Back to the Academy! Part 1

"I see you are wearing your school uniform today." Helen said as she sat down herself to eat her breakfast. "Are you planning on attending classes today?"

"I was thinking it might be a good idea." Dax said. "Although I don't know what classes I would actually attend, seeing how there are no classes for class F…"

"Still, it might be good to go." Helen said. "The people there get all hung up on status and classes, but there are a few that don't care about any of that stuff. Like your friend Fey."

"He got called into work early." Helen said. "Some kind of emergency."

"What kind?" Dax asked.

"You know he wasn't allowed to tell me that dear." Helen explained. "I am certain it's no big deal whatever it is."
