It was a strange sensation to go to sleep in one place and awake in another. Aiko had fallen asleep in the comfort of her bed and awoken on a metal slab in pitch darkness. Light was thankfully easy to summon, with a simple incantation providing a ball of purple light to the room. The slab which...

(open to any Elbion college student or Maester as this is a sort of open house meeting.) The study of celestial bodies and movements of stars is integral to many forms of magic. It is precisely for this reason that the celestial observations and study committee (stargazer's club) has a long...

Excitement bubbled beneath the surface as she approached the wing of the college where Aiko resided. Svenia wasn't entirely sure she was able to hide it very well - not that she needed to, anyway. The opportunity to spend time away from other classmates and - more importantly - one with which...

OOC/ For first year students only "You get your filthy hands out of my pockets!" Calixtus shouted. It didn't have the intended effect. The goblin gave him a sharp back hand. It hurt. "It shuts it's stupid face!" the goblin spat. It finished patting down Calixtus and stepped back. "S'not a...

Where is it? The thought pierced through Aiko’s mind as she searched around the table with as much quickness as she could manage without showing. There was a difference between moving with purpose and being frantic. There was a time and place for the first, but never the second. Aiko knew well...

In a quiet more secluded corner of the courtyard lay a winding coil of snake like tail. It was a quiet morning and Nilamani had slunk off to resume their original form and warm up in a patch of sun. They didn't truly begrudge being essentially confined to legs for most of the day, but it was...

Open to students of Elbion College. First years attending, older students as course helpers. ——————————————— Despite being within the city, Elbion College was vast enough to have a few large courtyards and fields within its borders. Some distance from the main buildings (and a considerable...

Bliss had been waiting in the open training arena all afternoon, mulling over the beginner principles of warding magic. Not that she needed it, it was a way to adapt herself to teach. When Maester Blodwyn asked her of this favour, it wasn't one to exercise the word no to him. "You have excelled...

ENCH 101: Intro to Potions “Right then, we’ll take the last few minutes to go over the syllabus.” Maester Ironheart, oft called ‘Ironlung’ behind his back, began waving an eraser off the black board behind him. He spoke for a while at the importance of honesty, that only a knife-ear would dare...

There were days he could not bear to surround himself around other people. It took a lot out of him to keep up his smiles, to talk to his classmates and make a friend of them. It took a lot to even attend his classes, and some days he looked forward to the curfew so that he could retire to his...

"Is it just me, or are we going to remain pale if our study hour's are always in this room? There's a large window and a half in here!" Atticus leaned back in his seat, glad to have taken his gaze away from his parchment on the essay they were all tasked with writing to revise the five laws of...

GRAND LIBRARY BACKROOM ONE Suleiman turned his head and spat out some blood that had pooled in his mouth. He lay on his back with a lip freshly busted. Almost on his back, to be precise, as he wasn't quite flat on the floor but rather bowed slightly over one of the ladders in the Library...

OOC/ Open to first year students and students from higher years helping. Morphomancy, commonly referred to as Shaprecraft, was the art of taking a material substance and changing it into something else. The five laws of magic were absolute. Everything else was simply a way to apply them in...

Elbion College Convocation Hall OOC/ Open to new students. Staff by request. Calixtus was surprised to find that there was no order to the ceremony. New students arrived in dribs and drabs along with family members or friends. He came alone. The Commencement Convocation was held a week...

In the Age of Chronicles Fall, 13th of Garda, 373 Within the halls of Elbion College The School of Cosmic and Astral Study Scholar Linolet Perinhome prepared for the gathered. Her heart aflutter as she paced back and forth in the narrow hall behind the stage. Maesters, fellow students...

Within the famed library of Elbion College, a student snakes through the massive shelves following his relatively novice spell of locating while mentally reciting the list of books the librarian told him he would need for his latest assignment within the class of General Studies. His movements...

This wasn't her typical type of work and, frankly, her typical crew. Riding along in the back of their supply wagon, Magdalena had spent the majority of the two-day trip to Baron Cvernn's estate with her nose in several books. The Baron wasn't very well known among Elbionese society given his...

A Dance to Remember: A autumn festival for the fae celebrating the hunt. The Erlking himself was rather pleased about the year’s hunt, and so he had subjected himself to a dance on his dearest brother’s request. Midir would do anything for his brother, and he had no complaints when he saw who...
