The grand airship of Beacon floated majestically over the kingdom of Vale. As beautiful and excellent peice of enginneering, the airship was effectively nothing more than a glorified school bus. It had made its rounds to various locals to pick of first year students. With each stop, more and more students came on bored. Everyone were excited in their own way. Each student was on the verge of a new adventure. Those with companions were talking up a storm, those without companions either tried to join those who did. Naturally, few kept quiet. As the airship began to fill up with more and more people, the noise of chitchat grew louder and louder. The airship made a wide turn over the city of Vale so that the academy of Beacon could be clearly seen through the viewing window. For many, this was the first real glimpse of Beacon they had ever had.

Liliana had barely gotten on board the airship. She was picked up at the last stop before Beacon. She had no come on board with anyone. She made her way through the crowd of people and tried to listen to every conversation. She was looking for a conversation that she could casually slip into. The first 24 hours at beacon was crucial. It decided your team for the rest of the four years perhaps longer. This time was an important game of judging and strategizing in the hopes you get a good team. Unfortunately for her, She could not seem to find anywhere she could fit in. Everyone seemed to know someone else already. When the airship turned and the academy, She was among the first to notice it. She made her way quickly to the window to take a look.

Victor was among the first people aboard the grand airship of Beacon. He had not cared to mingle with the other who came on board with him or on the multiple stops along the way. He sat himself down on a seat by the window. He had brought a book with him to read. A small mystery novel he had picked up in a bookstore this very morning. Because he had his nose buried in the book, most people did not approach him for conversation. It was perfectly in line with his wishes. However, as the airship departed from its final stop before the academy, he finished the novel. He set the book down and after a few moment, boredom set in. He should have grabbed a bigger book or read slower. He took his first honest look around the airship for the first time. His eyes read all the people they met like a book. As the academy came into view as the airship sailed though the skies, he did not notice until most of the crowd turned their attention out of the window.
