'Erida!' Riuna called to me as I was about to went into the classroom.

'Riuna... Hurry or else you'll be late.'

'Wait up!!' Riuna ran into the classroom barely late and sat on her seat.

A week has passed since the entrance ceremony ended. I was a 10th rank student! Fortunately, the people in my class aren't those who look down on others much and I got along with them pretty fine. Riuna and Zen is also in the same class as mine, they helped me get used to my new life quickly. Our homeroom teacher, Mr.Webner, is also a very kind earth magician. He's very patient for one, and very understanding.

We get different study theme for each color class. Blue Class is for Elemental Magic. We study different cases of nature and its balance, manipulation, and the theme for new students, SpellCrafts.

As I was walking to my next class, I noticed something was following me. And suddenly it became a chase. I tried going to my classroom, but the door won't open.

'you shall not past, dragon child.' a voice rang in my head. It wasn't the black dragon's voice. It's much, much deeper and colder.

Hearing the word "dragon child" made me panic. I turned around, and then I saw the origin of that voice. A creature I don't know, made of purple and green mist. I tried to escape, but I ended up running around the whole academy. I kept running, until I reach a dead end. I was freaking out. I don't want to die like this! Suddenly the mirror next to me glowed. 'Jump in!' the black dragon told me, and I did so.

The world turned white, I teleported into a foreign place filled with trees and plants. Is this... the forbidden edge? No, this place is much calmer and warm. I continue to walk straight to a near path way. And what it leads to, is a place so unbelievably beautiful but at the same time sad.

'What in the world?'
