Maolik Academy  Most people only know of the world as Ice or Ash. A barren wasteland, unfit for life. But, if you head south, from Ice, cross the Deaths Tundra, survive to trek across the Ice Bridge, and live through the Forgotten Forest, you’ll come to a beautiful place. To reach this place from Ash, you must cross the Plains of Fire, Cinder’s Gorge, and Golems’ Mountains.
This place is beautiful, and overflowing with life. Shiza is a city full of the hustle and bustle of its daily life. It is a sprawling city, full of many different species. Many come from far and wide to visit, and especially to attend the School of Maolik. The forest that surrounds Shiza is the home of many different peoples, and each always sends their best student to study at the School of Maolik.
Only the best of the best of the best of Mages-In-Training are let into Maolik. And only those that survive graduate. Students of many different races and backgrounds gather in peace under the roof of one building to learn and master the most complex forms of magic.
Because magic usually involves an intense connection to nature and the environment, almost all students go nowhere without their Familiar. Familiars are intelligent animals that only the chosen mage can speak mind-to-mind with. Familiars are exceedingly important in studying and the School of Maolik.
Will you graduate?

I have always wanted to be a mage. Magic users a valued in my village. My village lies several miles outside the main city of Shiza, in the Forbidden Forest. Recently, a sickness has descended upon my people, and our healers have been unable to cure it. I come to Maolik to, hopefully, discover a way to end the suffering of my people. I especially want to save a particular person, though he no longer wants my help; and I grieve for the loss of his affection.Play it again, please?

And of course you would be right. I come from a small tribe of elves that have been drawn to the magic of dragons. They have lived among the dragons and forged their magics from the dragon's own magic. As the long passage of time went on, the dragons magic began to affect the physical appearance of the elves. We then gained the name of dragon elf. This also explains my name Silvergaze. I was born with silver eyes. It was strange, even among my people, to have a child with silver eyes. I was brought before the dragons to see what the thought of it. It even astounded them but, they knew what it might mean. The told my parent about the silver dragon. The dragons had no set leader of them all but, if the did, the silver dragon would be the one. He was old beyond the measure of any dragon and no other dragon was ever born the same color. They believed that the silver dragon had blessed me and that they should expect great things from me. But they were never to tell me the full story behind my eyes and let me grow to believe I was no better than any other in my tribe. Then of course, they sent me here to Maolik. Play it again, please?

 Katia Nighthunter
Katia looked around at the city-goers as she rode atop Nina. The street was congested with people passing back and forth along the road. They stared back at the elf riding the Nighthunter with looks of ranging emotions and thoughts. Katia saw both acceptance and rejection in those many pairs of eyes. WIth a sigh, she tipped her head to the left. Nina followed her mental direction change, taking them through a large iron gate and onto the shcool grounds.
Students swarmed the front courtyard, calling to each other and talking in groups or, in the case of elder students, showing off the new students. They all varied in size, shape, species, and color. And their Familiars were just and wide-ranged. Nina narrowly avoided stepping on someones little wyvern, who chattered at her irritably before moving on.
"I'm not liking this crowd," Nina told her rider.
"I know, I know," Katia replied aloud, patting the cat's shoulder, "but we have to get through it to get to the actual building itself." The elf chuckled at her sarcasm. "Lets go then," she added as the crowd began moving toward the front doors, heading inside.

Darek Silvergaze
Darek watched his surroundings as he made his way through the city. 'How much longer do I have to stay up here?' Denrek said through their mind link.
"Not much longer, Den. We should be there soon." Darek said to calm them both down. Neither one of them had ever been outside the mountains. Darek had been both frightened and fascinated with coming out of the mountains to see a city with so many people.
So had Denrek, but Darek feared for his safety. Weather he be Darek's familiar or not, Dragons were feared and misunderstood beings. He knew that if he let Denrek come out of hiding, he could very well get attacked.
Then he saw it. The large gates to the school. "Ok, we are there. Come down and land in the courtyard and try not to scare anyone... Or show off."
Darek entered the courtyard as he saw Denrek cut through the clouds with his wings tucked to his side. He sped to the ground with great speed. Right before it would have been to late, he opened his wings and flapped the down real hard. He came to a stop just a few feet off the ground. Denrek softly touched down near Darek. He stood as tall as a horse next to Darek and was about twice as long. His scales shown with the water that was still on them from the clouds. Darek shook his head as he saw that some of the students were now staring. Some of the older students were intrigued while most others were frightened by the sudden dragon appearance.
"What did I just say about showing off?" Darek implored at Denrek.
'I was not showing off. I was only in a hurry to get down here.' Denrek said as he looked away from Darek.
Darek could tell that it was only part true but, he did not pursue it. "Come on Den. We need to move on before we attract any more attention." Darek hopped up to the spot just between Denrek's neck on his shoulders that made a perfect spot to sit as Denrek walked to the front door.

Katia Nighthunter
Katia watched the dragon land with piqued interest. "When was the last time you saw a dragon?" she asked her familiar. Nina shook her head,as if shaking off water.
"its been years." the cat replied, flicking her ears. Katia ndded.
"I want to get closer," the elf said, stretching upwards for a better view. The crowd was still moving toward the large oaken doors and Katia was growing tired of the crowd pressing in on her on all sides. With a sigh, she pushed herself up on Nona's back to stand just behind her shoulder blades. "I'm going on ahead," she said, "follow if you want." with that, she jumped off Ninas back, over the heads of the nearest students and into the crowd.
Hurrying quickly, Katia wove through the students around her making her way toward the front of the group and closer to the dragon she had seen before. The front doors of the school were huge, looming over them in an intimidating way. Katia caught her breath as she stepped over the threshold of the building. The energy that hummed in the structure of the castle was immense. The very stone practically sang with the magic coursing through itself.
Nina came up beside her elf, her eyes drawn to the magic that played at the edges of her vision. Nina knew most people couldn't see natural magic, but she could tell that Katia could feel it. Being a wood elf she was experienced with nature magic and could deffinitely tell when it was present.

Darek Silvergaze
Darek watched as others began to stare and gauk as the came near Denrek. 'You would think they had never seen a dragon before.' Darek sighed
"Den, our people rarely leave the mountains. There has been no need to for many years. It is likely that they have never seen a dragon in their life. They are not like my people that see more than one each day. Anyway, you should not let it get to you. As long as you don't eat another familiar we should be old news in just a few weeks." Darek said as he gave him a pat on the shoulder.
Denrek looked around him, still a bit uneasy around so many. 'There should be no problem finding you a mate here. There are many here that look appeasing." Darek gave him a quick punch on his shoulder. "You know that my kind dose not choose mates the same way you would. It is more of what is inside that counts."
Denrek swung his head to the left and almost hit a wood elf. Denrek stopped his fidgeting and looked at her with one of his sapphire eyes. 'What about this one? I can feel that she holds much potential inside her.'
Darek tried not to look down at her but, he could still feel the slight sting of heat on his cheeks as Denrek forced a mental image of her through to him. "Behave Den." Darek grunted. But Denrek simply cocked his head as he continued to look at the wood elf.
((Yes, the wood elf is Katia.))

Katia Nighthunter
Katia stepped discretely sideways, as Nina had informed her of the dragon who nearly bumped her. She smiled glancing up at the dragon, who was looking back at her. "You should see the boy too," Nina told her, a chuckle rumbling deep in her chest. Katia's gaze shifted and came to rest on the other elf. Her smile became a grin when she saw him. Among her tribe of elves the color silver was a sign of luck and prosperity.
They were still walking, heading deeper into the school. The entire crowd was heading to their assigned dorms, at least Katia was pretty sure they were. "get back up here before something steps on you," nina said as a rather large pegasus passed them, "I don't want to have to explain why you didn't survive your first day here."
Katia's attention was diverted from the boy and the dragon as she rapped the cat on the shoulder with the back of her hand. She climbed back up onto the nighthunter, who was roughly as tall as her chest at the shoulder. A shiver ran across her skin, and Katia realized how much colder it was inside the school comparred to her home in the Forbidden Forest. The wood elf glanced back up at the boy before pulling a cloak from the pack that Nina carried on her hind quarters, and wrapped it around herself.
Nina informed her that theor room would be on the right of the next turn and they would have to split from the majority of the group. Katia nodded, patting her familiars shoulder. She looked back up at the boy again. "You will be very successful one day," she said, offering a soft smile.

Darek Silvergaze
Darek looked down at the elf that Denrek was talking about. His silver eyes flickered in the lights. She did seem like she had an interesting air about her.
'The students seem to be splitting off.' Denrek said to Darek. Darek had seen that she had just put a cloak on.
'She must not be used to the change in temperature.' Darek thought for a moment. Darek poked the side of the dragon to get his attention. 'Could you give her a warm breath? That cloak will not insulate her well and one your breaths would keep me warm for hours in cold weather.'
Denrek looked at him for a moment. 'That is because my breath is powered by the magic that I have stored in my chest. I would not give that to any one but you. But, seeing as you insist and I would not want to let her kind words to you go unnoticed, I will do as you request.'
Denrek brought his head down to her level and let out a slow breath from his nostrils. "Denrek noticed that you might be a bit cold. His breath will keep you at a comfortable warmth for a while. I hope that we get a chance to talk some time. Seeing as Denrek seems to have grown a liking to you."
Denrek looked up at Darek. 'How do you get by pulling off that it was my idea?' Denrek said but let it go.

Katia Nighthunter
Katia smiled as the warm air enveloped her. It was just as warm as her home. She looked back up at him "That's very kind of you, thankyou," she said, bowing her head, "its true, my home is actually rather humid and hot. My name is Katia by the way." she held out her hand with a smile.
Nina looked over her shoulder. "Maybe his room is down our hall," she suggested, "maybe you two can get to know each other." she looked back dow the hall as they approached the intersection where they were supposed to turn. "this is our turn. The sign says the first ten dorm rooms are in this corridor," she added. Katia glanced at her familiar, only nodding in response.
