Young Arthur James Wentworth III, more commonly referred to as 'Kid' Wentworth was enrolled into the Academy after I supported his application. The boy and I have a shared history involving a Canadian ritual summoning he and friends happened to ski into. I was nearby at the time and was able to save him from being their next sacrificial offering. His father, a successful multi-billionaire hailing from our homeland of Great Britain, was pleased with my heroic timing and offered me a job as mentor to Arthur. Sir Wentworth the second was an English nobleman and a pious Christian. He respected my standing as a priest of the Anglican Church and we quickly became friends, mostly because of our shared rank as Knight Commanders of the Order of the British Empire. So then Kid became my student, and I have promised to take him under my wing and teach him all that he so keenly wishes to know about the world of magic.


Ryan Santana trails Kid with his nano-cameras as well, which gave me some insight to what his first class was life. This was the First Aid class held by Doctor Jacub Steiner. Kid tells me it was an interesting introduction into Nano-technological repair equipment which he says the Doctor explained could be a key tool in a hero's inventory should he need to heal an injured citizen or team-mate, or in any situation where a hero is depowered and unable to heal by his own power and equipment. Sounds to me like an important lesson.


Meanwhile, I was busy with a few prospective applicants, Beast King, Dante and Noxus, who all failed the morality  and background sections of their interviews. I explained to them how dangerous and irresponsible it would be to allow a rampaging villainous beast, a murderous vampire and a banished killer-demon into a school of young heroes. I instructed them to try atoning for their sins and seek medical help in establishments more like a hospital or criminal rehabilitation prison as opposed to a school for training heroes. On a better note, Gadan was also the class and as I later learnt, so was my old friend and fellow Nighthunter, Angelina Dawes.
