Brother Arcon and Sister Mabel

> Brother Arcon and Sister Mabel are two individuals who shaped a significant portion of Seline’s childhood. Sister Mabel shaped it like a sharp slap from a ruler to the knuckles or rear. Improper behavior was punished swiftly and often. Brother Arcon shaped it like a flower. Watered and tended with kindness and growth in the proper direction was encouraged. Mabel has been an overseer of the orphans for as long as anyone can remember. Even Arcon struggles to remember when she first came to the Cathedral. She believes very strongly in correcting “immoral behavior” swiftly and decisively. When it came to Seline she saw her as plagued with such behaviors, chief among them were the wild stories of seeing the Undertaker. Arcon saw Seline as a troubled child that had experience much trauma in her life. Her stories were indeed strange and fantastical, but so were her strange gifts. Arcon thought it better to let her do as she would and be present when she sought guidance. Which was what saved the life of a certain white crow that Seline found one day.

## Brother Arcon

### Brother Arcon

#### Day of the Mother

Brother Arcon is on hand helping prepare the Cathedral for the coming celebration and greets Seline and Talia warmly. After some catching up with Seline,  he is saddened to hear about the fate of Zachariah. Before they part ways he mentions Jareth and how Jareth is continuing Seline's campaign of turning Sister Mabel new colors.

The next day, Talia and Seline return to the Cathedral and ask Brother Arcon if there any guest rooms available. He says that there aren't but offers a space in the garden for their tent. Seline asks Brother Arcon about mischievous boy he mentioned the previous day as well as if he is Delilah's child. Brother Arcon says he is not.

After the attack, Brother Arcon is the first one Talia finds to inform of Sister Mabel's passing. Seline joins Brother Arcon and she assists him in preparing Sister Mabel for burial.

Talia and Seline later return to the cathedral and approach Brother Arcon about adopting Jareth. They want to adopt him but house him at the Cathedral until he's of age to come with them. Brother Arcon advises against this because he would be treated even more adversely buy those not yet adopted. He does suggest instead if they want to adopt him to have him attend Bluepeak Pines Academy until he's of age. They return to Brother Arcon and finalize the adoption. He does see Jareth off and has Jareth's personal effects sent up to the academy. Seline and Brother Arcon speak on the attack before parting ways.

#### Moment of Truth

Seline is pleasantly surprised when Felicia Firehawk calls Brother Arcon to the stand. Of Seline, Brother Arcon describes her as a mysterious but wonderful child. He further states growing up Seline was unique on the one hand more mature but more playful than the other children. Of the Day of the Mother, he describes the event saying that Seline and Talia save dozens of lives for the 42nd was largely ineffective. Silas Tern cross-examines Brother Arcon focusing on Seline's impish and mischievous nature.

> **Brother Arcon** *(with almost parental indignation)*Seline was far from a perfect child, well Mother forgive my language she could be a right little s\*\*\* sometimes, but all children can be that and some can be far worse. Some could grow up to be lackeys for insidious organizations!—
