  Three people are standing in the lecture hall as you burst in, ten minutes late. The man's half-frown just manages the transition to a half-smile as he turns toward you.
  
  "Ah, our first candidate in Arithmancy!" he says brightly. "I'm Morkan. The other members of your examining committee today are Teraboz" (the older woman nods in your direction) "and Berzia" (the younger woman gives you a tidy grin).
  
  Fumbling in his robes, Morkan produces some pieces of paper. "Here are your number sheet, task page, and spell list," he says, handing them to you.
  
  "Good luck!" he adds. Then he speaks an incantation while waving his arms in a complicated pattern. You feel yourself being translated.
  
  As you fade out of the lecture hall, you hear Teraboz mutter,
  "That's our first candidate in Arithmancy? Great. Just
  great."
  
  This austere space provides a quiet, distraction-free environment for examinations. Besides the sign on the wall and the slot below it, there is nothing in this room. Not even an exit.
  
  An awful screeching noise echoes through the space.
  
  "What in the name of Yottaboz is that sound?" yells Teraboz.
  
  "Sorry about that," Morkan's voice breaks through. "I just turned on the magical observation system in the testing area. It's quite new. There; that's better." The noise cuts out.

  "I think I saw the candidate flinch when you turned on the observation system," says Berzia. "Are you sure we can't be heard?"
  
  "Of course I'm sure," says Morkan. "O.K., so the Oversight Council's cuts to the academic budget meant I couldn't afford to hire a Technomancer to do the installation. Instead, I did it myself. I used to teach Technomancy, though, so it wasn't too difficult."
  
  "Um, when exactly was your last Technomancy course?" asks Teraboz.
  
  "Only a few decades ago," answers Morkan.

  "Academy entrance exam instructions state that we will not provide a spell's effect until the candidate demonstrates understanding of the spell. Are we really going to be breaking our own rules?!" asks Teraboz.
  
  "I think it's reasonable - at least at the beginning of the exam - to be a little flexible and help out the candidate," says Morkan. "After all, this is our first-ever entrance examination in Arithmancy."
  
  "Maybe we should just give the candidate the answers,"
  Teraboz grumbles.
  
  Morkan's voice comes from somewhere around you. "You already know what the STA spell does."

  The tinny voice says, "Congratulations! For reaching the third digit in a number sequence, you have earned five more points on your exam!" A new spell token materializes in your inventory.

  "I still think an Arithmancy examination is a bad idea," you hear Teraboz say.
  
  "I know. I'm not happy about it, either," Morkan replies. "But you heard what Assistant Vice Dean Merlena said: If we're going to attract more paying students in today's competitive environment, we've got to offer more areas of specialization. Besides, it comes straight from the Oversight Council. There's nothing we can do about it."

  1. This examination requires that you reproduce the numbers on your number sheet by casting appropriate sequences of basic spells in Arithmancy.
  
  2. Additional spells will be provided as you make progress through the exam.
  
  3. An Arithmancy spell's effect will only be provided on the spell list once you prove you understand the spell. For the purposes of this exam, successfully using a spell to make progress on a number constitutes proof that you understand that spell.
  
  4. Completing tasks listed on your task page will also earn you points on your exam.
  
  5. No outside spell books, scrolls, potions, wands, or other aids are allowed in the examination area.
  
  6. When done with your exam, please cast the END spell to leave the examination area.
