Monday:

The carriage ride was really boring and dull. The length of time that it took for me to travel all the way to my destination was as long as a giant's finger.

Still, Ever After High. It was going to be a whole new environment. Not only that, there were new people to meet. I was nervous. This wasn't going to be training for what I aimed to be. This was more of the lines a political debacle. Something that I was awful at.

Then my thoughts went back to King Arthur. If I was to inherit the throne, how would I ever become a good leader? I was not as charismatic and outspoken as the legendary figure was! Even Excalibur said I had a long way to go! I don't want to be king. I only want to be a knight that protects others!

The carriage ha stopped as I looked outside the window of the carriage. The school looked more like a huge castle. It was beautiful and magnificent. And certainly more clean than the grittier Knight Academy!

I slowly got out of the carriage with my briefcase. I wore a yellow sleeveless shirt, black hoodie jacket with yellow vertical stripes in front, black pants and shoes with yellow laces.

I had to move my silver hair out of my eyes just to have a closer look of the school. It was definitely way bigger than the Knight Academy. I wondered if there was a training ground I can use to polish my skills.

I looked around and saw a variety of students my age seemingly on their way. A colorful cast of characters indeed.

I slowly made my way as I looked at the sights this place had to offer. What's even more amazing was that there was also magic!

Using the school's directory, I made my way to the headmaster's office.

I knocked on the door before a voice called me to enter.

I saw a man dressed in a blue coat and light grayish blue vest with a light blue ascot. He had green eyes and dark gray hair with a mustache. He's also rather stout, at least in the stomach area, from the side.

I noticed that he was wearing some kind of strange golden ring that resembled a mirror.

"Mr. Pendragon, allow me to welcome you to Ever After High." he said. "I am Milton Grimm, but you will address me as Headmaster Grimm."

I gave a nod.

"When your teacher from the Knight Academy told me about you, I was skeptical since Arthur didn't have any known descendants. However, it seems that he has really vouched for your enrollment. That, and he also said that he has an old friend that teachers one of the classes here."

An old friend? I wondered who that was.

"Here is your schedule and your dorm room key, Mr. Pendragon. Since you will become a hero, I hope you live up to your ancestors' legacy."

I wasn't really so sure about that. Being a king is definitely not for me.

"Since you've had a very long journey, you should rest for today. I'll remind you that you're an exception, so don't sugarcoat it."

That's a given. I nodded and left the office. I headed to my dormitory since I had a really long day. I opened it to see a huge bedroom with two beds facing opposite each other. Shrugging, I began to unpack and lie on the bed.

And now here I am writing this. A lot of thoughts were running on my mind, but I wondered what kind of students I would meet.


A/N: One journal entry complete? So who should Cayden interact with?
