welcome to Eldritch Academy
In a world of myths and mysteries, the pinnacle of the magical academies exists. Eldritch Academy offers education to all ages and species but specializes in the study and training of one's innate mystical capabilities, often called Eldritch Energies, Powers, or Unknowns, but more formally known as their Talent. However, tensions run high with the nations only holding a fragile peace as the Talents that rival the epitomes of technology change the balance of power.
With the more recent uprising of evil Shades and introduction of combat-oriented programs into Talent-focused schools, nations grow more aggressive towards one another. The demand for resources grows, and skirmishes at the border of Arka and Mistere become more frequent. Monsters run into the nations from the Wildes, terrorizing villages and cities. The need for trained or in-training Hunters and Guardians has never been more urgent.

Ryse relaxed some as she saw that the dragon wasn't about to kill them all, lowering her hands and giving a quiet sigh of relief. Now that the danger was relatively passed, she walked over to her textbooks which were still lying on the ground where she'd dropped them out of fright and picked them up. Spotting a bench nearby, she decided to put them there, where they wouldn't get ruined; textbooks cost money, and she didn't have enough to replace them all if they were destroyed. However, she still eyed the snarky girl - the one who'd addressed Professor Theo and the dragon - nervously. She wasn't sure what to think of her just yet. Was she a student? Was she new here? The teenager didn't recall seeing her on campus until now. Perhaps she had only just arrived at the school.
Her blue eyes widened as she heard that the dragon - now correctly named a Flurry - said that she could erase memories. Just imagining not being able to remember her mother, the one person who ever really cared for her, was terrifying to think about. But Professor Theo's reaction... was he looking at the Flurry hopefully? And..... did he just say he'd died two times before? He wasn't a Phoenix, that much was for sure, as she would've been able to sense if he was. Were there other creatures that could rebirth after dying? And what memories did he have that could cause him to look at the dragon with such powerful longing in his eyes? There were some things she wished she'd forget, but to have her entire memory wiped clean? Whatever Theo was wishing to erase, it must've been really terrible.
She turned her attention back to Merlissa as the teacher beamed up at Jiyu. Apparently Flurries were really rare creatures. Huh, well that was interesting. Ryse herself certainly hadn't seen a creature like Jiyu before. Perhaps the Flurry would allow the student to draw a sketch of her sometime. If Jiyu stayed around long enough, that is.... she seemed pretty flighty.

Kaname had been left behind by events, but that was nothing new to her. First Theo had told her that the dragon was worried about someone stealing her notes, then some blonde chick she had never seen before showed up and started slinging sass in Theo's direction. This was what she got for not drinking more coffee before leaving her dorm. Or did she drink too much? Drinking too much coffee was impossible for the hybrid.
"OK. There's a lot I'm still missing, but thanks Theo." Kaname thanked the teacher using his proper name this time. It seemed like that she was always a day late and a dollar short, but that was just the normal sequence of events. Hopefully the faculty could get a handle on this situation because the hybrid could not.

She had properly dealt with everything and there was no cost in telling her abilities since she had more potent ones and the closest pack to this place was protected by herself. If any of the other packs would be endangered? Well they'd have to go somewhere near the spine first, where she could intercept and eradicate them in a way not many of her kind were willing to do. "It was simply most convenient." more fighting could have ensued if she was not open, so for the moment being open to an extent about herself but not anyone else of her pack was the best option. For now? She wouldn't even mention not being alone in the world currently, sure she had implied she'd interacted with others of her own but so far she'd given them no confirmation she still lived with her own. "And yes, though a complete wipe can be risky for the target so I typically just target what I need as it is also extremely hard to retrieve any memory erased by me in the cases were its even possible." that was kind of the point of the power, to keep the world from being able to find them by erasing their existence from the minds of others whenever possible. She even knew some of her kind who would erase the memory of rumors or fairy tails including their kind. Scared that was how they all lived, but she didn't like living that way. "Probably not me." if her mentor had seen one, than it had to be a rather large one, went meant an incredibly old one perhaps even old enough to be loosing its senses considering it had not attacked the mentor to erase his memories. "I'm the only Flurry I've heard of willing to fly low around other species, so the one he saw must have been at least twice my size and that is an age thing." she wasn't going to let them think she was hundreds of years old, but she would have to ask where the mentor saw this other flurry before to see if she could identify it. "Since it didn't attempt to erase his memories it may have been old enough it was loosing its senses flying to wherever it wanted to live out it's last few days, and had no clue it'd been spotted." she figured that was most likely. No other species was dumb enough to go out in a storm heavy enough to dampen her kinds senses right?
Her wings closed around her body causing a light foggy glow to encase her the appendages quickly moving back outwards until they vanished into the back of a figure now humanoid. In the place of the large dragoness now stood a girl who appeared in her teens, deep blue emotionless optics, skin pale as death, and hair white as snow with a shimmering white thin dress to match. Jiyu went to take a step forward but quickly found that she fell into whoever was closest to her, seemingly not adjusted to her own body now. "I apologize, its been years since I've done this, leaves me a little like a newborn horse until I settle into it." after her last out of species relationship years before, with a beautiful Kasha who ended it by trying to eat her? Jiyu had not taken on a humanoid form since she had only interacted with her own kind for sometime after that until today. "The anatomy of this body is morphed and compressed to resemble that of humans closely as possible so it should give your friend something more familiar to work outwards from if she can heal the damage." her eyes were so heavy now. she had not abused her powers or anything but suddenly compressing her draconic form into this body for the first time in years without any preplanning or care? Took it out of her. "I wouldn't be surprised nor disappointed if she can only do a little at most though." After-all her kind hadn't interacted for so long and she'd be stabbing her kind in the back if she just summoned one of their anatomy books to let someone else read. Considering she was still unsteady the girl had not yet let go of the person she'd fallen into.

Theo fell silent after his question was answered, reflective and distant as he stored it away to mull over later. If wasn't often that the man could close out the outside world since it was his job to be hypervigilant, but any words spoken around him or to him were muted for a small amount of time. Wouldn't it be nice to start over fresh in this world without the baggage of the old one dragging him down, giving him days where he wondered if he should even bother getting out of bed? He always got up and found something to do, but the endless reminders of his sufferings made him feel as if he was carrying around a boulder ten times his size. There were days where the weight was so great, even a treasure hoarder like Theo could consider trading it all just to be rid of it. He could always find more once he re-learned how to find them, right?
The teacher was shook from his mental vacation by Jiyu's sudden form change. "Whoa!" he squawked, eyes widening. Yes, he knew nearly all species could transform into a humanoid form. Even though his species was confusing to him at first arrival in Skiagis, even he had quickly regained his human form. And yes, his human form was quite different from his other form. So really, his surprise was unwarranted entirely other than he'd never really seen someone change right before his eyes, nor a size change that drastic. Now she was so small...and starting to fall over! Theo was quick to step forward, catching her before she could meet the bottom of the crater she'd created. He'd offer his support as she needed it, should she accept it, which she seemed to be doing at the moment. "I can help you to the nurse, if you want. I'm sure she can do something for you, Flurry or not."

"A... Flurry?" Kaname asked the group. She had never heard of a "Flurry" in the context of a species before. The only Flurry she knew about was an ice cream treat from a restaurant she had been to a few times before. At the risk of having her head bitten off by the blonde, she decided to ask Theo. "Hey Theo, what's the big deal about this Flurry? And why are they so rare?" Kaname asked the only faculty member that she was sort of familiar with. Merlissa said that the last time one had been spotted was a full century ago. That alone made them kind of a big deal.
