If the first classroom was far, far too large the first time around, the second was decidedly larger but far more appropriate. Naderi had requested one of the open-air theaters, the ones outside used for a lecture when practical, and plausibly dangerous, elements had to be tested. The open theater could have easily seated past a hundred but was thankfully under-occupied. Several students must have decided that Lithomancy was not for them after the first class, and Naderi let out a sigh of relief at the thought.
Today she'd have less to deal with, and less to teach the rest of her art to. She knew this wouldn't be her last class, seeing as she'd have to teach more in order to get additional spending money. Naderi just hoped more students would give up before getting this far. Perhaps next time she'd be vaguer.
The half-elven woman's brows furrowed at the thought. 'No, that would just lead to more problems.'
In any case, she strode forward to the podium.
"Welcome again folks. This is Applications of Lithomancy. I am," Naderi paused as she placed a hand on her chest, "Naderi, a librarian and adjunct professor here. Today we'll be going over Impulses, the dangers of Lithomancy, and applications. By the end of today, we'll have you cast your first spells. In preparation for this, I've asked a few additional professors to watch over the class."
Naderi looked to the side and sweat just a bit. She had asked for a small handful of combat capable professors. In the best case scenario, this would be an open and shut case. At worst, the classroom just might turn into a battlefield.
