Saun 6, Arc 721
Saun in Scalvoris, the Mortalborn decided as he woke up that morning, shortly before dawn as he usually did – although the change from night to trial was harder to notice now since one of the suns was always in the sky – was nigh on unbearable. He was not usually someone who complained about the weather – compared to all the other things that were going on in the world it was a minor concern at best – but the sweltering heat made it a little harder to enjoy life. Xiur’s Star ensured that he woke up feeling rested after only four breaks; he wasn’t sure what his sleep would have been like without it though.
Since he’d arrived in Scalvoris Town – he held guest lectures at the local university on a regular basis – he’d taken to always bathing first thing in the morning. Fortunately, the elite room at the Knight’s Rest came with private facilities so that he didn’t have to wait in line. After he had eaten breakfast in the common room – he had decided on a cool fruit juice rather than his usual cup of tea or coffee with hint of vanilla - he changed into clothes that were appropriate for work, a white suit made of a comparatively light material that would not be too unpleasant to wear.
In Viden, he often wore darker colors, here such a thing was out of the question in his opinion though.
The Mortalborn checked the notes that he had made one last time – he would mostly be talking about Blood Magic in general rather than his own work that trial – and then he finally left the inn and made his way through the streets of Scalvoris Town and towards the university. He was looking forward to his class, greatly so – once upon a time, teaching had just been a duty for him, but nowadays he enjoyed sharing his knowledge with others – but for just a few moments, his thoughts went back to the events of the previous trial regardless.
A soft smile was visible on his face for a moment as he remembered how he had danced on the beach, in the rain and under a rainbow sky, and then he quickened his pace. He could already feel the heat that would only get worse the closer it got to noon; the walls of the university would offer at least some protection from that. It was slightly cooler inside.
Once he had arrived at his destination, he quickly made his way to the cafeteria in order to get something to drink – that was something that was particularly important on a trial like this one – and then he found the room that he would be holding his class in. He wrote the topic of his class down on the blackboard that was located at the front, and then he sat down at the desk, removed his notes and his writing materials from his leather satchel and waited for his students to arrive.
