[ sorry if it sounds weird.... Vallie boeh is my favorite character I've ever done and is also my squishy. I love him more then anyone you, therefore.... NONE of you can claim him as their squishy. xDDD]
From out of the thick fog and trees came a boy; his name, Valdoren. Auburn locks swayed like African savannah grass as the light winds blew around him. As his big brown eyes met the lake's start and the docks, he looked up to the sky. It started to rain again like it was earlier; and it was actually harder then the drizzle it had been two hours before hand. His hand held an arrow; the feathers of one of them slid between two fingers; a possible habit he had nowadays. Valdoren's mind wandered, wondering if the right spot to be for the school was here. As the boy took two more steps, a splash of the lake water went onto his boots, not like it mattered after all this rain was teeming down on him.
The ground grew muddy and the ability to see was slim to none now. Hopefully it would settle down some so he was not so surprised when his teacher came around. On the rest of the long dock which sat above the water, was a sound of footsteps amongst the clamor the rain, making a melody as it pelted down to the soft earth. The boy looked behind him, a figure a bit farther back coming into sight; the shadows releaving their grip over the person. "Is that my teacher?" was the first thoguht that came into his head.

"It would seem so, wouldn't it?" A young woman, stunningly pale, stood before him, observing him lightly with her liquid gold eyes partially covered by moon-shaped eyeglasses. Her pretty brown hair was cropped short, and she was wearing a shimmery, almost nonexistent blue shawl around her shoulders with a laced cami underneath, and purple army capris. She wore nothing but a pair of summery looking flip-flops on her rather small feet. In her arms was a copy of Twilight for some unknown reason.
"You must be Valdoren." Her voice tinkled like the rain hitting the boardwalk.

Valdoren's brown hued eyes looked at her for a moment, hearing the woman's voice was somewhat of a relief. "I am." the boy said in response to her, bowing his head. "Nice to meet you." Valdoren let the strap to his arrow case slide down his shoulder and stop when it landed in the crease of his arm; then putting the arrow his fingers toyed with away, his questions diminishing to reveal new ones now that the teacher was here. "And what is yours?" he asked in that same polite tone.
He was brought up to be a very respectful and polite, though the obvious are listed with it of course. Valdoren was not used to the rain; living in a desert all his life, and it was after three rainy hours straight that the boy's skin began to feel overly wet and clamy. He did not complain or think about complaining since it was not much of a pain as it was an annoyance to him, but a light set of shivers had kicked in, his body telling Valdoren it was getting uncomfortably cold.

"Well met, young Valderon." The woman, looking rather eccentric, said. Her hair frizzed out with all the moisture, giving it an odd look as it brushed her glasses. She bowed her head respectfully."Do you have any questions?" She walked towards a shabby-looking stand selling boat tickets cheaply. The woman did not happen to be rich, but she bought two tickets anyways.

"A few," he answered, "but I think it would be better if you told me anything I should really know first. Most of my questions would probably get answered while you did; but that's only, of course, if there is anything." How could Val describe it? He wanted to know a lot of things, but as he said, most of the mass confusion would be settled with the general things.
Once they got into the boat and were getting untied from the dock, Valdoren thought about a few things that were making him look into something more then he probably should have ever gone in the first place. The school had not come into view yet, but the older boy was ready. The size; he was told, was enormous. Though it might be, having the reputation and number of students it possessed in there, being taught all year round...who is to say it could not?

"Well, let's see. You will be assigned a dorm, yes, there is a place to eat, there are discounts, you will have me as your Master Teacher, anything else?" She asked, enunciating well to make sure it got to him. The strange, toothless, wizened old man who owned the ferry rowed the boat with astounding effort. "By the way," she smiled kindly, giving her a very odd appearance, "there's no need to be so withdrawn, darling."

"Oh," he said to the sound of her voice, "sorry. I'm a good ways from home and it has been a while since I was there." His first explanation was given, and now for the questions. Valdoren looked around, the school arising from the thick fog. "What kind of classes are there? I'm not a magic user and I heard most of the classes are based around it in some way or another."

The woman slapped her forehead. "Of course! I knew I forgot something! Your schedual," she explained kindly. "The options for period seven are music, history, and potionry; eighth are holy, flare, and summoning; ninth are dragoon, samurai, and thievery; and tenth are puppetmaster and survival. Choose one from each group." The woman, still unnamed to Valdoren, smiled kindly at him.

(Actually, he did ask her her name)
Valdoren thought about the choices. He didn't want theivery; that was for sure, especially because stealing was not one of the past times he enjoyed. "Well, Music sounds alright for seventh." he responded; his mental gears turning still for the rest of them. The boy's hair was sticking together in thin pieces since it was all wet and his clothes stuck to his body, though anything behind his vest was not actually seen. "Summoning, dragoon, and......survival."
His choices, to him, were pretty wise; no matter the reason to exclude theivery so immediatly. The rain stopped, and after he was done answering his one teacher; Valdoren lifted his eyes to the sky were the sun could be seen but in a dim and almost unseen way. The skies were as dark as before; unchanging in their apperance, the school's opposing shore up ahead.

((O.O Holy crap, I'm blind. Sorry. I must have skimmed that post. -_-' In the immortal words of Reba, that was an epic fail on my part.))
"Oh, I forgot, sorry for not answering you sooner, but my name is Annalie. Call me Lee!" She said, obviously forgetful. "Well, those are wonderful choices! Are you able to remember on your own, or do you need a reminder?" Lee asked kindly.

"I should be able to remember; but thank you anyway, Lee." he told her nodding his head. He stood up, adjusting his weapons and its casing.

"Okay, good. Now it's my turn for questioning. Would you be so kind to tell your absentminded old teacher what your powers are, so she may find a suitable gift for you?" Lee said, somehow confusing herself.

"I actually don't have any powers." Valdoren confessed looking a bit embarrassed and such. He was 100 precent human. The blood of an archer coarsed through his veins and though he lived with a demon; there was no special gift he had. "Though, ever since I picked up a bow an arrow, I've been exceptionally good; as if I had been doing it for more years then I've been alive. I'm fine without a gift if you can only give those with powers one, Lee."

"Really? Fascinating! Let's see if you can guess what powers I have. A hint: my race will help you find out." Lee smiled, loving riddles. "Oh, no, darling! Everyone gets a gift. There's no need to be embarassed that you have no powers! Anyways . . ." She rummaged around in a small rucksack and found the perfect gift. "Here you go, Valdoren! It's an enchanted bow."
**VALDOREN HAS RECIEVED AN "ENCHANTED BOW"**
Enchanted Bow
An indestructible, goblin-made bow that shoots twice as far as normal for whoever holds it.

"An elf, correct?" he responded to Lee first, then pausing for the normal matter of minutes before slightly changing the subject. "I thank you for the bow, Lee." He was finally off into the school; ready to take on what he had missed a long time ago.
