Sure enough, the group that assembled on the podium turned out to be... special. From the sounds of it, though, Anaise wasn’t the only one that felt that way. Maybe she was just judging them on their appearances - a demon, two barely-dressed dark elves, and even a pixie - but they were making it really hard<i>not</i>to. At least the year would be interesting, if anything... and it wasn’t like<i>everyone</i>was crazy. Although there was a guy in full-blown wizard robes... were they supposed to wear robes? Maybe everyone<i>was</i>crazy.<br/><br/>She followed the teacher with the rest of the class, shaking her head to herself at the shortness of her skirt, but was distracted by the school building before long. It was gigantic - and what was ‘Limbo’? She’d barely had enough time to take it all in before they reached the small classroom. She took a desk near the middle of the room, since she wasn’t really sure she could deal with having a face full of upskirt for the entire year.<br/><br/>At least the room had a nice view of the mountains.<br/><br/>As luck would have it, the demon decided to sit down next to her. She wasn’t really sure how to react to demons, really. She hadn’t ever met one in person before. He introduced himself to her as Sara, although she wasn’t sure she’d caught the name right. Was Sara a guy’s name, too?<br/><br/>“I’m Anaise,” she said, returning his smile as best she could. He was a little bit scary, and she wasn’t sure if he meant to be or not. “I... make things that aren’t real.” That probably wasn’t the best way to describe it, but she wasn’t really good enough at magic yet to call them proper illusions.<br/><br/>She stared at Miss Dyr as she spoke, not really believing what she was hearing.<i>‘Odds are most of you will be expelled or flunk within a few months anyway’?</i>What kind of teacher<i>said</i>that? What kind of teacher<i>dressed</i>like that? And the lollipop...<br/><br/><i>Wait...</i>Had she heard that right? Co-ed dorms,<i>and</i>they didn’t assign roommates? So she had to<i>find</i>a roommate? She glanced around the room in a little bit of a panic, her green eyes wide. Of the girls, the only one who didn’t seem<i>completely insane</i>was... the one with cat ears. She was even dressed properly. She’d have to ask sooner or later. Knowing her luck, she’d probably be too late by then. It was too bad she wasn’t a telepath instead of an illusionist.<br/><br/>Then the wizard abruptly stood up and slammed his hands down on his desk. Anaise put her head down on the desk and sighed. She was doomed.<div class="messageTextEndMarker"> </div>
