There was a polite knock on the guest room of St. Catherine's, immediately followed by Liz' voice. "Terence? Are you there? Can I come in

Hanging upside-down in a nearby tree, Katelyn watched over a corner of the St. Catherine's campus from her inverted angle. Whereas earlier in the summer she trained almost constantly while not in classes, primarily to give her something to do, recently she could be found enjoying the warm summer days that were similar to the climate she was most used to.
Several students came and went, but none looked up or even noticed the wild girl. No one ever looks up, she silently mused, thinking of how effective a tactic that proved to be for most predators. Luckily, she had no interest in swooping down to pounce upon any of the wandering schoolgirls

The young Seer looked startled up when she heard her friend's voice, but it got quickly replaced by a genuinely happy smile.
"No, that is not necessary anymore," Liz told the other, still smiling. "Because I have already found what I am looking for." She put her arms around Katelyn. "Because I was looking for you. So in a way you did already help me to find what I was looking for?"
The girl giggled softly at what she had just said. "Terence found work," Liz then told her friend. "He found work and a newe house. Well, the work isn't certain yet, but he'll have a talk with someone tomorrow. But I have this feeling he will be accepted and that he will be working on Monday. But for his new house, all his belongings have to be moved from the guest room to this new house. And he has to buy new things as well. Would you like to help with moving as well?"
Katelyn smiled softly with the sudden hug, but grew quite excited upon hearing the good news.
"He did? That is, wonderful! He seemed...very busy, and very stressed. I'm glad he has found a place now." There was a short pause, as she fully comprehended what all that meant. "But now, he will not be here, yes? If he came here to be with you, then why does he leave?"
But, Liz didn't seem very upset, and she knew more than Katelyn did. Giving the smaller girl in her arms a very light squeeze for comfort, Kate didn't worry much about that matter and instead turned her mind to the task at hand. "I would be happy, to help you and Brother Terence. If you need me, then I will try my best."
"I know he will leave, but he will live in the town, so I can still visit him every day." Liz grew excited at that idea, realizing only now that she really, really could see Terence every day, just like before. "We could go together. After classes. I'll take pies and cakes and such with me and we could study there together. Don't you think that'd be great?"
She smiled, suddenly blushing at her own outburst. "But... we should first help it out with moving things. And maybe accompany him to stores to get a bed and a chair and... that kind of things. Shall we go then? He's still in his room, waiting for us..."
