"The failures of one's past do not exist..."

Aurtrox swiftly hopped right up and brushed his robes of any possible dust that may had hoped for a swift end to the meeting, but of course right after him Alfred had to bring up all sorts of worries. Some of which were totally valid, like spreading too thin. But some of which Aurtrox felt were just downright fearmongering. Specifically the idea that him or Sebastian would end up murdered next and what the protocol would be then. Aurtrox would sigh, but this meeting was not over just yet. Sebastian's response was too short to suffice if you asked Aurtrox so he would expand on it.

"We won't lose the acting heads. Knowing Sebastion and myself, I doubt either of us will be so clumsy. Technically a general election would happen in order to elect a new head of council. This temporary leadership system is only meant to last until we truly have no hopes of recovering our lost leader... " Aurtrox did feel bad for Aidou. Was he really gone gone? The man was respectable. Always fair. Sebastion and himself would make for an interesting mix. Likely they would serve for another few months until it was certain that Aidou was not coming back.

Alfred's other concerns were what he wanted to turn most of his attention to. Aurtrox would ignore the cart of food. He was a picky eater and saw nothing that tempted him after that delicious pepper he had just eaten outside.

Aurtrox agreed with Sebastian on the unfortunate fact that they needed to keep splitting, however dangerous it was. Success came with investment, and investment came with splitting up in this case. He would nod at every word. Annamoretta did voice her disapproval on students not being on patrols already, but that just showed that she did not know they already did do some patrols. Aurtrox would not shame her on her ignorance like some would though. He was one of the kinder councilmembers afterall. And she did have a good point on the public announcement part. Better to not put all one's eggs in the same basket.

"Beacon students can certainly help with patrols. We already do routinely assign a few missions for such and it is an easy task to increase. That said, students of beacon are better trained to combat grimm and thus should be first in line for missions forging out path south to new dust mines." This was an obvious choice. Though he knew it would be a mixed mission with military at some point in time. "We do have a growing movement of Vacuons who wish to retake their land. Maybe we can rely heavily on mercenaries from this subset of the population as well?" He wondered if anyone had input on that. He was not particularly close with the Vacuo community

Agatane would make an accusation of him not caring about his students. He took great offense, but showed none. He did care deeply for the students, but he also had supreme control over his affections.
"It is not that I do not care for my students, I am just pragmatic in how are human capital is utilized. Our students are the most important capital we possess when it comes to training new grimm fighters. Once I took charge our grimm takedowns pentupled before my first batch was even graduated." Though everyone knew that the death rate also increased by 55%. The problem there was there was also an increase in grimm interaction so how much of that was Aurtrox vs the grimm becoming more aggressive was impossible to sort out. Overall, Aurtrox's lead over the school had been an undeniable success. He had also output students at almost twice the speed as before with his flexible graduation system based on skill and missions. He would keep his mouth shut though. No need to brag as it would only make him look arrogant.

"Back to the dust mines... I happen to know that one of the main political factions in Phoxuria, the Oxυɾι clan, has great interest in economic development and would work with us to secure a route from Vale to Phoxuria to the southern border of Vacuo where we will find dust mines. We should send a diplomat to work things there as the criminal levels are high and without some ally on the inside we won't get anywhere. Unfortunately, the Oxυɾι clan hates the Krayeth Clouds due to a feud over a hundred years ago over a trade route in the north..."

Despite the importance of the meeting, Alfred was beginning to feel it take a toll on him in his advanced age. He yearned for the old days when the council was more decisive, unified, and respectful but such days were gone. He would absently rub at his temples before focusing back in on the discussions at hand to give his own input and see how the others responded to his concerns. Annamoretta would speak up in agreement that spreading their forces thinner for a mine to the south seemed a foolhardy endeavor, if not in those words, while they were already spread thin. She would also add that with her role, she was a big target; given Arachne had been one of the casualties, it left her position vulnerable as well. Especially in such a time of bad news. He would nod his head to her at that in acknowledgement. She also agreed they should have students do patrols to help supplement their weakened forces at this time. While he knew there was little way to avoid the cut, he was appreciative of Sebastian's concern at the cut to healthcare. He would need to review it with those in charge of the hospitals on the safest way they could go about it later. What followed shortly after was even worse news, however; they lost contact to Menagerie and Aidou's airship went down. Aurelia summed it up best in that their gamble for a new place had cost them and old one, before they even got Atlas. Things were just going south. 'When it rains it pours,' he thought to himself. After they ignited the publics hope with Atlas, having this follow so closely after would ruin much of the hope they gained unless they found a way to quell the worries and fears. That would fall ultimately to Annamoretta though. Aurelia would agree, and stress they needed to be the ones to give the news carefully as she too looked to Annamoretta. She would add then, however, that going for the mines may be a good idea. Agatane would add that the mines would be an opportunity for new jobs and positivity. Alfred was still not quite sold on it, even as Annamoretta would speak that if they did decide to go for the mines they should co opt it with some sort of health related event and keep it secret in case the effort fails.

Alfred would remain silent on the matter for now, pondering on it and what was brought up. During this time, Sebastian arranged for food and drink to arrive; Alfred was not particularly hungry at this time, but he did take the water to quench his throat. He would give a grateful nod to the man for having that brought for them. It was a little after this that both Sebastian and Aurelia would speak about there being contingencies in place, which addressed Alfred's concerns at least. Even if it may not be ideal, having that system would be beneficial if the worst came to pass and led to some security. Aurtrox would then speak up, even if he seemed steadfast it would not come to it, and mention how what would happen for an acting head of council at least as well. Aurelia would take the chance to suggest they make themselves harder targets by having their general day to day positions less known. Alfred would nod in agreement with that; it was easier for him than some of the council members at least. Especially as it would seem less like they were hiding, as they just aimed to make themselves less predictable. Annamoretta would even offer more private hosting for these meetings, which may be wise in future. Aurtrox would then address the student patrol matter, mentioning it would be done and they already did a bit of that regardless which was a relief to Alfred as it was one issue swiftly handled. Though he was already pushing for that mine idea again, this time adding the possibility of mercenaries. While still not for the idea in general, mercenaries were a better source in his mind as it did not hinder from Vale's defense. At Agatanes accusation, Aurtrox seemed unfazed though his wording seemed to strengthen Agatans remark when he called students human capital. Even if Alfred understood people were a resource in the world they lived in, it was his charge to keep as many people alive as he could so he could not see them as such. He would give a brief look to Agatane, agreeing with him, but said nothing for now. The idea of sending mercenaries did ease his mind than it did children(students), or the people in charge of making sure Vale remained standing at the end of the day. Even if it was a bit hypocritical to not wanting to view people as a resource, it was an easier pill to swallow when it was someone who volunteered and was old enough to make an informed choice. While Alfred could not argue with Aurtrox that Grimm take downs had increased since his taking over, he also felt he heard much more deaths for students since Aurtrox took over as well. 'I wonder how his confidence would hold once student number dwindles that he can no longer throw them as aggressively as he does,' Alfred silently pondered. He did not voice it simply because he hoped it would never reach such a point, and that he was wrong in that matter. As was his nature, Aurtrox went back to the mines business to add another avenue for it...interestingly to use a family that hated the Krayeth's. Knowing the headmaster of Beacon, he would keep coming to this issue from whatever angle he could as he believed it was what was importance and would stubbornly keep to it. 'If only that applied for matters outside of his interest when it came to council business,' he thought to himself, thinking it would make things much easier for everyone.

Agatane would speak up that they should vote on the mine business once Sebastian asked if they had any questions or concerns to be addressed. Alfred would take this moment to speak. "I am glad we have measures in place should the worst come to pass, and we can rely on the students to help with patrols for Vale. That will help things greatly in the days to come," he would begin, addressing the prior issues briefly, before continuing. "As for the mines, my vote would be no. With our split forces in pursuit of Atlas, the loss of Aidou and Menagerie, and reduction in resources I feel we should focus on holding what we currently have and re-taking Atlas before we strive to expand in another direction. At least, in a capacity that commits any significant number of our forces. As Aurtrox has mentioned alternatives, if the majority of the forces needed for this endeavor came from mercenaries and or this clan, then I would begrudgingly agree to it. Assuming they can be trusted to not just take it for themselves. Combining such an endeavor with Annamoretta's idea of an event would be best; with so much losses, if this effort were to fail, it may be the end of any morale and positivity we garnered with our citizens. This is better as sudden and unexpected good news should we succeed, and if it fails it is better for the public to not know of it," he would say, having waited till everyone spoke their thoughts more or less to vice his own. He believed he addressed everything that needed to be addressed at least.
