Umbra acadamy has three buildings. One for first years, one for second years and one for staff and apprentice mages (mages who pass and want to stay longer to leatn specialised magic). Each building has ten arenas, twenty classrooms and one hundred dormitory rooms (groups of 2 rooms). Henceforth the umbra acadamy can hold a number of twelve hundred pupils and is the third largest mage acadamy in the world of mana.
Dusk hung at the back of the newcomers, following the confused bunch trying to find class 1-A. After twenty minuets, they found the room and swarmed in the twenty-five student room. After tracing the map and rooms given by apprentice mages in room 1-A, the students parted into their groups and set about finding their dormitories as the first two days of the acadmy contained no subjects or magic traning. Just familarisation of the buildings layout.
Dusk was placed in dormitory 43, room 2. She was to be grouped with a mage known as 'Sable'. Dusk wandered down the maze of corridoors for a goof fourty minuets before she found her way to her dorm. She held her breath as she entered and immediatly released her breath as she found nobody in the room. Dusk always had trouble meeting new people and talking, therefore prefered to be alone. The room itself was lighter than outside thanks to the lamps given and the basalt walls were plain. Probably for decoration by each occupant during the year. The floor was phazable for seven feet, easily enough to hide if nesseccary and also the ceiling. Dusk summoned her spell book as no bags were given and carried on reading under the dim light of the yellow flamed lamps in each corner of the room. The page she read was on conserving mana, dark mana precisly and the fuel of most of Dusk's magic. Across her dorm was a door, which she only noticed after noises were heared on the other side of the wall, announcing the arrival of two of her three group members. The third nowhere to be heard nor seen. She jumped and phazed into the bottom bunk bed she laid on with her book as the connecting room's door opened. Revealing the long nosed theif boy from before and a taller, beefier mage, whom look deadly in physical combat. Neither noticed Dusk as she was hidden in the bottom bunk beds shadow and they both wore confused faces.
"I swear i heard somebody in here scrooge." The beefy mage said"
"You probabaly did, but they probably shadow sneaked with the amount of noise you made opening that door drap!" Scrooge snapped at him.
"Woah ok little man calm down it's not my fault these doors have a small chain lock on them." Drap replied. "Lets go back anyway I wanna look around the building"
The door closed behind the two group mates but Dusk decided to stau hidden in the bunks shadow. Another presence was suddenly felt and a high pitched girls voice spoke next to Dusk making her jump.
"Dont like boys that much either huh? Or is it your scared of strangers" The voice's owner smiled.
