Difficult Request

"Why do we need to talk to the principal?" Lexi asked Zach. They were already on the way to the principal's office, so it was a little late to ask, but it was better late than never. Lexi was a little hesitant.

The principal of the Academy for Summoners was pretty famously infamous, after all. He was old, older than any other active official or person of authority in the Empire. The Academy for Summoners wasn't the oldest Academy in the Empire, but the principal was its first and, so far, only principal. The principal had also been active before establishing the Academy, even if most of those records were vague for some reason.

Nowadays, there wasn't much actual information about the principal and his familiars. But that alone told volumes about his influence, not to mention the power he wielded. There were also rumors that the principal was whimsical, unpredictable, and eccentric.
