Today Riley was wearing a beautiful pure white dress that was adorned with golden lace and frills, a full skirt and a tight corset. Agnes had decided to pair everything with some golden necklaces and earrings and Riley quite liked the combination today.

Today Bard was accompanying her to the Mage exam, while Agnes was down in the common sect pinning up posters for the safe house and possibly recruiting some women.

Bard carried the sword, that his Lady was presenting today, firmly yet carefully in his palms and followed behind her as one of the butlers from the Royal palace lead them through to the open field, adjoining the Royal Mage Society's headquarters.

A joyful smile broke out onto Riley's face when she saw Edgar standing amongst a crowd of people. She couldn't help but quicken her pace as she walked towards him, eager to greet and catch up with him.

Bard noticed that she was walking faster, then adjusted his pace to match hers. Bard looked over at who she was so excited to see and was pleased to recognize the young man who had placed second in the Mage tournament. Bard had remembered him as a very earnest and passionate young man, a very skilled Mage with curly green hair and bright lively eyes.

Edgar turned just in time to see Riley walking towards him. Edgar's eyes sparkled even more than their usual sparkle. He practically jumped for joy at the sight of Riley.

"Edgar!" She called out as she jogged the rest of the distance towards him.

"Riley!" He called out, barely containing his excitement.

Riley and Edgar embraced in a big happy hug, and Edgar lifted Riley off the ground making her squeal happily.

"How have you been Edgar?" Riley grinned eager to catch up with her friend.

"It's been like a dream Riley..." His eyes sparkled again. "I have more money than I could have ever asked for... More room than I'll ever need. I can finaly support my parents and pay them back for letting me go to the Mage society. Oh and Riley, I even have a mage tutor!" He said earnestly as he turned back to the man he had been talking to before Riley showed up.

Riley turned to follow his line of sight and thence almost had the wind knocked out of her due to the amazing beauty of the man she saw standing there.

"Let me introduce you to my magic tutor, Lord Elian Von Josselheim." Edgar announced proudly.

Riley was trying not to stare too hard at the lord, but she was finding it impossible to take her eyes away from him. Lord Elian had a more feminin look, which made him both appealing and intriguing. He was the same height as Edgar, which made him on the shorter side of the men in Gismead, he had been blessed wih a full head of gorgeous lavendar hair, that was cut in a straight line just below his shoulders. His skin almost glowed as the light shone on it. His build was slender which complimented his elfin face. Riley couldn't help but be be envious at his plump pink lips and long lavendar eyelashes. Riley thought that he quite literally jumped out of a manga.
