A new term, a new year of schooling and, the end of a summer break at least that's what it meant for most, for one, currently exhausted, individual it meant accesses to a wealth of more information once again. Because to Adam school not being in session didn’t mean it was time to slack off, for him the summer was a time to hone his skills and practice the art. It was frustration to him as well because he had to be more cautious about how far he pushed himself, there was no hall of healers to help put him back together if he stepped out of line, so it was when he polished his basics and build upon the foundations of his craft. So it he was quite eager to get back to schooling so he could once again continue to advance in his studies, not that anyone could tell that by looking at him.

Adam, as usual was one of the first to return to the academy, getting there bright and early compared to most, the reason being he hadn’t slept yet. He had spent the night, checking and double checking his supplies, verifying his schedule and getting an early start on reading the new books he purchased for his classes, in fact he was still reading now, nearly disregarding the Headmaster’s grandiose appearance, as he had felt the spell of the man coming only a moment before he arrived and was less caught off guard then the rest of the congregation. It was all old hat to Adam, on top of being a waste of his time, but there were some who enjoyed it or who needed the introduction so he would just grin and bear it while waiting for classes to start.

Closing his book with a snap he decided to look around and see if anyone caught his eye, Adam was feeling a bit restless, having read at least halfway through all of his books, and wanted a more interactive touch when it came to learning at the moment, so he wandered through the crowed listening and looking, hoping there was a discussion going on somewhere that had more to do then what people had done for the summer.

Adam grimaced as so far his search had been fruitless [i]‘This is going to be a long year’[/i] he thought.
