Cassopiea woke earlier than usual, the early morning sun barely peeking over the horizon. Her room was bathed in the soft, golden light of dawn, the silence almost reverent. She felt refreshed after last night’s astral journey, her mind still buzzing with the conversation she had with Marvolo. At least he’s not plotting world domination this week, she thought with a smirk as she went through her morning routine.
Her roommates, Veda and Calliope, were already awake by the time she finished dressing. The three girls moved in synchrony, the quiet of the early hours punctuated by the rustle of fabric and the clink of potions and books being gathered.
After a quick breakfast, they all headed toward the mess area, where the entire student body had gathered, buzzing with anticipation. The air crackled with nervous energy, students whispering in hushed tones about what the day might hold.
At the center of the gathering stood Guru Maa Aarti, her presence commanding as she looked over her students with a calm yet serious gaze. She raised her hand, and the murmurs quieted instantly.
“My dear students,” Guru Maa Aarti began, her voice warm yet authoritative. “Today marks three months since you embarked on your magical education at Shambhala Vidyasrama. And in recognition of this, we have prepared a challenge for you.”
The students around Cassopiea stiffened, exchanging nervous glances. Cassopiea felt a pang of excitement mixed with trepidation.
“Our esteemed founder has decided to test each of you,” Guru Maa Aarti continued. “Your challenge is simple yet formidable: today, you will venture into the icy Himalayan mountains to locate the master himself—the man, the myth, the legend, the immortal teacher.”
A ripple of murmurs spread through the crowd, quickly stifled as Guru Maa Aarti held up her hand once again. “This will be no ordinary task. The mountains are treacherous, and this journey will test your courage, resourcefulness, strength, and most importantly, your faith in yourself.”
Cassopiea’s pulse quickened. She felt Calliope shift nervously beside her, while Veda’s normally calm demeanor showed signs of unease.
“This mission will be dangerous,” Guru Maa Aarti added, her voice growing somber. “It could even be life-threatening. But do not fear. If at any point the challenge becomes too difficult, aid will be provided. However, this test is designed to push you to your limits. To succeed, you must have unwavering faith in your abilities.”
Cassopiea felt a knot form in her stomach as the gravity of the challenge sank in. Cassopiea woke earlier than usual, the early morning sun barely peeking over the horizon.
