Life at the Academy seems to have settled down. Ever since Untermauler allowed me to enroll, everyone was like LOOK AT THE FAIRY! YOU’RE SO TINY! TELL US ABOUT THE OTHERWORLD! They helped themselves to poking me and grabbing my wings.
Usually students aren’t allowed to use magic against other students, but given my size, Glaucia suggested I use Shocking Grasp to remind my classmates that I’m not a toy. Sanipkur looks the other way when students cry to her.
I thought this world would give me a chance to grow in peace, but every day gets a little darker. That’s when I noticed a guy standing in the corner. There was a clear distance between him and the others, so I moved closer.
“Hi, I’m Hilde.”
“Cuan.”
We both kept to ourselves and the extra space gave me a chance to work, study, and build connections at my own pace.
Thanks Cuan.
