Sylph smiled back at Zmerr before she walked slowly away; the only sound that came from her was the rhythmic thump of her wooden stave. The dormitories were located just a few meters from her current location. There were only a few lights there were kept on... It was supposed to be sleeping time, but apparently, some latecomers just didn't catch the message. The corridors were a bit dark, and it was quite obvious that some students who had arrived earlier were already sleeping. Sylph smiled to herself as she thought of how peaceful the night was. The young wizard looked around as she noticed that there were still some new arrivals... Sylph had taken it upon herself to welcome these tardy asses... as if she was trying to repay a debt that she had owed to the school.

"[i]Ignem Tenebris, Calor Noctis, Beatus Calorem[/i]" Sylph mumbled as tiny orbs of flames spawned a few feet above the ground, illuminating the darkness of the corridors with a warm and welcoming flame. "That should avoid any stumbles." the wizard mumbled as she stood a few meters away from the gate, directing students and helping them with their queries. 

She was not technically paid to do welcoming procedures, but she felt lighter doing it. Well, soon, these freshmen would inevitably be shocked at how different this academy would do things. The rigid and strict schedule and standards are just one of the many things that make this academy attain its undisputed strength. Sylph felt her eyelids grow a little bit heavy, and she realized that she had not slept for about two days now... She was busy learning non-verbal casting that she had to stay up at night just to get a grasp of how it works. She didn't dare do a non-verbal magic without a teacher... it could cause disastrous results if done improperly.

"Come on... Come on... Hurry up.. You can gawk at the rich-ass amenities tomorrow. I'm getting sleepy here." Sylph mumbled impatiently to herself before smiling and answering some student queries.
