Nothing Ventured, Nothing Gained

As a third year Student undergoing the Mage curriculum, Kai had already seen his fair share of wonders and sights that would leave many younger Students in awe. And he had decided to major in the House of Illusions, so even among his own peers—he had that canny flair with glamor, dramatic and showmanship.

He was never going to be the Mage that threw fireballs or thunderbolts, but he was more on utility, wonders and espionage. And this was one of the few times that he was astounded by someone in awhile as he kept his expression blank as he watched the younger Student work on the entrance to the Secret Library.

This was the newcomer known as Han.

One out of the two students that achieved the feat of not only entering in the middle of the semester, which perhaps could have been due to having external influence—but also doing favorably well on the Test Trial.
