On the door of the Elemental Studies Classroom are taped two sheets of paper. One appears to be a blank sheet of lined paper, and the other seems to be a letter of some sort.
On the second sheet of paper, these words are written in a cursive script:
Students,
Let me make this quite clear. The elements are not children’s toys. Directing them is not something you do to impress your friends.
The elements are merciless forces of nature. They certainly won’t give you a second chance if you make a mistake.
As the teacher, I have no desire to get into trouble just because some d**n student didn’t know enough to keep himself from spontaneously combusting. If I ever catch a student of mine playing with the elements for fun, I will take suitable actions. Assuming he or she is still in one piece afterwards, that is.
You will work in this class. I don’t care if your best friend has died, if your other teachers have assigned mountains of homework, or if you are fighting a battle for your life. If you take my class, you will complete the assignments you are given promptly and without complaint.
If you agree to all of the above, then fine. Just put your name down on the sign-up sheet. I expect you to show up to the first class. And for the gods' sake, show up on time.
You may drop out of the class any time you want for the first two weeks if the pressure is too much for you. If you wish to drop out afterwards, contact the headmistress if you feel that this subject is worth her time.
Sin cera,
Veradis Merula
