Vincent was looking around as this conversation with this other Arcana Alumni took place.
"Well..." He said speaking up. "I need mentoring on the act of battle, of thinking then reacting. I know magecraft, I just can't seem to focus on the right things at the right time." Vincent sighed and slumped to the floor.

"I'm a failure, but I want to enter this tournament to prove to myself, that I can do what I set out to do. So Alysis I will pay you for your time, if you mentor me into becoming a badass. Sound fair?" 

"Fair, you sound like a wuzz."Said a voice from the other end of the dorm. 
"I think that was the point Ella." Said a voice from the opposite end of the multi bedded dorm room. "Plus we came to check out the winner, not her groupies."
