The ride inside the SIC Transportation Network carriage was surprisingly smooth, given the speeds they were traveling. Larek looked outside the small window-like slit in the wall of the storage compartment where he was currently residing, and he saw the landscape practically fl...

“Those two are going to gather all the other students, which should leave you four free to talk for a moment.”
Gharina’s tone was such that Larek doubted they’d be able to refuse, so they just followed the woman as she slowly walked toward the northern wall of the ...

“Oh, them?” Verne responded, in response to his question about the two that had broken up the potential fight earlier. “They’re Martials from Hilltower that were nearing graduation, so they were sent along to help protect us while they head to the capital for assignment ...

The one good thing that could be said about their transfer from Crystalview Academy and exit from Peratin was that the Dean provided the students – yes, even Larek – with very basic tents within which they could sleep in overnight on their journey. All 64 tents, which was th...
