As the rain beat out its savage melody upon the cloak's hood, Zenta shivered in anticipation. Though the thick material shed the rain's water in waves, her person under the cloak was dry. She and her friend, Navin. The small falcon clung to her wrist, the talons digging painfuly into her skin. That was her left hand, her other hand holding something entirely different. A letter, one inviting her to a school to help her control the powers she had been born with.
So she had come. Though now she was sloshing through water over her ankles, she was filled with unusual excitement of what was to come. She had never been accepted, looking the way she did. Now, she was invited somewhere. |

A women with long brown hair and blue eyes appeared out of the fog of the rainstorm. As she walked toward the new student the rain and fog seamed to move around her. She wore no cloak, only what looks like a thin blue fabric that has many cuts in it. Even without the cloak she is bone dry. She walked over and stood a few feet from the girl.
“Are you...Zenta?” she asked pulling out a paper from her shirt for the name.

Zenta looked around, her eyes picking out the form of the woman amongst the fog. "Yes. Are you... a teacher?" Her eyes strained as she turned to face the woman, the hem of her robe soaking up the rain water racing across the wood. Her booted feet shivered against the slight chill that invaded her for no reason at all. For courage to actually talk to a human, she crumpled the letter again.

A small blush appeared upon her pale skin.
“Sorry, my name is Katara, I am a Master teacher at the Twilight Moon Academy."
Katara pulled her hair behind her pointed ear then held out her hand to shake, a smile on her lips.

A smile graced Zenta's lips as well. Slipping the letter into one of many pockets upon her person, she grasped Katara's hand with her own long-fingered one. Her skin, pale to the point of being marble white, glistened with rain water. She shook the Master Teacher's hand warmly. "Did I... did I come to the right place?" she asked after a heisatation.
{Did I spell that word right?}

“Yes, or course. Though we do have some distance to go yet till we get to the actual school. Do you got a way to get across. If not the school can supply a boat.”
She said kindly.
“Also, we will need to work out what classes you will be taking this year.”

Zenta thought a moment. "Yes, though it's raining I can get to the school." As she paused a moment, Navin whistled lowly as if he could read her thoughts. "I can fly there, yet I have no way to get my pet there." She contemplated another thought before asking in a small voice, "What... what classes are offered?"

Katara paused for a moment thinking.
“The mandatory classes are Magic, Weaponry, Alchemesty, Beastry, and Master. Then there are the elective classes, History, Life skills, Music, Potionry, Puppetmaster, Study Hall, and Samurai. You can only take 5 electives. And you are not able to take any advanced or honor advanced classes at this time.”

Running over the choices in her head, Zenta replied quickly. "Do I choose now or maybe at a later time?"

“Now is fine, but any time before we get to the school is good. Think it over and tell me what electives you wanna take when your ready.” she said smiling.

"Music and Potionry," Zenta replied after a brief pause. "Is that alright?" She took a step back towards the edge of the dock in preparation {sp?}. Water rushed over the side and over the tops of her boots.

Katara pulled out a sheet of paper and a pen and began to write down her choices.
“Anything else?” she asked kindly.
((You don’t have to worry that much about spelling. As long as it is close and most of the words are spelled right. But if you are worried there is a spellchecker feature or you could type it in a word file first.))

{{ Alrighty, thanks. }}
Zenta thought. Samurai was useless since she was a ferocious fighter, Life skills as well since she had lived by herself most of her life. She couldn't think of a reason to take the puppetmaster elective, so she settled for what was left. "Can I take the Study Hall course?"

“Of course.” she said smiling as she wrote down the last class.
Next she rolled the paper up and held the paper up high. A raven came and took the paper away across the lake.
“You should have your class schedule by the time you get to your common room.” she continued. “Ready to head across?”

Zenta nodded, a smile playing across her face. "Do I go ahead by myself?" Navin whistled shrilly, his beak clicking at a rapid tempo.
