It's Monday, which means we're back with the character introductions.
A major part of book 1 plays in the two locations of the elven Academy of Arcane Arts, located in the two major cities of the realm.
The academies are led by headmasters, high ranking mages who devote their lives to educate and train the younger generations. The academies specialize in magic only, so those without magic abilities will be transferred to other training facilities after the initial testing.
I want to introduce the two headmasters today:
Villyrd (male, on the right) is the headmaster of the academy in Irydrin Tower in Central Cathedral. He is in charge of the testing, where young elves gather to be tested for their magic abilities.
He is strict, but not unkind. He bases his decisions on what he seems best for the younglings, even if it means ripping apart close bonded siblings, as he has to with Ayalynneah and Althar.
He has mastered more than one element, his closest affinity he has with earth, though.
The academy in the Golden Spire in South Citadel (largest city in the realm and capitol of the humans) is even more specialized. While they train mages of all elemental affinities, they mainly focus on fire and sun magic.
Headmistress in the Golden Spire academy is Niuvee (female, on the left). Her affinity is earth as well and she has specialized in plant magic. She is very patient and kind, but strong headed and willing to go to extremes if neccessary.
And that's it for today, my dear readers. I hope you liked all the introductions so far. Next blog will be on Thursday, so stay tuned.
As always, I hope you have a great day or night, wherever you are.
