Roleplay posts: 361
Age: 51
Physical Description: Reuna is a striking study in contrasts. She is just slightly above female average, height-wise, standing at 5'8", and is slender, with a fragile bone structure that makes her look weak; this is, of course, balanced out by her strength and skill in magic. Her hair is long, descending to her waist, and is purely black, which is a sharp opposition to her pale-skinned features. Her eyes are the color of amethyst, dark and intense, and are usually the only method from which one can derive her mood, as she very rarely displays her emotions via facial expressions. She appears young, in her mid-thirties, although if one looks closely enough, they can see the beginnings of fine lines around her eyes and mouth. Although few have ever seen them, due to her tendency to keep herself fully covered from neck to toes, she has whip-mark scars covering most of her back, and scars from long periods spent in manacles around both of her wrists, remnants from her days as a slave.
-----------------------------
Clothes and Equipment: Generally, Reuna wears one of five sets of identical robes, with high collars and long slightly-loose sleeves, in black, dark grey, purple, dark green, and dark blue. Commonly-carried equipment consists of her personal grimoire, a traveling writing kit (with ink well, quills, and writing desk), and a belt with pouches that contain various items (both magical and non); though perhaps not considered equipment, her raven companion Karrik always accompanies her.

It had taken only a bit of wandering in the city for Reuna to discover the name of this place, as well as the name of the shining beacon of magic that she could sense in the near distance. As she approached the brilliant white building, she tried out the pronunciation, rolling the syllables around on her tongue. "Académie Royale de l'Arcane... Interesting." It was not a language she was familiar with, but it was certainly elegant. And the translation was clear enough, if one could infer that the words were similar to those of the common tongue -- given how they sounded, it seemed fairly likely. Which meant that this was definitely the place for her.
Measured strides led her closer to the collection of domes and spires, and although she proceeded up the steps at the entrance with confidence, she knew it was highly unlikely that she would be able to enter without being stopped by someone. Guards or staff, most likely. That suited her purposes just fine. It suited them perfectly, in all actuality. Her violet hues flicked up to the sky, watching her raven familiar circling high above, keeping an eye on his mistress. As she came to the top of the steps, the sorceress halted, waiting for the inevitable confrontation, her hands folded calmly at her waist.

Physical Description: Edward Laurént stands at 5'10. He has midlength black hair, and a clean shaven face. Previously his facial features were hard to remember, since he has begun wearing glasses they have become easier to recall. He looks to be in his late twenties, with a strong jaw, mid set cheek bones, straight narrow nose, and full lips. He appears to be in decent physical condition, though he is a bit pale.
Edwards eyes are an odd shade of blue, and they quite literally glow. With his glasses on, the glowing is the only remarkable thing about them. When you stare into his eyes when his glasses off though... it can be an odd experience. Staring into his eyes gives the impression that time has ceased to flow. Then you become aware of just how fast you are moving through the void of space. Most students avoid looking into his eyes.

Clothes and Equipment: Previously Edward only owned one suit of clothing. He retains these clothes, as a sort of work uniform. His style of dress when working is odd. He wears: sturdy blue cotton pants, an over sized coat of some unknown material, a sweater with a hood sewn onto it, and a large scarf. Each piece of clothing fluctuates in state of repair, and cleanliness through the day. If these clothes were not so eccentric, he could easily be considered a beggar while wearing them.
Edward has begun to expand his wardrobe in recent months. His first new accessory is a pair of glasses. Unlike other time mages, Edward struggled with turning off his time sight, rather than turning it on. His glasses are enchanted to suppress it. When not working he tends to wear casual clothing. Loose white shirts, and simple leather leggings. He also has a handful of stylish, if simple mage robes for special occasions.

A man walks out of the school, and blinks in surprise at Reuna. He looks around her curiously for a moment, and then approaches.
"Good you are early. Hold this."
He gives her a heavy leather bound book. The book is titled, "The Winding of Time" and is in extremely poor repair. Assuming the woman takes it he will then say.
"Excellent! Now take three steps to the right."
Once she has done so, he will stare at his wrist, then at the sky, and wait.

The approach of a man from within the school didn't faze Reuna at all. What did surprise her was his words, and the actions that followed. Naturally, she extended her hands with their multitude of silver rings, accepting the book into their grasp.. but she also arched a thin brow, looking moderately puzzled. "..I see. So, I was expected." It was not a question, but a statement. It seemed entirely likely that there was either some sort of powerful scrying tool within this Academy, or a particularly skilled seer.
"I suppose it would be safe to assume that my services will be of some use, then." The sorceress sounded vaguely amused as she said this, and the slight upward quirk at the corner of her lips lent credence to that fact. Still, there were no questions; Reuna understood well the sometimes odd ways of magic. And so, she took three precise steps to the right, carefully cradling the book against her chest. She watched the man as she waited, wondering what, precisely, it was they were waiting for. She followed his gaze briefly upward, that gesture enough to summon her raven familiar, drawing him to land on her shoulder. Both were silent. Waiting. And on her part, quite intrigued.

A minute passes, then two, then suddenly a book falls from the sky. If Reuna had continued standing where she had been, it would have hit her on the head. Instead Echoes catches the book, and starts examining it. If the sorceress looks carefully, she would see it was the same book she is currently holding. The new copy of "The Winding of Time" Echoes holds is in much better repair.
"Excellent! Finished in seven days, and very well done. You have done excellent work Librarian Midai. Or wait, do I call you Reuna?"
Echoes frowns in concentration.
"I don't know when am I? Is it now? Yesterday? Or have we hit tomorrow? Tell me, have I offered you a slice of cake yet? That will help narrow when down."

Both dark brows shot upward, her astonishment plain, when that book fell from the sky. What was most shocking was that the tome clearly bore the marks of her careful restoration, including the mild tint of her own magical resonance. The explanation rapidly became obvious as the unknown man began to speak. So, a time dabbler. Very interesting, indeed. And he had called her Librarian Midai. That definitely put a pleased gleam in her violet eyes. "Reuna will be fine, thank you. And you are?"
It took her literally biting her tongue to stifle a soft chuckle. Ah, those who frolicked to and fro within time's variable flow could be vastly entertaining, at times. "No, I cannot say you have offered me a slice of cake. Although, were you to do so, I would be pleased to accept. A wise woman never turns down cake." And Reuna liked to think she was wise.. at least, most of the time. She was human, after all, and did have her lapses in judgement.

"No cake? So this our first meeting. Making this tomorrow, damn. Though that makes sense, I haven't read The Winding of Time yet. I am looking forward to it, it's a marvelous read." He promptly drops the book, it vanishes before hiting the ground. He then stares above Reuna's head for several moments. "Ah, excellent." He nods to himself, then walks away. He returns a minute later from the other direction. "Sorry, proper order of events. I am Professor Echoes, I am the head of inter-dimensional studies which I teach. I also teach 4 dimensional theory, and cake baking. I never tell you I use time magic, you still knew. I suppose I will work on hiding that, I'll work on it yesterday. This time when I leave you should follow, it was smart of you not to do so the second time." With that Echoe turns and walks off, in the same direction he walked off before. <Exit to the Grand Library.>

"Well then, I am happy to help, and I look forward to restoring it to its former glory." Her fingers gently caressed the cover of the worn book with a tenderness one usually reserved for treasured pets, the touch of a true bibliophile. Reuna wouldn't have devoted much of her time to learning such a difficult skill if she didn't genuinely love books. The eccentricities of time dabblers being known to her, the sorceress remained in place as her newly met companion departed, only to return soon after. She nodded at his words, then followed, speaking as she did so.
"A pleasure to meet you, Professor."

Reuna had no idea how long she had been in the Grand Library, losing herself among the stacks of books, but eventually she emerged, in search of the woman named Matrisse that Echoes had mentioned. While the odd time-traveling professor had assured her that the position of Librarian and restorer of books was to be hers, she thought it best to speak to the woman in charge of the Academy as soon as possible. With the book Echoes had given her still held in her arms, the sorceress began to roam, hoping to come across a clearly labeled study or office.
Although assuming she came across any of the Academy's staff, she was not ashamed to ask for directions. Stopping one such mage who was bustling about in a hurried manner, she spoke. "Pardon me.. could I perhaps trouble you for directions? I am seeking Assistant Arch Magus Matrisse." The mage seemed annoyed, but pointed her in the right direction, and she nodded. "Thank you." With that, she resumed her wandering, headed toward the room where she had been told, she would find this Matrisse woman.

Matrisse looks up from her paperwork at Reuna.
"Hello there. Are you looking to apply for the academy? There's a form, a fee, and two tests."
She slides over an application and returns to her coffee and papers.
"Well? Get on with it, I haven't got all day."

After entering the office, Reuna opened her mouth to speak.. and found herself interrupted. She paused, closed her mouth, and arched a brow. After pursing her lips for a few moments, she spoke. "..No. I am not, in fact, here to apply. I am here seeking employment in your library. I have been practicing magic for many years, and am skilled in the restoration of tomes both magical and non-magical."
Extracting the note provided to her by Echoes from its hidden sleeve pocket, she approached the desk and dropped the piece of paper onto it, directly in front of Matrisse. Then she stepped back, both arms wrapping around the book in her arms once more. "That was given to me by your colleague earlier in the day. I hope it will suffice to vouch for my intentions." She fell silent, waiting. This woman was somewhat rude, but Reuna was not easily riled, and refused to let her mild irritation show. She would, however, be quite glad to leave.. and the sooner, the better.

Matrisse looks up again.
"Oh? A librarian? I wasn't aware we needed one...ah well."
She takes the paper and glances at it, mutters something about "damn time-traveler", and shoves it in a drawer.
"Alright. If he says you're good, you're good. Go ahead. You know where the library is. Get on with it. You can start at 20 golden pieces per day, and you can stay in one of the dorms."
20 golden coins would barely cover the cost of living in one of the nearby fancy hotels. Lucky that housing is provided.

Reuna said nothing about whether or not she was needed; anyone who'd been in that library could see that there were a large number of books that needed repair, whether it be minor or major, and she sincerely doubted there was another staff member who was experienced in that field. Instead, she simply nodded, turning on her heel and making her way out the door. "Thank you."
Said 'dorm' would probably end up serving as the center for her restorative efforts.. as for lodging, she had another plan in mind. It would just take a little doing to make it happen. And that called for another trip to the library. She needed to investigate the magical laws of this place before she went about connecting doorways. And to the library was exactly where her steps led her.

Seraphine had made quite a travel and she could feel in her muscles that she had been riding a horse for the longest time now. Unsure if she was able to bring a horse to the establishment she had sold it in the nearest town to the academy for some extra money and had walked the last bit towards her final destination.
As she arrived she felt a lump appear in her throat again, this one even bigger then when she had gotten close to the checkpoint. The building was a lot bigger then she had expected and she pulled her cloak closer around her. She saw students already roaming around on the campus and the last she wanted was for someone to come up and speak to her.
She quickly made her way to the entrance of the school and went inside to look for a place where she could make her entry noticed and get a place to store her stuff.
Because of the nerves that were tickling her she felt herself losing control and a pair of ears would pop up under her cloak. She quickly pulled it over it to hide and laid the ears flat as she tried to make them disappear again, but of course they wouldnt go away.
She finally found a counter with someone behind there and showed them her invitation. "Could you give me more information to what I am supposed to do to enroll here?"

Matrisse looks at the new prospective student. She looks foreign, but doesn't look too foreign. Not like a Katashiman or anything like that.
"Fill out this form, then you'll have to take a written test and a practical test. Here you go."
She hands Seraphine a long and complicated form.
"Take your time."

"Thank you very much." she said as she nodded in respect for the assistant. She took the form from her and pen to write on and looked for a place to sit down. The form consisted of more then one page and the questions seemed endless.
When she finally sat down somewhere she looked over some of the question and started to fill them out. "Magical heritage? None. Magic type.. I guess shapeshifter?" she started to fill out, unsure of most of the stuff that written here. The only reason she had been invited was because her type of magic was quite rare and appearantly she did have talent for it or something. She had accepted it because she was hoping to get control over her random transformations. But now that she knew that she had to take a written test and practical test, it made her lose a bit of hope of actually getting admitted to this place. How am I going to complete a test about magic? I know nothing about it other then i was apparently born with it.
She sighed.

Then you become aware of just how fast you are moving through the void of space. Most students avoid looking into his eyes.

Clothes and Equipment: Previously Edward only owned one suit of clothing. He retains these clothes, as a sort of work uniform. His style of dress when working is odd. He wears: sturdy blue cotton pants, an over sized coat of some unknown material, a sweater with a hood sewn onto it, and a large scarf. Each piece of clothing fluctuates in state of repair, and cleanliness through the day. If these clothes were not so eccentric, he could easily be considered a beggar while wearing them.
Edward has begun to expand his wardrobe in recent months. His first new accessory is a pair of glasses. Unlike other time mages, Edward struggled with turning off his time sight, rather than turning it on. His glasses are enchanted to suppress it. When not working he tends to wear casual clothing. Loose white shirts, and simple leather leggings. He also has a handful of stylish, if simple mage robes for special occasions.

Professor Echoes wanders into the room. At first he seems completely oblivious to at @sephari's presence. He pokes around the room evidently looking for something. When he finally comes to where Seraphine is sitting, he pokes her then exclaims.
"Oh! Then you are, I was looking all over for you. My name was Professor Echoes. If I remember correctly Miss. Seraphine, this is the first time we have met. I adminstered your practical exam, we did wave the written given your situation."

Her body shook up a bit as the poke from the professor scared her out of her concentration. The ears that had appeared earlier popped up towards the sky as a reaction and were now clearly visible from under her hooded cloak. She quickly placed in back over her head as she turned around.
"H-hello. Yes I am Seraphine. I only arrived a little bit ago. What do you mean you administered my practical? Don't we need to do that still?" she asked surprised.

Age: Yesterday.
Physical Description: Edward Laurént stands at 5'10. He has midlength black hair, and a clean shaven face. Previously his facial features were hard to remember, since he has begun wearing glasses they have become easier to recall. He looks to be in his late twenties, with a strong jaw, mid set cheek bones, straight narrow nose, and full lips. He appears to be in decent physical condition, though he is a bit pale.

Echoes frowns at Seraphine, his brow furrowing in concentration, his tongue sticks out of the corner of his mouth. He speaks slowly and carefully.
"You... still need to take your practical yes. I was... sorry, I am, a time mage. To me the test is yet to come, is happening, and has already happened. Keeping track requires considerable, concentration."
The strain of stringing together, a single mostly coherent sentences, leaves Echoes with a slight headache. He rubs his forehead gently.
"Hurts just as much as I remember. Anyway you followed me now, and we were in a testing room. I explained the details there."
With that Echoes walks out of the room. He concentrates on the now, long enough to make sure Seraphine is following him. He leads her to an oval room with black stone walls, it is about 20 feet by 10 feet. Once inside he produces a silver marble, which he drops onto his palm. The marble hovers about an inch above his hand, and he covers it with the other one. He then separates his hands slowly, and as he does the marble expands. It grows till it is about the size of his head, and he makes a gesture. The orb floats over to Seraphine, and emits a blue plane of light. The light sweeps over her body up, down, then back up. When the orb finishes it floats back over to Echoes.
"Questions? Did you have any... before, yes? Before we begin?"

Honestly, Seraphine couldn't think anything but weird about the man in front of her. She was mostly unfamiliar with magic and even just the concept of someone who controlled time was completly foreign to her. She was starting to understand how much she would need to adept to this place. And most likely she would be the only one who didn't understand a thing.
She picked up her papers that were only half filled in and followed the professor. When they entered the room she looked around and studied what was around her, but there wasn't that much to see. The orb that had scanned her made her look in awe as it was moving by itself.
"Uhmm, just one thing. What am I supposed to do?" She felt stupid for asking such a general question, she was probably supposed to know. But she was 100% sure that it hadn't been mentioned in the letter that she had received.

Once again Echoes face takes it's expression of extreme concentration.
"Presently, you are going to demonstrate to me the extent of your control. Shooooooort term, you are going to take intro to magic, to get you grounded. Long term... we are going to teach you how to control your powers... Gah."
Echoes rubs his forehead, wincing in pain once again.
"The scan I am going to take, is a fourth dimensional assessment of your biological and magical components. I use that to help you understand your unique magic. Sorry I tried to speak in present tense, but it is hard. Time isn't linear despite how you perceive it."
