First Day Internship

[vneef_healer]

The kata of the Earth Dragon is slowly, painfully, mastered over the course of the next few days.

Today though, today is different. For the first time, the first year students are splitting up to receive more specialized training. Alia bid Fajah good luck a few minutes ago, and made her way to the infirmary of the House of Bells.

The infirmary is a large, sparsely decorated area, the floors rough tile for ease of cleaning as opposed to wood or stone. Beds line one wall of the brightly lit area, and lanterns enclosed by water filled glass globes hang from the ceiling.

The pungent smells of herbs, roots, and medicines fills the air.

Alia is in her element, although she's surprised at just how few of her classmates are here with her. Time passes, and Alia represses the urge to go poking through all the herbs and medicines she doesn't recognize and oh she always wanted one of those, and.....

Eventually, she DOES start to wonder what happened to their instructor. Is there a serious accident somewhere that's being attended to?

More like a surprise visitor.

Well, less surprise, and more important, because there is their teacher, the illustrious Ledaal Rensei Edana, arriving with a tall, lean man dressed in scholar robes of classical fashion, dark green with subtle golden embroidery.

It might take Alia a moment or two to recognize the tall older man as her uncle, Ragara Bagwhei, headmaster and founder of the Heptagram.
