"I may be unresting and burdened, but I am not unconditionaly interested in bloodshed." Raioyris says as he skims the tome.

"So these people will likely be able to see my Kahigan while I won't be able to see theirs. Without deception I doubt I will be able to fight them easily."


"Hm." Raioyris begins to read anything that could help develop his combat magic skills.

"I'm not putting us in danger with this wing full of Vo am I?"
He askes nonchalantly.

"Thank's dude. Is your ...hair supposed to be on fire?"

"What if it isn't?" he scowls, while grasping at the back of the head. "...thanks."

...

You notice that there are multiple names per office. Most are dwarven names, so far as you can tell.
There's a convenient sign posted next to one office labelled 'FIRST-YEAR CLASSES.' Inside, you find the dwarves Makuro, Karaso, and Coru, each of whom has a desk and a stack of scrolls with sketches of first-year students on them. You notice Murble's picture immediately.

Makuro is sound asleep, Karaso is observing a gold-colored nugget in deep concentration (it looks like he's holding his breath) and Coru is adding a beaker of red-colored solution to a beaker of green, whilst drinking it with a straw.

"I may be unresting and burdened, but I am not unconditionaly interested in bloodshed." Raioyris says as he skims the tome.

"So these people will likely be able to see my Kahigan while I won't be able to see theirs. Without deception I doubt I will be able to fight them easily."


"Hm." Raioyris begins to read anything that could help develop his combat magic skills.

"I'm not putting us in danger with this wing full of Vo am I?"
He askes nonchalantly.

"A wing full of raw Vo?" It takes a moment for him to interpret you. "You keep a spell prepared with you?

Most humans have control over their Kahigan, so unless you are the exception then it shouldn't put us in danger..."


He assembles some books for you to read. (During the Timeskip)

Murble decides to approach Curo first, since he's the only one she's not worried about interrupting.

"Ah, excuse me, we're... you know who I am. This is Dan Adarna, we're both Earth Minors setting up our classes. When might they be available?"

The dwarf lets go of the straw and lets it drop, then spits on the floor and rubs his beard with his elbow.
"You almost threw me off there! Was tryin' to mix a potion."

The dwarf staring at the rock shouts "FAKE!" and throws it down at the ground. Surely enough, it shatters into several pieces which rebound several times on the walls and floor. Surprisingly, he doesn't take a new breath.

The one sleeping remains asleep.

Coru, being the one asked, is the one who answers your question.
"Aye, there's a lot to Earth magic so you got a lot of variety to choose from. I, am teaching the beginner course on Earth magic and basic techniques like earth moving, digging, and digging. Karaso's holding a Telekinesis class, so you'd learn how to move stuff and get a bit of practice with other elements too if that floats yer barge. Don't worry about time slots, we got everything covered.

Makuro, well, he's in his sleep for the next few days. I'll be his substitute until then, but he's teaching an alchemy course."

"...you could do that with telekinesis, sure. But only if you heat it up. If you wanna do that while it's cold, then normal Earth magic's your bet. You'd got to know the crystallization structure of the rock and other physical properties."

The other dwarf Karaso finishes cleaning up the chunks of pyrite from the vicinity of his desk (ignoring that on the other's desks) and places them into a little woolen bag.
"7 AM, 1 PM, 5 PM, and 7 PM." he mentions in passing. "We don't sleep every day."

"Yes!" says Coru. "We'll be in our offices usually when we're not teachin. My class is in room 204B, story below this one. Karaso teaches in 308, and Makuro managed to get OBS1 up in the tower. Pretty good view from there."

(Aaand we're basically done. I'll have to do some longer writeups and I'm a bit sick, so expect it tomorrow rather than soon)

EDIT: I'm sending out PM's to those who haven't picked minor classes. I'm assuming IronyOwl's character is with AoshimaMichio's for this one?

((Probably, but I'd like to hear specifics first.))

Murble frowned in slight dismay at her mistaken guess.

"Apologies, I thought you were enjoying a snack. What's involved in each of those three courses?"

"Aye, like I said earlier, Earth magic begins with the basics: how to alter Earth. We'll start with earth-moving and digging, and students that have time we'll move on to finer forms of manipulation. You'll learn how each rock is different and how to sense its properties.

The telekinesis course, well, it should be obvious, yeah? You can only get so far liquefying rock and altering its structure. If you want some REAL use in combat, heh heh...

Alchemy is for people interested in the scientific and economic side of things. Me, I think its boring, and I say this as an alchemist, but most students that opt for the specialization go on to become very successful."

"Well indeed. Most cultures aren't fond of using magic. I dun't know if you're aware, but lots of village towns ban use use of magic. They say it gives you too much power compared to the others. So naturally we tend to be a refuge for those looking to practice the arts, but outside our city a magician ain't too well appreciated. It's not really a universal skill that gets you far elsewhere.

Alchemy doesn't require magic. Whether you do it in Folstag or elsewhere, it doesn't matter. That said, knowledge of Earth magic goes a long way in the instruction."
