a dream of a savoir

The day of the trip finally came but before the teachers set some rules before we left "alright students listen up we'll be at the forest for a week to judge your skills evenly and justly, you all had a week to gather your group and items, if you don't have a group you will be assigned a knight of the holy order to you to fulfill the groups requirements, if you do not feel confident or are still nervous tell a teacher and we'll assign a knight to your group to interfere if they deem the current fight to dangerous, if you are overwhelmed retreat to the base camp we'll set up outside the forest, when night falls and our journey there you'll have to stay in your group and set up camp and sleep under the same tent or near it, under any circumstances no one will be in the forest when night falls if you are caught doing so there will be punishments unless you are with a teacher or a knight that says its ok there will be checks regularly to see if you are the camp, when night falls at the forest every students will have to exit the forest and sleep at the base camp, we'll be calling everyone into one of the offices in the school to look at your group before we leave" the principal yelled to make it clear to everyone this was a serious and dangerous trip but despite that everyone was still happy and cheerful.

One by one the teachers talked to every student and assigned them a knight if they thought it was necessary "Ivan" the principal yelled. Ivan got up and entered the room "where's your group" the principal said looking at a stack of papers flipping through them "don't have one sir" Ivan said with a sweat dripping down his face though the principal couldn't tell because of his armor "I figured you would say that the holy captain told me of your ability and job as a trainer at the barracks" the principal said laying down the papers Ivan was reviled "but despite your skills I still have to put you in a group" the principal said getting up and walking to the door Ivan died on the inside in his old life he was always entering dangerous areas on his own because he knew of his own rage and how it could still lose control even with his knew armor if it was something that caused him to snap the armor couldn't contain all of the rage he would feel " but instead of putting you with the students I'll just give you two knights to fill the group and I'll give you access to the forest when night falls to make up for this in convince" the principal said opening the door and letting in to two knights one of them was Kenith and the other was a mage from the new attack unit "I'm sure you sir Kenith I was told that he was one of the best knights there and the mage is "mavis spirtsons" she is one of the best healers here" the principal explained "heh to think the master is being grouped with his trainee at least your one of the "best" by the captain's standard" Ivan teased Kenith, the principal and mavis were confused as what just happened.

"alright sense everyone has been grouped and surveyed lets go" the principal yelled the students roared the school provided wagons and everyone was assigned a wagon with the people they knew every student was paired with everyone they wanted. Expect the last wagon which held the knights for the trip Ivan and lily the wagon stayed silent for awhile sense every knight in the wagon knew Ivan they were scared to act out of line "just relax this is a trip not training" Ivan said stretching lily looked at him wondering why he said that every knight exhaled heavily and slumped in the wagon lily was even more confused " so come to think of it I never asked you what you do when your not at school" lily asked Ivan "not much I just train or teach the knights at the holy order barracks" Ivan said causally " so out of every one here you have sparred against" lily asked "everyone here except for the mage but I'm sure she's heard of me" Ivan said lily looked at mavis she was nodded aggressively "but the captain said that sir Kenith said he was one of the best" Ivan teased " well its just you have high standards master" Kenith said he was super tense " I said this is a trip not training so calm down" Ivan said calmly.

"oh I know how about we play a game" lily clapped "and what game would that be" the knights said in unison to break the tension " catch the coin all you have to do is catch it when it gets near you" lily said taking out a coin and imbued it with magic to make it fly around the wagon the knights agreed to play when they looked over at Ivan he was slumped over sleeping " don't mind him he was up for two days doing research" one of the knights whispered "does he usually do that" lily whispered "yeah most of the time, its like he has an agenda of doing research like he's older than he looks" sir Kenith answered.

Meanwhile in elveadore land of the elves "Daaah" the elvish princess woke up screaming "what a terrifyingly interesting dream" she thought "a wounded knight in gilded armor rescuing me interesting indeed" she thought about it more, she got up and got dressed and put on her armor and went to train with her grandfather. they trained for weeks on end to make sure she would be a good queen "princess Sliva you have been asked to visit the king and queen for a mission" a Messager appeared out of the shadows " tell them I'll be there in a minute" she said fixing her hair she went to her fathers room "yes father and mother" she kneeled in front of the king and queen " there has been a lot of magic beast spilling out of the black magical forest we want you to go carefully handle them and find out why there are so many." the king ordered "yes father" she responded the queen got up and walked down the stairs and hugged her "be careful" the queen said crying " I will mother" she said hugging back and walked out gathering a group to help her.
