"As you can see, there are different glyphs found in every fabric of life," Luz said, pointing at the board. "If you look closely at a plant, you can find a plant glyph in them. You can find ice glyphs in snowflakes on the knee. Now you can only find ice glyphs inside of natural occurring snow."

Luz Noceda – Blight stood in front of her students, pointing at the board. Two years ago, Hexside offered a new track to teach the old ways of doing magic back during the dark ages. As being the one who discovered glyph magic, Bump decided that Luz should be the one who should teach the class.

Currently, she was teaching where to find glyphs to her glyphs 101 class. In a matter of years, Luz had completely mastered glyphs, and they were a huge help when it came time to taking down Belows. Granted, another emperor took his place, but at least the new emperor wasn't a complete dictator.

One of the first things the new emperor did was legalizing mixed magic and taking away the practice of locking away all other forms of magic when a witch joins a coven. "Now, normally, you will need to draw the entire glyphs for it to work." Luz drew a light glyph and held it up so the class could see, then tapped it.

A small ball of light formed into her hand, causing ooohs and ahh to come out of the students. "Once you're stronger, you can make glyphs by just drawing a circle." The Latina drew a small circle on the board and, after touching it, caused a small ball of light to form.

More oohs came from the students. "When you draw glyphs, you need to make sure you draw it correctly, or it won't work as well or properly. I remember trying to learn plant glyphs and having to"

"AAAGGGGGGHHHHH!!!!"

Luz chuckled to herself. "I guess I still need to time my stories right. Make sure to do your homework on glyph applications, and we will pick this up tomorrow."

The students picked up their books and walked out of the class, some waving to Luz as they did. After waving back, Luz sat at her desk and sighed as she pulled a stack of papers toward her. Out of everything she did as a teacher, grading exams was one of her least favorite things. But the Latina loved teaching people about the lost way of doing magic, so it was worth it. She clicked a pen and started making corrections, humming a song as she did it. When she was about halfway through the stack, her phone dinged. Luz picked up her phone and smiled at her wife's text.

Amity: 'Hey hon. Are the children behaving?'

Luz giggled at her wife's text. Since becoming a teacher, Amity liked to joke about the humans' students being her children. 'Hey, babe. Yes, my glyph 101 students are behaving well. It's my advanced glyph students that are surprisingly the rowdiest.

Amity: Well, that's nothing you can't handle.❤️ What are you doing?

Luz: Grading exams. Uggh. And my advanced glyph students turn in their papers today, so I'm not looking forward to that.

Amity: The great Luz Noceda – Blight doesn't like grading exams or papers.

Luz rolled her eyes and stared at her phone. Sometimes she forgot how sassy her wife could be. But they're so dull. The Latina put down her phone and went back to grading exams. A few moments later, her phone went off.

'Aww. I thought you liked reading?'

The brunette knew her wife was at work enjoying teasing her. 'I do, but sometimes it gets to a point where it feels more like a chore.'

Amity: Well, I got to get back to work. Love you, babe.

Luz: Love you too, honey. The brunette put down her phone and turned her attention back to the stack in front of her. "Glyph magic was invented by the titan. That's incorrect. Glyph magic comes from the Titan. Witches invented it during the old age."
