- It's really nice to meet you, girls! My name is Hakare and I'm from the Water Clan... well, obviously, there is no other choice, considering that Earth and Wind Clan sent their students at the same time here and the Heaven Seer students live in their homes – Hakare was a kind of girl who never knew when to shut up. It was clear from the first minute.

- I'm Kianna – the Wind girl didn't seem to be that interested in Hakare, she started unpacking her things without another word. So... she turned towards us.

- I'm Sarah from the Clan of Silver Miners...

- You can use that introduction! This means you must be a master's daughter – Hakare started. Poor Sarah couldn't even talk anymore.

- Yes...

- This is so fantastic! I come from a simple family and now I am so embarrassed... I am sharing a room with an important person, this is crazy!

- Oh gods – I whispered. This just made me a target... Hakare turned immediately to me and I had to introduce myself.

- Winnie...

- That's your name? – she had no shame, it seemed. Not much people dared to cross this limit and ask about my strange name. It was just so... private, maybe that's the word for it. So private that people usually just got over it.

- Yep, it's my name – I nodded as I threw my package onto the last free bed. Great, I'm under the window, hoped they liked air because I definitely liked it. The window would be opened every time.

- I've never heard of a name like that – Hakare pushed me one more.

- That's probably just my nickname – I shrugged.

- Nickname?

- Winnie was found when she was only eight. She didn't remember anything about herself and the only word she knew was "winnie". Our grandmaster who brought her home decided to call her Winnie then – Sarah explained. I tried to don't even listen to this conversation because Hakare started to ask a billion question from Sarah, after seeing that I would never answer them. I saw Kianna looking at me while I was trying to look busy with unpacking.

- Any questions? – I looked at her challenging. She better learned her place sooner than later... She held her hands up.

- Nothing at all – she shook her head and I could go back to organizing the little amount of things I had. While Sarah came with a luggage and a big backpack, I only had a smaller backpack. My whole life could be fit into it... I hated it so much.

I heard that the dinner would be later and we had free time until then, so I loosened my short corset that I was wearing above my short kimono. Our country was rich in different clothes styles – which meant we copied and stole a lot from other countries and ages -, but in the Palaces of the great Clans, usually traditional priest clothing and kimonos were the trend. The most important thing was to cover up as much skin as one could. Especially with the Heaven Seers.

But I had some crazy short pieces in my backpack that could make the guys back in the Palace of Rocks go crazy, their eyes popping out from their eye sockets. I supposed I would be expelled within two minutes if I wore that now. The committee members told us to be extra traditional here and try to be as silent and humble as we could. Oh, gods. I had no chance.

- You have a fine body, Winnie – Kianna looked at me once more when I took my short kimono off. I was wearing trousers, of course, with boots up to my knees. And a black sleeveless top which was skinny fit.

- Oh, I know – I grinned devilishly as I hopped onto my bed, laying on my belly, grabbing my favorite book and started reading.

- This will be helpful with finding a nice boy here – Hakare giggled a little.
