<strong>Location:</strong>Classroom > Outside<br/><strong>Tagging:</strong>All<br/><br/>One of the nice things about living in a supernatural society was that the weather forecast was nearly perfect.  Science could be iffy over the course of the entire week, and a single Scion could still call down a rainstorm out of nowhere as a prank, but everyone knew what to expect for the next day due to simple reporting.<br/><br/>Luxury areas could take that concept to an entirely new level.  Even on Honolulu, advertisements for a handful of the five star hotels talked about how weather magic ensured that it only rained at night and never during the day, ensuring that you didn’t lose a day on your expensive vacation to a downpour.<br/><br/>The university had no such extravagance.  It was raining today, and it would rain the entire day.  It left the beach empty, and everyone was just a little grumpier for the lack of the sun.<br/><br/>However, that wasn’t what held the rumors and conversation today.  The central volcano, visible in the distance past the forest, had black smoke coming from it.  Common knowledge stated that the volcano was extinct, but in a supernatural world, anything could happen.<br/><br/>Two girls walked past, chatting and keeping their umbrellas held high, “-that Kimo had thrown some kids into the volcano to appease his father, Tānemahuta.”<br/><br/>“She would say something like that,” responded the other with stark disbelief.  “Tānemahuta is the Polynesian god of light and land.  Volcanic sacrifice is Pele.  Why would Tānemahuta want the volcano to erupt?”<br/><br/>“Duh!” answered the first.  “Climate change.  More lava means more land, and-“<br/><br/>Unless the group followed, the two were moving out of earshot, with the wind and rain making it harder to hear.<br/><br/>It’s not hard to find a safe and dry place.  Not far from the beach are a few tables, each enveloped by an oversized umbrella.  On sunny days, it wasn’t common to find these tables crowded and rapidly claimed, but few people were interested in sitting outside in the rain, even under shade.
