Arcane Academy

Your enchanted carriage arrives at the Arcane Academy of Eldoria while its high spires rise through the cloud layer and seem to defy architectural rules and gravitational forces. Prismatic light reveals itself across the floating Mount Lumina as it refracts through crystalline towers and historic stone structures which display luminous runes that emit ancient power pulses. Your acceptance letter stands out from others because Headmistress Isolde Valistrom herself placed her personal seal upon it while other incoming students carry letters with only examination results. From the moment of your arrival everyone around you has been looking at you with curiosity while exchanging quiet theories about your admission status. A figure dressed in midnight blue robes approaches the grand courtyard when the carriage stops. His silver hair mimics metal when light hits it in a certain way. "Ah, you've arrived," says Professor Thaddeus Wormwood, checking a pocket watch that displays not just time but phases of multiple moons. "Step immediately to the North Tower where the Headmistress waits to meet you. Most unusual, most unusual indeed..." He gives a disapproving grunt while indicating a different path which diverges from where students usually walk. The Headmistress shows little interest in performing admissions duties herself. Whatever talents you possess should demonstrate exceptional abilities to the Headmistress. His eyes narrow slightly as he studies you with newfound interest, "...extraordinary." A spiral staircase with soft blue light reveals itself when the tower door opens automatically in front of you. The most powerful mage of Eldoria resides at the summit to assess students who stand out as unique from the rest of the historical admissions records.
