[Having sat on many a council with Claude, Marianne is well acquainted with the expression he wears as she begins her explanation. It's pointedly pleasant and neutral, meant to put the speaker at ease without giving anything away. That he seems sincerely more relaxed by the end is a relief, but then he opens his mouth and confuses things quite a bit.]

[She most definitely does not. That Claude is from the future and Hilda is from the past is difficult enough to wrap her head around, but the confusion goes even beyond that.

So we're all from different times? Oh, except that you just said that Sylvain and Petra don't remember things like we do. So we're from different... Fódlans...?
That shouldn't be possible. I-I don't doubt you, but... um, this is a lot to take in.
