[B]Jeanne d'Luc[/b] -- Mirrors

[@ Raptra]

Meticulously as ever, the Paladin watched onward as Vera went about her work. Studying the girl's will, focus, and ability all simultaneously while she stood at the ready. Soon before long, the result rose to both her expectations and satisfaction as two mirrors, each portraying a perfect image of their opposite side, came into view. 

It was very much akin to how Jax had ordered the same of her years ago. Just like her predecessor, she was watching for potential, and of the three she had seen, this girl's gifts were much like her own when she was under trial. Mirror-like illusions, that she had used for rampant mischief before she had entered the school. 

[color=f6989d]"Well done."[/color] Came a neutral response to start as she slowly applauded the girl and her efforts. [color=f6989d]"Welcome to Basic Light Theory,"[/color] She continued, walking between the mirrors to study them more closely than before. With her gauntlet laden hands still folded neatly behind her back, Jeanne continued forward until she took hold of a ladder rung. 

One last glimpse over her shoulder subjected Vera to the burning sapphire of her gaze, and a few final words of advice.[color=f6989d] "The coming months will be among the most difficult tribulations you will ever face. Ready yourself. For it will be just as rewarding as it is miserable."[/color]

[color=f6989d]"Be at the southern fields upon the first light with bells on."[/color]

Sharply ascending the ladder once more, the young teacher dusted off her hands once at the top and glimpsed about. What more would this day hold? Three new students, new prospects of light. Each of them with unique potential no less, and each of them needing further sharpening and honing. Her father wasn't kidding when he told her that her work was cut out for her. 

With a final sigh upon a deep breath, she glanced over to the ongoing trials and muttered a few words to herself aloud. 

[color=f6989d]"So it begins."[/color]
