I'll leave my love hidden in the sun
Poking her tongue at him briefly for mocking her high standards of living, Seren let the jest slide and hummed thoughtfully as he explained about the school.
"That's an idea, yeah. Might be worth looking into it. Culture and art as well, even music - if the land itself doesn't attract everyone, then other things might still help draw them in. There is no seat of higher learning available to everyone - Stormbreak has a collegium, but it's barred to mages, just like the rest of the city." As for the Atheneum in the Grounds, the situation was similar, though the reluctance to enter that region might be different for some people.
Then she sighed. "Of course, we can plan anything we like - nothing can be implemented unless someone we trust holds the power of Halo. I don't want to create a draw for Morgan to utilize."
Rubbing at her eyes, Seren felt tired even though the sun had not even begun to set yet. It was a weight settling into her bones, a constant wear of troubled thoughts on subjects that never seemed to end and had no clear path towards resolution. So short was her time in the mortal world, and already she was longing for a break. It did not improve anything that she felt her lack of experience so very keenly. Books and history lessons only went so far in preparation for the realities they were facing here.
