Thanks to strict academic standards, Cinderfall Academy was brimming with students of high magical aptitude. High indeed, for the academy was ranked amongst the top schools in the Imperium, easily the top in the south-west, based on the magical median. As much a curse as it was a blessing, from where I stood. Stiff competition and multiple curses threatened to rob my standing right out from under me. If I maintained peak marks, I didn’t have to concern mtself with giving up my dorm to Lord so-and-so's brat. Unfortunately, book smarts had limits, and the practical exams were bound to hit with a vengeance. If not for Cinderfall, I’d be back at the orphanage. My anxiety returned, just thinking about it, and I swiped those thoughts away.

Nope.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPF19q41XXg
My anxiety came anyway. Why? Because physical education was next on the schedule. It was the second semester, boys and girls. This is where the world ended, where my inadequacy really prepared to rear its head.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzkGcHtjFdf
So, why was I forced to attend this course? Right, physical eduation was a mandate. It just happened to be one of Calum's recommendations on the road to academic success. Of course, the goal could be nothing but a pipe dream.

Blah and bleh roll around in my thoughts, deep in the mud pit.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuqlQQ6fv7L
Trudging through concrete arches, wading through hosen, tunics, and what the scholars call pheromones, I began to second-guess everything about my future. Why did I care so much about having a prestigious occupation anyways? Maybe, it’s because nobody told me I couldn’t be a Magistrix? Somehow or another, I would harness the arcane and manipulate elements on a whim.

I beseeched the gods for the power to set my enemies on fire. That is all. Too much to ask? Yet, that ship sailed farther away with every lesson. To channel the mara crystals seemed impossible. Without that basic abilitity, what could I be but a priestess? But, but, but did I want to take those vows? No! I coud never blend in with the clergy or those sisters. What did they need to be strong casters? Zeal! Everybody knows that clergy members need zeal. My zeal was zero.

"Godsdammit!" I said aloud. Sauntering down the hall, some passing students glowered at me.

"Hey!"
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8JAp4O47LU
After dallying in the halls for too long, stuck in my head, I tried to hop, skip, and jump toward the arena. And I failed.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUoxCtmdmvR
"Hey!"
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyOFjP8a9Xk
Who was being so loud?
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxlEjDPBQX7
"Hey!" A random ball of pale skin jumped in front of me: a boy. It startled me so, I almost tripped over the tiles. My hand shot to my cast to keep from stumbling. Who was this boy? Why did he do that? Confusion. Annoyance. Here I was, stuck before the combed and blonde piece of dough in front of me. He wore a silly cap on top of a goofy smile sliced with reddish dimples and a particular incision in between those buck teeth making him appear plumper. Somebody needs to lay off the cafeteria toffee, know what I mean? But then I recognized him. He was in my last class; was he not? Yes, yes, he was.

"You are Pollux!" he stated, tightening his dimples wit a smile.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzWzptdESxY
"Am I?"
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlrm02Gj4An
His face frowned in self-doubt. Gullible little meatball.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnZ5qRagemX
I rolled my eyes. "Yes, I am..."
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJOlffKK5Xw
"I saw you chant that spell in Tome Study! Are you, like, some savant or something?"
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡstyzrtdk5d
"I don't know; that was my first time."
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0mk8Vv39Ji
"So, you are a savant!"
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwrdL3BbNYc
"Listen!" I said sternly.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKE867r61Um
The little gentleman froze. When he froze, I walked ‘round and right past him, silently. Unfortunately, he decided to follow me.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSS2uNIXNds
"So, Pollux, are you going to be a priestess? Maybe become Hierophant one day? My mother wanted to be Hierophant, but she said she couldn't because she had me. She said I can be Hierophant, so she takes me to the chapel and teaches me the Sacred Verse. You seem like you know you're way around holy magic, which is surprising! I have never seen you at the chapel! Maybe, I missed you. I ask because I was wondering if you tutor? I bet it's hard, though. Though, probably not for someone as good as you. Where are you going?"
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgHCk2Z93xf
"I'm going to Physical Education, er...”
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhUypQi5AE5

15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbC00qU2QMO

15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRDL1Ft6vmx
"It's Roy."
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEnPMVIePKD
"Ron. As you can see," I gestured to my cast with the limp leg within, "I can do neither acros nor batics."
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnZ7cFGEHK9
"Hehe, you talk talk funny. Is it true that you lost your memory?"
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ44mt7ri82R
I stop. "And where did you hear that from, Roy?"
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRDDYohfGhm
"I just heard it through the berry vines."
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTv7QhrccXS
"Berry bines?"
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxaUzaRZvzr
"Some other students were whispering in class about it."
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTKbgGBxIzR
For such a big academy, word spread spectacularly fast. Maybe ‘twas a fluke, a pebble in the stream. Roy was an anomaly. Most students couldn’t know about my condition, of which there is more than one, one being obvious. I refused to accept it. Sigh. I made my way through the open halls, which were all but empty now.
