I Feel Hopeless

120 years ago, Skypiercing White Tower in the Eastern Plains took over the Council of Seven, becoming the largest mage organization. The traditional apprenticeship system was slowly replaced by the more advanced and modern academy-based education system. This trend spread to other professions as well. Even the blacksmiths and tailors adopted this new system.

 Using the traditional system to nurture the most basic type of apprentice, knights, blacksmiths or tailors would take at least five years. Even for those with great talents, it would take roughly two to three years as well to master the basics. On this journey, the apprentice could only work for their tutor or master for free. Additionally, they might also need to pay a high fee for their teachings.
