There's immediate laughter from Claude at that description of Garreg Mach, if not only because Abby's description formed after their visit at the very place in the Horizon is entirely apt and because it's a thought he'd had as a student plenty of times. "Hey, you're not going to get any arguments from me on what it was like. Fortunately, weird church-cult is likely to be something of the past since back home it's being rebuilt with new everything behind it."

If he sounds unfazed, it's because he is entirely. There's a lot of improvements to be made to the Academy, but having Teach behind them certainly helps. New directions all around, and all that.

The far more important part of that is that Abby doesn't plan on stopping in figuring out her magic, whether that's what she knows or adding wind spells to it after all, so he nods as he reaches for the door to hold it open for her. Only to furrow his brow briefly a second later in thought as he absorbs that last statement, because: "I- okay, you can't just say something like that and then expect me to not ask about how you'll be disappearing but you'll still be here. That's a little different than the Warp spell I know from home."
