"Welcome To Fee Hol University, I know you don't know where in the world you are, or why you actually thought it was a good Idea to walk through a giant swirling purple thing, in fact I dont know why any of you did either, except for you humans and Trempor, you always seem to think its a good idea, anyways back on topic. Welcome to your school, and your home for Some 300 days, honestly I don't keep track, I wont lie to you about that. I could go on for hours, and I'm very sure some of you would actually stay to listen as I have some interesting stories to tell, but luckily for those of you who don't break any rules you wont ever hear them, but as the principle I have to go over a few rules.
You have to follow the general clothing etiquette of your people, Trempor you have to wear pants. Humans I know how much you can get away with not wearing, only here, women, you have the same rights as the men so be free. My fellow Satyrs, I have nothing really to say to you, even if I did you probably would ignore me. Mulders you basically live in your armor. Seekers keep those tops on. The rest of you, I won't try to come up with something to connect you to.
As far as magic goes you are only allowed to use it if a member of the school staff gives you permission to, if I see a fireball being flung at an ex boyfriend or ex girlfriend you will be in big trouble.
No fighting, you can fight in the arena, its actually encouraged in there.
I would say no Public Displays of Affection but I know that would be ignored, so I will settle for no intercourse, you want to meet up with someone over summer I suggest finding a portal to Traverse, you will be in for a shock though, it is a very busy place. Hint the portal is Silver.
No killing of other students, that rule follows with the rule about fighting, though murder is not approved of.
Those are basically all the rules I will go over, you have handbooks waiting for you on your beds or whatever it is you will be sleeping on or in.
The only other thing I really have to go over is the fact that you will have to stay on this planet unless given approval by a teacher. As you are all freshmen here you will be given a place to sleep at the castle, if, and when, you return next year, if you choose to spend summer vacation on your boring world, you can choose from several different places to stay.
The last thing that I remember that I need to go over is the school tournaments, there will be competitions between the four school houses, Blue Serpent, Green Turtle, Red Lion, and Silver Wolf. Both Athletically and Academically, which decides which house gets a bigger cut of funding for the next year. There will also be a competition between schools, there are three other plains of existence that have schools like ours, all together there are forty two schools, we all compete against each other within our own plain of existence, the top three teams from each plain go to a match in Traverse, if you think your going this year I'm sorry you probably shouldn't get your hopes up, most senior graduates haven't even managed tickets to one of these matches. But that tournament excludes one thing, Arena fighting, which is where a separate tournament comes in, as your principle I have to advise you it is an extremely dangerous tournament with only one victor, if you don't like the idea of a Necromancer bringing you back to life, and you dont want permanent scaring on your body then do not enter the contest or join Arena fighting, as a second place champion I say to all of you brave enough to join, good luck, don't turn your back on anyone, enjoy it while you can, pick a mature name, and don't give anyone the chance to surrender.
On a lighter note, unless shes is in a bad mood, I hand you over to Miss. Tether."
The person who said all of this was a Satyr with brown hair, spiraled ram horns, a long goatee who was wearing a green striped vest and circular spectacles. As he stepped aside a Seeker woman with Golden hair, golden skin, golden eyes, and a very short red sun dress, stepped to the podium that the principle had just vacated and smiled before speaking.
"Most of what he said is allowed to be said so I will resist my lecturing of him for latter, as for now, I am Miss. Tether, your councilor and hopefully your friend. I hope that you all have a wonderful year here at Fee Hol University." She paused long enough to snap her fingers, as she did levitating brown paper packages began to make their way to different freshmen, which was quite a few. "These parcels have your schedule and your school team Spirit ware, which is simply a jacket with a picture of the animal of your team with your team name under it and your name on the back, as the year goes your coat will grow with you, it will also begin to gain new decor like sports awards and academic achievements and things of the sort.
You have all probably had long days, but for now you have only one task ahead of you, don your coat, put your schedule in a pocket, dont worry it will fit, the pockets bigger on the inside, and group up in your school teams, as you can no doubt tell to your left and right there are a total of four teams, each marked by your team name and sigil, you are to go stand with your teams head teachers, James Queen, a Human from the Traverse is the head of Silver Wolf. Serra Angel is the head of Red Lion, Syren Curry is head of Blue Serpent, and Jacob Harrisford is head of Green Turtle. When you arrive at your Teams banner toss your waste into the brazier by it, this is mainly just to prevent a mess." She paused again as the students went to their team, when they were all sorted she spoke again. "Now is for the most awaited task of this long and most likely boring speech, follow your teams into the dinning hall and meet your elder Team members, make friends, don't be afraid to leave your table every and mingle with the other students, we aren't going to make you sit in the same spot the whole time."
As she finished this she raised her hand as if shoeing the students away and began to walk gracefully barefoot across the stone floor towards the dining hall which was a large bright and colorful hall with four long tables equally spaced and equally filled, except for a large round one that nearly encircled the room, each table was full of people, the semi circle filled with teachers and the four tables on the ground level with students. A feast was about to begin.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Ryan put on the coat and slid her schedule into her pocket when it was suggested, and made her way to the Silver Wolf banner and tossed the brown paper wrapping into the fire, which turned silver as the paper fell into and disappeared in the flames. She then shook hands with the Head Teacher Mr. Queen and stood ready for whatever it was that would come next.
When she learned it was dinner she sighed in relief and began to make her way to the Dining hall. When she got to her table she sat near the end where there weren't many people. She wanted to be able to see the people so she would know which ones to make friends and which ones to make rivals. Of course while she was doing this she was also looking at some of the guys and girls at the other tables noting which ones looked good.
