Sixty years has he kept his post, sixty years has he served, sixty years passed since the old coot finally managed to realize what was going on and save him from the darkness.

Teacher of history at Crystal Preparatory Academy for sixty years, first-hand witness to much of what he had to teach. The Gull Raids, Sombra, the Oddon Civil War, he'd seen it all and been a part of much of it.

Sixty years of service, service to six principals; the old coot for a few years, then the ever-forgettable Lukewarm, good Principal Amore, poor Sombra, cold Cinch, and now the fair Cadenza. He'd been there through so much; the old coot's mercurial leadership, Lukewarm's invisibility, Amore's even-handed prudence, Sombra's promise and descent into darkness, likewise for his mirror, and now Cadance's kindness and diplomacy. He's seen principals come and he's seen them go, and he's done his best to help them while they were there.

And now, he's preparing to help his principal with history.

To be precise, with making it.
