His father gestured toward the central building. "That's the Hall of Magi, where you'll find the instructors and receive your test instructions. Remember, Ego, the challenges you face here will not only test your magical prowess but also your character."
Entering the Hall of Magi, Ego marveled at the intricate stained glass windows depicting legendary wizards casting powerful spells. The air inside hummed with a mix of ancient incantations and the excited whispers of students.
An elderly mage, adorned in elaborate robes, approached them. "Ah, Ego, the legacy of House Aetherbane continues. Your test awaits in the Chamber of Trials. May your magic be true and your heart steadfast."
With a respectful nod, Ego followed the instructor through winding corridors adorned with magical tapestries and floating candles. The journey led them to the Chamber of Trials, a vast arena with an enchanted ceiling that mimicked the night sky, stars shimmering above.
