if we chose to ignore it. Our history matters whether we like it or not and it's an integral part of who we are. It tell us where we came from, how society has developed over centuries into what it is today and on a more individual level how our choices have shaped our lives and future."

"The point of all history is to see the past and learn from it." Helena finished off feeling like she had just given a class lecture which hadn't exactly been her intent. Oh well.

Moving forward to what Zeke could do for her she asked "How well do you know Sir Nicholas?"
