Fire Emblem Three Houses: Cursed Power - Chapter 1

"Exactly! He took back the strands of hair I placed into the device!" Hanneman vented to lady Manulea. The lab rat was certainly unhappy about the events that have occured, that much is certain.

"You didn't tell him, did you?"

"Well... I just found the strands lying on the carpet to my laboratory! I need as much of his dna as possible in order to understand and learn more about his crest. I've never seen such a crest before! Why would he take it back, though? Not like he can make use of shedded strands of hair..." Pondered the lab rat.

"Hmm... well, if someone did that to me without giving consent, I'd be pretty weary too." Admits lady Manulea.

"Yes, but... that's besides the point! Do you think he distrust me? If that's what it is, then phooey! He should trust us by now! All I'm trying to do is help him!"

"Hanneman, I think he understands you mean well. But you must remember, he's only just arrived to the Monastery. He's only just starting to learn about everyone here. Tell me, would you whisper your deepest and darkest secret to someone you only just met?" Questions Manulea.

"W-Why of course not!" Answers Hanneman, a little taken aback by the question. Manulea simply smiles. "Think of how Byleth feels in this kind of a situation. He's trying his very best to trust you. Perhaps his trust may waver, but he's trying. Maybe speak with him a little more when you got the time, and he'll learn it is alright for him to put his trust in you." Finishes Manulea.

"Hmmm... you know what, Manuela? You're absolutely right! And all I've really done up until now is to speak to him about crest! It may do me some good to speak of other matters with him. I will take your regard into consideration." Nods Hanneman.

"Good!" Smiles Manuela before shorty after, walking out to leave next door to her own room. But when she did, she was already greeted by three students who appeared injured.

"What did you kids do this time?"

Hanneman happened to find a single strand of Byleth's hair littered on the floor. Hanneman thought of this as great luck! And it had to be! Now he has regained a precious opportunity to look into Byleth's mysterious crest further.

"Byleth, I understand you might not trust me completely, but I'm doing this not just for discovery's sake, but for your own. I will only find answers through obtaining more of your dna... please, forgive me." Whispered Hanneman before placing the single strand of hair into the device.

And what Hanneman discovered next... changes everything.
