The next ten years or so of my life was dedicated completely to furthering my education. Though I focused mainly on history, I also revived my love for magic, becoming quite skilled in practical and elemental techniques. I also took courses in literature, calligraphy, and writing, as well as a few other classes for entertainment purposes. By the time I was twenty-three, however, I felt that I had largely finished my structured education; that is, I continued to far exceed the expectations of my professors, and the majority of what I was learning was outside of class anyway. Started only taking a couple of classes, mostly so I could still live in the student lodging. The rest of my time was spent in my new job: tutoring.

I found that I greatly loved to tutor other students. Not only did it give me extra practice on the subject, but it also gave me something to do with the knowledge I had gained over my years at the school. I continued tutoring until I was twenty-six, when I finally decided I had completed my coursework. By this time I had decided that I truly loved to teach. I knew I had a good resume, so I decided to apply to become a professor in Senika City. Unfortunately, I also knew that the chances of being accepted were highly unlikely for many reasons; there were not many openings for positions at the school, and when positions did open, many seasoned teachers would apply. Despite this, I attempted it anyway, knowing I could always continue tutoring.

Because I was expecting it, I was not terribly disappointed when I was turned down. However, one of the heads of the
school told me that I was well qualified to teach there, they

I was baffled as to his intentions, but he soon let me know what they were. He told he was retiring soon, and that he strongly advised me to apply for his position. He was even letting me know ahead of time so I could get my application in before all the others. All of this was already quite overwhelming, but lastly he told me that he would give a strong recommendation that they hire me as the new professor. This last completely stunned me; this man had likely had thousands of students in his career, and yet he might as well have been hand picking me to take over for him. I promised him I would apply again, and I was deeply thankful that he had told me.

No sooner had I turned the application in and returned to my home, I was called back to the school. The heads of the school had decided, upon my old professor's recommendation, to hire me as the new history professor of Senika City. I was shocked that they had decided so soon, but they told me that it was not unusual for a specific person to be hired if the retiring professor suggested them; it would be silly for them to ignore such an esteemed recommendation.

I will go no further into detail, but since then I have proudly taught history to hundreds of students here in the City of Academics. Since I was hired, I have been given a second history class to teach as well as two magic classes (much to my surprise). They are,
of course, lower level magic classes, but they are still so very

Other than teaching, I generally devote my time to wandering about, seeing if I can add any new books or scrolls of information to my collection. I recently gained recognition for rediscovering a lost library, believe it or not. The library is legendary for its collection, but perhaps the history of the library itself is one of its most interesting pieces.

I discovered it while in the wilderness; I still am not entirely sure how I stumbled upon other than extraordinary luck. After going inside I came upon the skeleton of a woman, and nearby was a book. The book detailed how this sorceress had dedicated her life to the collection of knowledge, but had grown fearful when the city she resided in started experiencing some discourse. Afraid her books would be damaged, she transported the entire building far away, where it would be safe. Unfortunately the immense use of magic had drained the elderly woman, and the building wasn't placed exactly where she had intended.

She spent her last days writing about her life and that of her library; I won't go into detail here, but it was a fascinating read. Upon discovering the library, I took many books from her collection before alerting the rest of the scholarly world. Since then the collections of the library have been compiled safely here in Senika City, and my room happens to hold a good deal of her historical records.

Hopefully my personal story wasn't put you to sleep, but if it has I implore you to please refrain from drooling on the pages.

Earth is a very powerful element to have, as I'm well acquainted with. It is said that the mountains that protect Remnic from Hataan were created by a single, very skilled Earth dragon. Earth can be both powerful and gentle, and is possibly the most versatile element.

Air is the most common element to have, and it is often paired with Electricity. It is also the easiest to master, as it is, of course, everywhere, and weighs virtually nothing so it is easy to move. Those of the Air element are able to stir up massive winds, create storms, or simply bring a gentle breeze sailing through the city.

Fire is a dangerous and unpredictable element, but also very common and strangely simple to master. It is very powerful once it is controlled, though proper understanding is needed or else it can quickly overwhelm the user.

Water is a relatively uncommon element, often paired with Ice. Water is notorious difficult to master as it requires a much steadier hand than the others due to the sheer weight and power it has. Those with this element can do anything from making a river flow backwards to simple regenerating a glass of water.

Electricity is very rarely alone in a dragon, and it is often paired with Air. It is most commonly used to generate lightning. It is not a very common element to have as it is highly unpredictable, more so than fire, and incredibly dangerous in the hands of an untrained individual.

Ice is almost always paired with Water - many argue, in fact, that Ice is not its own element but simply a further manipulation of water. Whatever the case, it is a very useful element that is
very similar to earth. Many students I have had in the past

Light is a very tricky element to have and the least common; it very rarely stands on its own, and it is hard to master because there isn't a physical presence. The main thing people try to achieve if they have the element of Light is something no other form of magic can accomplish as effectively: invisibility.

The main use of elemental magic is fighting, as they can be used to create devastating attacks or protective defenses. It can be used for other things, though. Earth magic is often employed when building things, or even in metal work. Water was used quite frequently when new towns were being formed; people would divert rivers from their normal course to be closer to their desired location. In all, elemental magic is one of the most powerful forms of magic. If anyone hopes to become a successful sorcerer, they definitely need to become very skilled with their specific element. My class is here to give them that first beginning step toward mastery.

Characters coming soon.

Please know that I do not generally roleplay Naiue. However, if you'd like to contact me (Kennon) to perhaps arrange something of an 'acquaintance', I would be happy to do so.
