It won't be long before she can step into resonance with water and she'll do that before going to bed, having people know she got into such a prestigious school with connections wouldn't bode well with her parents and so she had to at least have the minimum resonance required before starting her class tomorrow
now to read those rules carefully
actually there aren't that many rules to begin with, only ten
1. do not in any way destroy nature
2. no student is allowed out of their premises after midnight
3. a student is only allowed one chance at a relationship during their entire learning experience at the academy unless said students in the relationship have found their soulmate
about that one, reading the books in the library, I brushed up on Elvin nature and I found that elves very much value loyalty in a relationship and cheating would get you scorned and isolated, if you're unlucky and it reached the King's ears there's even a possibility of banishment
yeah, that serious
4. no stealing
5. no killing, not even an animal
I almost laughed seeing that one, good news is, most insects around here like to stay away from the elves so unless done deliberately, animals won't provoke anyone as long as they're not provoked
6. no fighting on school premises
7. no foul language
8. no vandalism
9. clothes worn should not be provocatively revealing
10. no excessive bullying
the last rule has me wondering if bullying is aloud in small amounts
anyway let's get down to business
she walked out of her room and sat in the shallow waters of the pond and started working on her resonance with it
water unlike earth, was calmly indifferent, it refused to give you an iota of attention and if you lacked patience you would be going around in circles before it acknowledged you
being silent or trying to coax the elements of water hadn't gotten her anywhere so she was trying different methods to resonate with water
at this moment, she was going to try something shed never done before, see when she was watching a TV show the night before coming to the boarding school, she saw a fairy singing to water and a thought struck her, maybe she could sing to at least try and bring out some emotions with these indifferent elements so here goes, well, everything
she started to hum a little melody that emerald would always hear Rosslyn humming, it was a calming happy sound and it unconsciously made her smile
she hummed the sing immersing herself in the memories of when emerald stayed with Rosslyn, the times when she'd come back from school and they'd sit and chat about whatever happened during their time away from each other, or when they got into pillow fights after watching a horror movie so they wouldn't have to think about the scary things that could keep them awake at night
Kim realized through those memories that emerald and Rosslyn were very close and Rosslyn wasn't such a bad person, almost child like, but they're were moments were she seemed lonely and emerald was like her little night light that chased away the darkness in her life
while immersed in her memories she didn't realise that little strands of water were flowing around her, it almost seemed like they were dancing to her tune, gracefully twirling happily around her
it wasn't until a little stream caressed her cheek like a little child wanting attention that she noticed her breakthrough
a beautiful smile graced her face when she saw the little streams around her, the red faint light shimmering around the strands of water made her feel accomplished in a way
"congratulations Kim" system said
"thank you, now I guess I won't have to deal with unnecessary trouble over going through the back door huh"
"no, you won't" system said happily
lately he has been showing emotions unlike the cold mechanical system she first met, and that was a good thing, it would be boring to have to deal with an emotionless voice in her head
having achieved her aim, she went to sleep peacefully
the alarms sounded and Kim groggily dragged herself out of the very comfortable bed
did she mention she hated mornings
because she did
ugh
she lazily dragged her body to the bathroom and took a very soothing warm shower, it was like the water was caressing her it made her feel so comfortable she almost didn't want the shower to end but she had to force herself to close the tap cause if she stayed any longer she'd be late for her first class
what she didn't know was that her resonance with any of the elements she'd resonated with, be it earth or water, was so pure that even without trying, the elements wanted to be near her and that didn't happen to just anyone, the elements wouldn't accept not even pure elves whole heartedly like that, but that's for another time
she randomly chose a jean jumpsuit from her closet and grabbed her bag before leisurely walking to the big brick building to look for her class
looking at the class schedule for the day, archery being the first lesson,
she walked to the back of the building where she found a few scattered elves in groups of twos or threes chatting and some playing around,
some serious ones had already started practicing with not even one among them hitting the bullseye, hilarious, I thought elves according to the stories were natural born archers
she walked to a flat rock a few steps away from the training field and when she reached near the rock amazingly without even trying the rock had already shifted itself in a shape of a sofa, but without the cushions
if someone had been noticing this spectacle, they'd be shocked, but the person who performed this action without even trying took it as something normal, like an everyday thing that wasn't shocking at all,
she dropped her bag on the ground and again the earth shifted to make a small table, she made herself comfortable opened a book on resonance with water to read but alas asking for a little peace was just impossible huh
sigh...
