Prologue: The rabbits hole.



The poppies were in full bloom, on the colline the sang, covering the green of the hills in a red shadow of blood-like suggestion. This particular boil of Paris had seen its fair share of history. Once a hill for the most tenebrous, insidious criminals to find their end, pleading and screaming on the gallows, later the guilotine, the rocks looked for redemption, and an asylum was risen, to cure whatever was left to cure, in this city of light.
Forgotten by the wealthy, it fell into decay and rot, and eventually was forced to shut its gates, a cauldron of disease and other...more transcendous terror.

With that in mind, it seemed an unmentionable abnormality to see children, climbing the perches of the lower outer wall, smiling and laughing, as they jumped and sang, as l'école de la colline de sang
opened it's gates for the new school year. Once a place of death and madness, now a place of life and learning. That the children may steel their minds and their honor, to face the hardships of this world...

Applause rang through the auditorium. The headmaster had given his usual, tiresome and extraordinarily boring speech to enter the year, and people had shout their joy to the world, free from this travesty. It was now that his secretary took the pedestal, to announce but one more thing.

"Quiet, quite please. Before you head out to your classrooms, be reminded again that this school takes pride in it's vast array of extracurricular activities. This afternoon in the yard, the schools clubs will introduce themselves to the first years, and those who wich to change their current club. Joining a club is mandatory, so think carefully about what club you wish to join. That is all, I wish you a happy, and successful year."

OOC is here

[Kansa]

Elise did not bother to hide her yawn, new year same stuff as always. She had hoped for something different but it seemed things never changed, she rose to her feet stretching as she prepared for another boring day.

[kj1225]

Oceanus sighs sadly.
Joining a club will cut into my exploration time.

[Adragis]

Christina looks uninterested, but claps along with the rest.
Ugh.

[Akroma]

Christina, Oceanus, Elise, Melvin and Oliver alongside 15 others, are led to their classroom, which thankfully is on the ground floor. Their homeroom teacher, Mrs.Dingleheimer was obese, almost morbidly so, and her bright red died hair, her purple, highly...decorative spectacles and her wide smile did little to distract from it.

"Greeeeetiiihhngs, class 2-2. I am Mrs.Dingleheimer"m she sang, and proceeded to scratch and squeek that blasphemous abnormality of a name onto the board, every long letter of it, and already everybody knew, with this handwriting, taking notes in class would be an actual challenge.

"Now let's all get to know eachother! Come forth, don't be shy, and tell the class something about you!"


....


Ruin has come to this classroom. A task was ahead of you just as unsurmountable as it was uncomfortable. What...what now? There can be no hope in this hell...no hope, at all.

[Adragis]

Christina looked dumbfounded, as well as highly irritated.
...what..?
She sits at her desk, what would have been her chair pushed off to one side.

[Kansa]

Elise glared at the teacher, in an attempt to ignore her she turned her gaze towards one of the radiators at the edge of the room.

[kj1225]

Oceanus looks around before, with a shrug, volunteering.

[Akroma]

"Ah, very, very good. Please, who are you, and what can you tell us about yourself?"

[kj1225]

Oceanus thinks for a small time.
"I'm Oceanus and... uh... I like animals."

[Akroma]

"Oh, what a lovely name."

Snickering can be heared in the classroom, ambushed by foul convention

[Adragis]

((...ambushed by foul convention?))

[kj1225]

Oceanus tilts his head in confusion at the laughing.
Did I say something funny? It's only my name and what I like...

[Akroma]

"No, it was perfect. The lord smiles upon you dear."

[Kansa]

Elise simply rolled her eyes.
