**ADDIE'S POV**
As the days slowly started to move on, I noticed that there were a lot more people at the Academy than there usually were. I noticed men and women that were milling about the corridors, in the library, and other places around the campus. And none of these people seemed to have much of a purpose at the moment.
After hearing about the mentors from the headmaster, I had started to look around and pay attention more than I used to. I was able to see the mentors that were already here. Even if I hadn't realized it before I had actually seen them around the school. There weren't many of them, but they were there.
These people that I was seeing now, the new ones that I had never seen before, were a mystery to me. What were they here for? It's not like it was last year, when I needed to have extra security, and the headmaster had hired more people to come here and help protect me. So, why are these new people here now?
