A large classroom was filled with students, their rumblings filling the room as they talked among themselves. Their teacher seemed to be late, but there was no official word yet of class being cancelled, so for now, many of them simply waited.<br/><br/>Suddenly, the door burst open, and in rushed a white haired woman who rushed behind the podium and shouted as loud as she could, "Everyone! May I have your attention please! That means sit down and be quiet!"<br/><br/>The students, aghast at the boldness of this woman, immediately fell silent. For some it may have been fear, for others simple curiosity, but as the noise level finally dropped, the woman cleared her throat and began to speak again. "I am sorry to say, that your usual professor is a little, well, tied up at the moment, so I shall be your substitute today. And today's topic is about misconceptions in history.  As we know, there are many schools of magic, from the more benign Divination, the deceitful Illusion, and the battle arts of Evocation! None of these are considered as inherently evil, yet there are many who use them to evil ends! But when I speak of Necromancy," she paused as a small gasp escaped from some of the students, "it is feared among the populace! But why? Are those who use it doomed to live out foul and selfish lives? Nay! It is mere propaganda! Retaliation against old enemies of the kingdom! I say no more! When used correctly, it can improve our every day lives, and..."<br/><br/>Her voice trailed off, a loud banging was heard at the door, just as a couple city guards burst through. One pointed at the woman behind the podium and shouted, "That's her! Get her!"<br/><br/>"Gotta go!" she exclaimed moments before running off in the other direction to escape her pursuers.
