For a few years now, Armia had spent her days rotting in tutoring sessions and studying in the libraries. Now, at 17 years of age, Armia could officially begin her magical studies at Syux Academy.
She walked up to the Academy's gates early on in the morning. There was a certain energy in the air. All of the students currently making their way through the courtyard, up to the arena where the headmistress was set to give a speech, all looked like they were just as eager as Armia to get started.
Just about the only person who didn't was her brother, walking beside her.
"You could at least try to look a little more excited, Darien," Armia chided, glancing at her brother as they walked through the courtyard. "We're about to start our magical studies at the most prestigious academy in Syux. Show some dignity!"
Darien rolled his eyes, his tail flicking lazily behind him.
