A group of students are in the Academy of Geyze are taking their final exam, among them are Commodus Severus, a legionaire warrior, Sasha Hapian, the niece of the Hapian empress and a mage, Gwen Yi-Sa, a mysterious person who is a transformation warrior, Vyvy Yimh, a dragoon tansformation warrior, and the sisters Alita and Celesia Whisplight, two Lillin mages from the darklands. Thankfully, all of them passed and grouped into a team for the practical exam, being in dropped in by an instructor named Lu and told they need to incapacitate 5 baby behemouths to pass, Commodus and Sasha argue over the leadership, eventually it being given to Commodus to Sasha's chagrine, the group kills all 5 behemouths, barely.

During the exam for some reason all of the spirits leave the area for a short time, and Gwen changes genders, something only Vyvy and Commodus knew that happened. They pass but are told they passed at the lowest rank of their class. Graduation and their first assignment will be coming in 5 days.


Verse 2, M1

The team grows together over the next few days, learning more about each other, and Vyvy and female Gwen show signs of closeness as they swim with the twins. It also seems they know each other from a few months before as Vyvy has been spying on her and one of the demons asks Vyvy to keep an eye on Gwen.


Verse 3, S.2: Session 2: Ceremonies

4-7-5990:

The group, on the day before their graduation decide to go for a small team building execise, going out into the woods for a hike. During the hike they are bushed and Gwen is kidnapped by Amazons, the group chases after them and after a tough fight catch up and save Gwen, the Amazonians acting odd, saying Gwen is their property, the Amazonians being incapacitated and brought back to the Academy for the proper authorities to know.


4-8-5990:

Lu tells the group that the Amazonians were rogue agents, acting alone when they attacked on neutral ground, they are also told they are late for graduation and the group most race to the ceremony, being given badges and some kind words by the mysterious headmaster, Commodus being made leader and Sasha being his XO, and are given their first mission, going to the Hapian Kingdom to investigate the Hapian-Kumen mining operations. Their Tamaes soon meet with each of them, off the books, due to their assignment locations.


Verse 4, S.3: Session 3: Beginning Assignment

4-10-5990 CE:

The group, after much anticipation are finally given their first assignment by Miss Lu, she explains they are to examine the Hapian-Kumen mining operations. After being giving horses for each they set out, Gwen looking nervous due to her recent Amazonian experiences. While they are leaving they are approached by a small group of riders who Commodus hails, and they reveal themselves to Amazonians headed by one of the Amazonian tamae. The group is given a talisman, giving them the Amazonian Queen's protection due to the attack prior to graduations.

After this the group continues along to the mine closest to the Academy in the Northern Plains of the Hapian Kingdom. They hail down the foreman and various Hapian and Kumen management types, Commodus giving over the lead to Sasha who wrangles them a guide in a Hapian underling who gives them a tour, during which all appears in order, Vyvy has a chat with a spirit who backs this up as she seems willing and enjoying her job provinding power and the group exits, setting up camp outside.

4-14-5990 CE:

The past days the group have gone to 2 other mining ops, both showing the same, all seems a little too perfect as they arrive at the final mine, only a short east of the Hapian capital and do a final inspection, much like the previous three, Commodus acquires a work schedule of it as they are leaving, while Gwen and Vyvy have a conversation over how this seems rather suspicious, which Sasha ends, stating that if they plan on looking for dirt or hidden mines the capital would be the best place to start.

Commodus makes a proposal to ride to the capital immediately which is accepted. The group arrives at the Captial late at night, Sasha procuring a flying carriage, as well at a stay at the palace due to her family ties, the group is on guard as they split to sleep for the night in the Hapian palace.


Verse 5, M2

Arriving at the palace, the group is treated to fabulous times and people; Sasha is reunited with her cousins, Princess Celes and Eve and drawn into a web of intrigue. Celes seems to warn of her dangers in the castle, while Eve seems interested in her fabulous body. The others are invited out to dinners and experiences with Eve, while Celes spends time in her study with Sasha, talking about private matters that cannot be typed here. The others meet Mayde, Celes private maid who sent to them and brought them to a private floor, and they all are made comfy. Female Gwen and Vyvy grow closer, male Gwen having not made a showing since the mining operations, and Gwen makes an effort to learn how the flying carriages work.

Soon Sasha is made to meet the Empress, while the others enjoy dinners and the company of nobles, and even Sasha meets nice noble gentlemen such as Gerald.


Verse 6, S.4: Session 4: Courting Danger

4-17-5990:
After a few days of relaxation the group is now being allowed to meet with the officials of the Hapians, given a list of three during their breakfast, two lower officials and the highest advisor to the queen, Malfoy.

Both of the officials tow the line as it has been given to them. At some point during the meeting something has dispersed the spirits similar to what happened during the groups first test, and the Hapians send out guards to find the source while the group is lead to the Advisor named Malroy. They are let in by two fauna servants, a cat named Neekito and a fox named Kito, and ask Malroy their questions as he also repeats the official stances, at the end of the meeting as they are being lead out Commodus asks Malroy to speak in private for unknown reasons. It seems in the end the team will learn nothing more except that they ask Princess Celes to meet them privately in a last ditch effort to see if they can learn anything about hidden places.


Verse 7, M3

Princess Celes takes most of the day, assigned to look into the spirits due to the uncanny power of the Hapian line, getting drunk with her cousin Sasha at one point, and letting it be known it seems it has something to do with the group, and that it looks like suspicions are falling on one of her maids and that she plans to redirect it to the two lower, likely corrupt officals they met, since Malfoy is too high up to touch. The two family members talk uncannily for a few hours before she goes back to work, a hinge of sadness in her eyes.


Verse 8, S.5: Session 5: Courting Danger

4.17.5990 CE:

The group waits, having a planned meeting with Princess Celes, eventually being gathered by Mayde and brought to her quarters where they discuss the mines, Celes revealing they aren't what they seem and gives the group files proving such. Gwen sneaks a few books, including a lineage of the leading families of the Kingdoms, for some reason Sasha and Celes' fathers and hidden with magic.

4.18.5990 CE:

The group is awoken by Princess Eve, who seems to be trying to delay the group from reporting in, offering first a royal breakfast and then to join them in their report, this is deflected by both Sasha and Commodus and is thankfully ended by Celes. Celes offers to take them to one of the undocumented mines which the group accepts and takes a flying carriage too.

At the mine they find a vastly different image than the ones they have previously visited, they land being lain open with massive drills, which is then slightly healed by either the Great Light
Spirit or the Empress of the Hapian Kingdom, the group is eventually scared away a patrol and make a hasty escape to their meeting, which they are now late for. At the meeting they are met by Hapian emissaries, trying to take their report directly, but they ignore them and give their report to Lu and the Tamae directly, choosing to keep the secret mines to themselves for now, though Sasha advises greater scrutiny of the Kumen.

They are given their next assignment, going to the Naturalists to speak with them about the mines, and also to learn about dragon training and to find out about the potential problems in their kingdom.


Verse 9, M4

Meeting with their Tame before going back to the Hapian Palace for one more night, the group is invited to an informal dance, which has all types of dancing, as well as a cocktail party, to celebrate their last night, the Hapians thinking they didn't report them in, not knowing that Vyvy likely did to her Tamae. Princess Celes tries to get one of the girls to take her to the party, but due to the time limits and the fact Malfoy ends up taking her, none do it soon enough and she ends up having to go with Malfoy, which it seems likely she will end up marrying, much to her apparant unhappiness, despite the fact she keeps a masked face. Gwen and Vyvy go to the dance with each other, Gwen apparantly unhappy, despite the fact Neekito and Kito ask out Vyvy, saying that Malfoy wants them to experience the dance, and they wish to do so with Vyvy. The twins go out with mid-ranking to high ranking twins, who seem genuinely interested in them and Sasha goes with Gerald, who seems to truly care about her.

However, it seems that things are souring between her and her cousin Eve due to her treatment of Celes.
