Ariel had waited for everyone - or at least, for the crowd - to leave the auditorium after the lecture. She had a lot of useful information, as far as she was concerned anyways. It would have been better to sit with Jack and leave with him, but he seemed to be taking Nola's instructions to branch out to heart. She, on the other hand, was quite content playing it safe and sticking to herself. 

She had the map of the school grounds sketched out based on what the projection had shown, but she wasn't about to trust her ability to get to class on time following that map alone. Like most others she had seen at the assembly, she held onto her class schedule and searched around for the appropriate rooms. Most of her classes were related to learning more about other races; there was a vastly different outlook from what Nola taught her in the past couple years and what her parents had. She wanted to know more about each - as far as classes could teach her anyways - if it meant she might be able to better aide using her magical capabilities. Mixed in were more spell oriented classes as well. Nola cautioned against such a full schedule, which was the only reason she wasn't also taking any Ancient Languages courses this year; Ariel liked keeping busy, but that was too much as far as Nola was concerned.

With classes mostly found - one or two were at least in the same building as others and her schedule allowed for time to get lost in between courses - Ariel wasn't quite sure what else to do with herself. So she opted to end her travels in the library. Staying was busy was more habit than necessity like it seemed to be for her twin. Which was why she was searching for a book - she would know what she was looking for once she found it - to fill her quite necessary hours after finishing the few books she had brought with her.
