Manners are Important young sir,I am Professor De'Nown, and one is at his strongest when he is able to admit to and apologize for his mistakes...The BaGua Circle huh?"he mutters and then moves his finger through the air over the table... Leaving a glowing green line in its wake, the symbol drawn flashes brghtly and then you are sitting on the ground in an exact replca of the spot you remembered.
"Master Hito has not changed in the past few years has he? still favors the Ceriin Black with a hint of peach syrup?" The professor pours tea from a familliar stone pot into cracked old pottery and offers you one.
Lang nods at the tea You have been to the sky temples? it is very rare that outsiders are permitted in the temple but if you were a friend of Master Hito I guess you were an exception then?
Lang smiles at the circle just like at the temple. a looks around a tear starts to form.
Are we really here or is this all just magic?
Lang takes a sip of the tea, this particular flavor despite being Master Hito's favorite Lang never cared for it but out of respect for his master he would still drink it but extra slow and usually never finished. sometimes I wonder if Master Hito knew the truth

"They are quite majestic places, I traveled there to learn some of their magics, Sadly I did not have the gift..."
As the scent of the peach trees reaches your nostrils the Professor nods.
"We are here, The magic I invoked has transported us to the Circle, But we cannot interact with the people who are here. They cannot see us, we cannot see them. And I thought you needed to see your home again, You see... Teachers often know more than they let on..."
Salis bows in return to Lang. After Lang leaves. "He's a good kid. So much potential. Someday I believe I will be proud to have met him." Looking back to Ori. "Miss Reading, I do hope you are feeling better after your ordeal. If there is any assistance you will need don't hesitate to ask. I will be happy to assist any way I can."
"Ummm....thanks. Sorry about earlier. I can get very emotional at times, and I had a pretty bad temper even before I was bound to the nature spirit...no redhead jokes please," she said with a crooked smile, a dimple appearing on the left side but none on the right. "I'm just going to go spend the rest of the day in the meditation classroom trying to get a handle on that," she sighed, her smile changing to a grimace.
"They are quite majestic places, I traveled there to learn some of their magics, Sadly I did not have the gift..."As the scent of the peach trees reaches your nostrils the Professor nods.

Lang takes another sip of the tea finding it a bit hot he makes a tiny wirlwind around the cup drawing some of the heat out.
He then takes another sip and smiles satisfied at the temperature.
Master De'Nown, I don't think you realize how much I appreciate what you have done. Lang glances off to the side as if he saw something but there is nothing there, perhaps he is hiding something.
Lang actually finishes his tea (probably the first time) Lang stands and asks his host have you ever walked the circle? would you like to learn?
"Certainly Young One, I would always like to learn..."
He dumps his tea back into the pot,
"Awful Stuff, some of the worst flavored tea I have ever had... I'll stick with my Earl Grey, leave your dark bitter peachy tea to the Monks..."
The professor rises and picks up his cane, eager to learn something new from the knowledgable youngster
"Meditation is a grand thing I have to admit I end up meditating a lot myself, but what I do the most to keep my anger at bay is think about what I would be doing in there situation. Of course even using both I ended up leaving my order before I broke there vows of pacifism. So I might not be the best person to give advice on keeping calm." His facial expression didn't show a lot of emotion, but he did seem to let a small smirk out. As though he was trying to lighten her mood.
"Ah, I see. You already have no small skill in bending the earth. In that case, I suppose we should try a few things out then, to see if you can replicate the abilities I have."
Aandal makes a fist in front of himself, palm down, and slowly raises it as a gargantuan elemental slowly rises from the ground.
Wyrd watches closely, "The way you do that, the motions you use, they are more like what I use. Hmmm. I find it to be less bending the earth than it is that I am a part of the earth. If I want to raise a wall, I simply find that place where I am the earth, then I raise a part of myself like raising my hand." When the elemental is fully formed, Wyrd attempts to duplicate the task, he manages to raise a small shape that looks like an elemental, but the animating spark is missing and he simply has a statue.
Lang luaghs a bit but covers his mouth forgetting others cannot see him not wanting to cuase nay disrespect.
Lang teaches him the stances and the steps. showing him the graceful movements but he slows it down a bit considering his student's age but Lang does not mention that.
No you stand opposite of me, face as so Lang helps him position his waist and legs.
Now put your arms like so holding his arms and hands in the first form.
now we walk like so Lang starts slow to show the proper foot placing.

Though his age is extremely advanced and he is quite... plump... The professor is light on his feet and a fast learner, and after twenty minutes he says
"thank you young one, I will not forget your lesson. But we should get back..." The cafeteria is once more around them as students start to come into the room. "cant have them knowing of your home... It is quite exclusive" he says with a wink
Balamor slowly wakes and looks at the clock, "Its twelve thirty," he says slowly, not getting it until several seconds later. "ITS TWELVE THIRTY!"
Though his age is extremely advanced and he is quite... plump... The professor is light on his feet and a fast learner, and after twenty minutes he says"thank you young one, I will not forget your lesson. But we should get back..."

Lang bows to Master De'Nown Thank you for the little visit home it is...I thank you
Lang hurries off to get his and Sun's lunch before the lines get to long.
as he leaves he passes by his new professor friend I usually have lunch with my friend Sun by the willow tree in the garden, you are welcome to join us sometime

He cradles a steaming cup as Lang walks by...
"Maybe some other day... I have a class right after lunch... They might not take me seriously if they see me learning from a young man and a primate..."He grins to show he is joking and waves Lang on to his Babboon friend
"Tyrrin, you just described, eyes clouded over and glowing, what your dreams were about. Are you saying you have no recollection of this?"
"I... no. I don't remember that." she sounds truly frightened now, for the first time since Ryo has met her. "Not a thing Headmaster. What's happening to me? Are these Seer powers?" she asks shakily, unsure, vulnerable.
Ehos continues to hide, blissfully unaware of the distruption he is causing in her classmate. He shifts ever so slightly to get comfortable, causing the grass to shake noiselessly.
Sadie nodded as she tried to catch her breath. That had been a terrifying experience. There wasn't a lot her forcefields could do about something like that....she was going to have to find a way to change that. She didn't trust Kaze not to take cheap shots for revenge.
Kaze was unconscious, bleeding from his mouth and nose. As the blood rolls down his throat, he gags. The wards detect this as choking and whisk him away to the infirmary, leaving only a few spots of his blood spattered on the floor.
"Possibly. I had trouble controlling my visions when I was younger too. There is nothing wrong with you, Tyrrin."
"Meditation is a grand thing I have to admit I end up meditating a lot myself, but what I do the most to keep my anger at bay is think about what I would be doing in there situation. Of course even using both I ended up leaving my order before I broke there vows of pacifism. So I might not be the best person to give advice on keeping calm." His facial expression didn't show a lot of emotion, but he did seem to let a small smirk out. As though he was trying to lighten her mood.
"Order?" she asked, her eyebrows raised curiously. "Priest or monk? Relapsed of course," she adds, nose crinkling again as she grinned.
She studied him for a moment, biting her lip. "Well, I'll say this for you," she said with a wink, "you're not charming....trust me, that's a compliment."
She pushed her hair off of her face, in a well-practiced impatient gesture. She grimaced again.
"It's too bad they don't have mirrors in the meditation room....I could use one to wrestle my hair back into submission..."
She hopped down off of the bed. "Well, I'd say it was a pleasure meeting you, but the circumstances could certainly have been better. Hopefully I won't provide any more disastrous disruptions to your class in future."
Balamor gathers his things for class and rushes out of his room to get to class before he's too late.
Tyrrin calms down considerably, though she's still a little shaky. "The lack of sleep has me a bit on edge Headmaster. Do you have any recommendations then? How did you eventually get control? I already know what the dreams mean. The Empire is out there, and it's a threat. I've already started preparing."
Tybalt looks over from his perch to see where Jaiye had nestled down. As close as she looked to a dog and as good as his hiding spot was, screw the pre-test theres a damsel in distress Tybalt shifts down to her as quietly as possible. He whispers "hey what's wrong?"
She was barely able to keep herself from jumping when he shifted, years of training helping her to remember to stay still instead of jumping up. Not to mention the fear of further humiliation. At least telepathy was quiet.
::There's this boy that I like....but he likes someone else. I errr.....I got a little territorial around her last night and he got mad. I know he likes her and not me, but it's not so easy to accept and I'd like to keep my distance for a while I guess. At least until I can keep from growling at his girlfriend....But he's sitting in the grass just a few feet that way and it's really hard to ignore him when I can smell him right over there....::
" Ardiente bellows, causing the class to fall into a quiet. "Great Sun in the sky! I loathe the cold!" Ardiente continues to swear and curse as David works away at the curse. Despite the fact that he seemed to be unharmed, he could still feel the chill. Once David has removed the curse, he seems somewhat less... vocal, and instead simply swirls fire around him again, the warmth washing away the chill. "Much better." he says after a few seconds spent enveloped in fire.
Vai was in third period History, diligently taking notes. This stuff might be important one day, you never know.

Dave lights his hand on fire as he raises one eyebrow "you alright?"
After the bell rings, Fei gathers up his things and goes to his third period Advanced Drawing and Painting class.
Other than an odd, knowing smile from the instructor regarding the...theme of his recent creations, the class proceeds smoothly. ;)
"Order?" she asked, her eyebrows raised curiously. "Priest or monk? Relapsed of course," she adds, nose crinkling again as she grinned.
"I was a monk, but that was another life.
She studied him for a moment, biting her lip. "Well, I'll say this for you," she said with a wink, "you're not charming....trust me, that's a compliment."
She pushed her hair off of her face, in a well-practiced impatient gesture. She grimaced again.
"It's too bad they don't have mirrors in the meditation room....I could use one to wrestle my hair back into submission..."
Well if I was trying to make courting gestures, I believe would feel slightly hurt, but even if i was I'm not really sure if I would know the right way to start here. If I was to take the example of past acquaintances I believe it would be taken as an insult here.
She hopped down off of the bed. "Well, I'd say it was a pleasure meeting you, but the circumstances could certainly have been better. Hopefully I won't provide any more disastrous disruptions to your class in future."
Trust me you were not the disruption. I believe the stoning of me by my books, was the culprit of the disturbance in my own class. I believe I shall stop carrying so many with me at one time. It was a pleasure however to get to be introduced to you. I shall leave you to your meditation. I believe I have a class coming up, I should attend to. Perhaps next we talk it will not be in the infirmary. With a bow Salis turns and leaves heading to his classroom. Ready for his second class of Magical Theory.
Balamor enters the Close Weapon class, "I'm not too late am I?"
Wyrd watches closely, "The way you do that, the motions you use, they are more like what I use. Hmmm. I find it to be less bending the earth than it is that I am a part of the earth. If I want to raise a wall, I simply find that place where I am the earth, then I raise a part of myself like raising my hand." When the elemental is fully formed, Wyrd attempts to duplicate the task, he manages to raise a small shape that looks like an elemental, but the animating spark is missing and he simply has a statue.
"Ah, I understand. This is no ordinary elemental. It is more of an unthinking construct that carries out simple commands. There are other forms you might know."
With that, Aandal turns, rotates his fist palm-up, and extends his fingers pointing to the ceiling. Several yards from the elemental, which stands still, a bunch of spikes erupt from the ground.
"Try that. It is much more like making a wall than making a creature."
Tyrrin calms down considerably, though she's still a little shaky. "The lack of sleep has me a bit on edge Headmaster. Do you have any recommendations then? How did you eventually get control? I already know what the dreams mean. The Empire is out there, and it's a threat. I've already started preparing."
"They are good preparations too, if you'll forgive my watching them. My control came with practice, a focus, and... a little brother who needed me to become a full fledged Seer so I could take care of us." He pauses. "It occurs to me the only difference between us when it comes to control is that you don't have a focus."
i... uh... nevermind. adon starts off.
You get past a number off rooms killing the few thinks they tried to stop you, and passing the rooms you could see where traps, then you come to a room that's full off water, there is a very string current pushing you back Sim DC45, can you get past.
After the bell rings, Fei gathers up his things and goes to his third period Advanced Drawing and Painting class.
Other than an odd, knowing smile from the instructor regarding the...theme of his recent creations, the class proceeds smoothly. ;)
Johnny is in the class with you. s/He just calls it arts and crafts
Dave lights his hand on fire as he raises one eyebrow "you alright?"
"Yeah, sorry. Language, I know. I just. Hate. Cold."
"They are good preparations too, if you'll forgive my watching them. My control came with practice, a focus, and... a little brother who needed me to become a full fledged Seer so I could take care of us." He pauses. "It occurs to me the only difference between us when it comes to control is that you don't have a focus."
"A focus? I assume this is something like a spell casting focus? I imagine it would have to be a little more specialized." Tyrrin is back to her logical, calculating self. She notes the concession the Headmaster just gave: it was one of the few times that Ryo had ever spoken about his past. A indication of trust.
It was all so... strange. Vare could sense the magic in the air, it was everywhere. A few beings passed him in the hallway, though he couldn't be sure exactly what they were. One being shone so brightly he had to look away. So much uniqueness here. If only the walls didn't keep changing colour every time he looked away. The school kept changing. I wonder if it's safe.
"What do you think, Reva?" he says to the immaterial creature following along beside him. "The entropy here is strange... I feel like my visions are only going to get worse if I stay here. There's so much happening, even with all the students in the classes. Are you sure this is wise?"
"Listen," the silken voice of Reva answers. "You can't survive on conjured food forever. You need to find somewhere where people don't think you are a lunatic. Don't look at me that way. You need somewhere stable. If not here, where?"
"Alright, but can you scare off those chickens following us? I feel like they're hunting me or something."
Vare was meandering casually around the hallways. He had seen a couple people pass, but they hurried on. Strangely dressed men with poorly kept hair weren't something most people wanted to deal with, especially with all the stress of the first day school. Especially since the man seemed to be muttering to thin air. Oddly enough, a few white chicken feathers fall out of the air behind him, dropping away unnoticed.
"A Seer focus would be similar to a spellcasting focus, yes. I'm sure you've heard of Seers other than myself who make use of items when looking at the past, present, or future." He holds up a deck of cards. "I'm rather infamous for mine."
"But a focus could be something other than an item. I once met a women who danced in sand and then read the steps she left behind to divine the future. Then there was the man who painted. You just need to find something you enjoy, perhaps several things, and figure out how to turn it into a focus for your visions."
Curiosity getting the better of them, the Antairus Trio take off the speech amulets and whisper quickly in Sirrocan to each other, deciding on a plan.
"You see the Dreamlands?" It asks, though you get the feeling it's more of a statement than a question.
Ace curses a few times and then turns back the way he came. He retraces their steps then focuses himself, looking things over again
A few yards away, where the tunnel slopes down and the cieling meets the water, you can barely see a hole being obscured by moss. It looks large enough to fit through, and the moss appears to have been moved recently.
¨Uhhh... learn new things...¨ roel gets to that room again, and when he winds up in the salts he casts caystic eruption, because blowing it up solves all problems.
As you fill the room with causticEruption, it counters the salts, have two rounds to get to the door and get it open, when you get to it its 1 round, after spell casting you find it locked, The door is made of Glass as is the room.

"Well I've got just the thing for that." He gives a slight smile andd offers a paw.
If you take it you both appear in the library near the comic books. And he says "the best part is we're not supposed to be found anyways."If not then he says "I've got an idea trust me."
Johnny is in the class with you. s/He just calls it arts and crafts

Dave lights his hand on fire as he raises one eyebrow "you alright?""Yeah, sorry. Language, I know. I just. Hate. Cold."
"heh, don't worry about the language blame it on the curse making you stupid or something, to me warmth and coolness are one and the same, equally comforting in their own way, both my friend as they are not separate entities but two halves of the same whole," he shakes his head "look at me getting all philosophical, in any case unless I am mistaken, class is almost over, you have surprising versatility for one with such a limited repitoir, what was that, I could see that it was some kind of ki ability, but I couldn't tell what exactly you were doing" Dave seems really relaxed as he says this, you get the fealing that if you said 'secret' or something like that it wouldn't faze him.
Johnny is in the class with you. s/He just calls it arts and crafts
Confused - the order of the list states the class order each day?
That was Johnny 1st P class not second?? I think
Fact is Johnny kind of dos not follow the timetable, he just wanders into classes he likes the look of hehe good luck trying to get Johnny to stick to a Timetable.

Spoiler:Confused - the order of the list states the class order each day?did not know it was that ridged?
So your saying no? I could shift classes,
Fact is Johnny kind of dos not follow the timetable, he just wanders into classes he likes the look of hehe
Anywhoo - not saying no, just trying to clarify. And now off to breakfast (^-^)
Leaving the classroom to avoid a fouled up relationship? Surely the teacher couldn't have missed that! He didn't even try to hide when he gave away jaiye's position
Renkai continues his waiting, watching, and hiding... Not saying anything...

adon doesnt swim well, and he would rather not drown. he does something odd- he doesnt try. he sits down abd waits.
