@Aislingjack ran after Avalon and listened to what she said"that's a huge relief, I don't know a thing about the little beast except that it likes the 'flesh' of apples"

Elizabeth got out of the water and grabbed a towel to wipe herself off.

"I am not busy it, so it seems," Elizabeth said. "Since Ayaka wants to check on her companions, perhaps I should do the same."

[Aisling]

@Ninkitty@ZB1996

"Alright then. I'll stop by my room to get a couple things. At this time of day, my menagerie is asleep. I do want to do some Independent study before bed." Mystique spoke quietly.

@Blizz


"That is why Thomas is here. From what I understand he knows a lot about dragons and he did raise one up from its shell. You will be fine, Jack. Just relax and learn." Lady Avalon spoke comfortingly to Jack.

[Blizz]

@Aislingjack nodded and took a deep breath"sorry, I haven't been here for longer than a few hours, I just tripped over a painting and fell here, next thing I know I'm in a distant world that's home to an arcane school, I hardly know anything about what's going on here"

[Aisling]

"Then you must have been the late comer for this year. And you are the only student in your level if I remember right. Don't worry, I am sure that Lady Violetta will make sure that you have your free trip to the Village or did you do that yet?" Lady Avalon asked as they walked into the dining room.

[Blizz]

@Aisling"no, I fell face first on the ground, got up and walked in to see where I was, than someone asked me what I was doing and I told them that I was figuring out where the heck I was, she led me to the cafeteria, I ate till I couldn't, I met with her and Thomas and got my dragon"

[Aisling]

"Was the woman Lady Violetta? She tends to wear various shades of purple. Or was she a student? Hmmmmmm........Perhaps we should wear name tags. Particularly if we grow larger. I will speak with Lady Violetta about a trip to the Village." Lady Avalon spoke.

[Blizz]

Jack shook his head"I don't recall seeing lady violetta, she was a student who was also under Thomas's wing, not his dragons wing mind you,"jack said humorously

"Well to our rooms then before dinner?" Ayaka asked as she started toward the staircase. "I can't wait to see what's for dinner. I'm hungry." She can think of three others who are probably hungry right now too. "But wow, I can't believe how much time passed while we were swimming."

[Aisling]

@ZB1996@Ninkitty

"I know that I am. Perhaps I should feed them quickly." Mystique spoke as she thought.
"What do you think of that new guy, Jack?"

[Ninkitty]

@Aisling@ZB1996
"So far he seems more clueless as to what's going on more than anything. But we all pretty much were in the same situation when we arrived. Though didn't he arrive late too? I'm not sure he even got to go the Village yet..." Ayaka was simply speaking from what she already knew about Jack, which isn't much. "I can't say too much more about him though. What do you think of him?"

[Aisling]

@ZB1996@Ninkitty

"He is clueless. But we had the same kind of problems which you pointed out. We were settled in fairly quickly or at least I feel like I did. Jack seems to be ..... nice, but I wonder if he can keep up with the work load. I wonder what kind of a background he came from and if he did well in school or not. The subjects here are fun but they can be gruelling at times." Mystique commented.

[ZB1996]

@Ninkitty@Aisling

"I can only say that both of you seem quite generous to him," Elizabeth said. "I have no patience for this sort of thing."

[Ninkitty]

@Aisling@ZB1996
"I guess not everyone would. I'm hoping that he'll soon be settled in and less confused. Seeing as how he did have a few classes and still has no idea what's going on..." Ayaka did have the patience for it, but in her case, it could get to the point of annoying. She decided to give it a day or two before reevaluating her opinion on Jack. She got to the staircase while talking with her two friends. "Well I'll be right back," she said knowing that both of them are pretty much going to the same floor as her.

She asked the staircase to take her to the bedroom floor and went straight to her room. There, Ayaka was reminded of the mess Rikami and Dusk made. She also saw that all three pets seemed to be getting along, which was a good thing. "I guess all of you are hungry." That sentence was greeted by an excited frost wolf and a meowing shadow cat.

[ZB1996]

Elizabeth went back to her room for a moment, in order to check on her pets, just as they had said. Her arcane wolf Hesiod was roaming free in there, but had not done anything to create a disturbance. Her dragon Uriel remained quiet as usual.

Elizabeth fed them, and they were happy about them. Once they confirmed that they didn't need anything else from her, Elizabeth got ready for dinner. Then she headed back downstairs.

[Aisling]

The testing will now begin..... After the testing is over, we shall start another Level of Learning. More students will be allowed into the Academy.

[Aisling]

Lady Violetta mentally called to her students:
~It is time to go the Floating Spiral Stairway. Speak these words exactly but do not mimic me.
‘Floating Spiral Stairway, I am (your name). Please take me to the Exam Floor. Thank you.’
I shall be waiting here for you.~

[Ninkitty]

Ayaka was in her room playing with her pets when she heard Lady Violetta's message. It seemed that they now had to go to the exam floor, which meant it was test time. Playing with Skye, Rikami, and Dusk sort of took her mind off the fact that she would soon have to take a test. Now she was anxious about it, though Ayaka knew she hardly had problems taking any test. Calming herself down, she walked out of her room and toward the staircase.

She did as the headmistress instructed and waited for either further instruction or Elizabeth and Mystique once she got there.

[Aisling]

Mystique heard the announcement and sighed nervously.
"I want all of you to behave while I am in the Testing Room. I'll come back as soon as I can. Someone will drop by to feed you and check on you while I am gone. I love you but got to go." she spoke as she hugged and or petted each pet. She then went to the Exam Floor as instructed.

[Aisling]

“It is time for the new testing rooms. I wish both of you the best in these rooms. I'll tell what I can since I have yet to go in.

For your exam, you will have what is in the Virtual Backpack. All you need to do is to is to gather the following items by teleportation from your room:
Personal Items Carousel
a) Clothing
b) Hygiene
c) 2 extra pairs of boots
d) Books
e) Writing and drawing equipment
There will several other objects will be on another table that might help you on your journey. Read about them in the Exam PLTs before touching anything else. I do not know much about the Exam Room since I did not create them. The Creator has made them with the intent of nonbiased Exam. You will be graded on the how well you were able to handle 3 unknown situations and based on your own choices. Your score will be sent to me and to you only. You will find the score in a new folder called Academic Achievement. It will score you in percentages of what should have been done in each situation.
Before you go into the Testing Arena, I have a new cloak for each of you. It is designed to change its color and temperature according to your preference. You will need to use a new Mental Ability. This Ability will be called Personal Preference or PP. You will have time to practice before going into the Exam Room.

What you do is to imagine what you want. It will only be on things that has that spell on it.

I have a new

Equipment Belt

for you. The magic in the one you have is getting low. This belt is design to be lighter and more durable as well as rechargeable. You will have more pockets and each pocket will have a design on it for a fastener. On the table are 50 designs for you to look at and choose from. You may choose up to three designs. There are multiples of the

fasteners

use your imagination

so everyone should be able to get what you want.
It is time for you to go into the next room which is called The Choosing Room. While you are in there, you will take a cart and pick from the tables. You will take the cart to the next room where you will choose an individual room called The Preparation Room.

After you are finished there you will be choosing your Exam Room. From there you are on your own.” Lady Violetta finished her lecture.
