This is a stage in a witch and wizard’s life where they come to a decision of not only what course they want to take in magic, but also discovering familiar that will choose to bond with you depending on your choice of course. I hope you all find the familiar best suited to you.
Into The Woods (Chapter 1.2)

“It is my job, but I’m in the middle of…” He blinked at them through his bottle-thick glasses. “Of…” Orthelo tried again, but then a hesitant look followed some hope that etched his face. “Freshmen, huh…?” The red-head reached forward to gently take the book from Piper’s hands, and she rose her brows at his 360 attitude change. “School History? Why on earth would you two be interested in something like this?” The red-head asked carefully, thoughtfully…It was curiosity, the sound of someone forming plans in their head. Piper glanced at Abilard and Liv, raising a shoulder in a uncertain shrug. Do they tell him, or not? He was the librarian…Chances were he knew where the ‘record’ books were since they so clearly weren’t out in the open.
~~~
(I am actually quite curious as to where Thomas is headed to. I suppose we will discover in due time, however.)
-
“uh…We jus’ want ta learn aboot the area surroonding the schuil…Geography stuff.”
-
“Surroundings, huh?” He looked a bit suspicious. “You mean the forest out there, then. That’s the only geographically interesting thing around.” Orthelo laughed, and it wasn’t exactly pleasant to hear as he handed the book over. “Not that I care. Hell, I myself have a bit of interest in that forest…after what happened, that is.” His eyes glazed over a bit in thought. “Y’know something, after the first bonded of every year occurrences around the forest happens more often…Peoples rooms who’re near the woods claimed to hear screams at night from there, begging and the sound of someone–a girl, maybe, pleading…as if Stephanie Blanc is still back there somewhere, screaming for help. Sometimes they say they hear a horse’s shrill cry of bloody-murder..The Vex, maybe?” He shook his head, “It’s really hard to believe Steph and Vex is gone, you know? I mean, I never really knew her that well but we used to talk a little in Gardening. For a light magic major she wasn’t all that bad with plants, as expected.” He sighed a bit sadly.  Piper’s eyebrows rose, “You knew her?” “Sure I did. She’s not just some kind of rumor, not some kind of myth! She was as real as us. Although I’ll never know what made her go back there…It makes me a bit curious as to what was so important to go against all the rules…” He looked at Liv specifically, “Do you really plan on going back there? I won’t stop you if plan to, just know its a really stupid idea.”
-
“I….” Liv stuttered and gulped,”Um,”(Liv said Um) Abilard spoke up,”Were just satisfyin are curiasety nathing mare,” His nose twitched as he semi lied in a gruff tone.
-
“Well, if you say so.” Brown eyes slid over them as he stepped back, brows furrowed and a look of slight dissapointment and thought mixed on his face. “So let me get this clear, you have no plans of entering? Because there’s only one way to get in, if that’s what you’re after…” His tone led off suggestively,
Piper’s eyes widened at the subtle offer. “You know how?”
-
Thomas neared the end of the tunnel. As he crawled over a small ledge he pushed a small wooden panel open and brushed away some cobwebs. And here it was. The forbidden Library. Quietly he crawled out of the hole in the wall and looked around. The coast was clear. Slowly he stood up and walked over to the nearest bookshelf. He pulled out two thick, leather bound books and placed Incantations Tenebris (the book that In gun was reading from) being the row of books. He slid the other two back in.

(Somehow I’m not surprised. Of course, the library will be properly introduced for the main plot here very shortly anyways~! Entry, however, will be more realistically set for  a school of magic. We’ll have to put a bit more fight into it. Also~! If you’re gonna bond now would be a good time to get that started as the story may lead away from the school a bit.)
“Really? Well, then…” A smile curved Orthelo’s lips, “I know a little about that forest. I know that they go more in-depth in the forbidden library…” He nodded, “Yes, there is a forbidden library here in this school. Of course its ‘forbidden’ for a reason so students aren’t allowed in there.” He let his eyes scan the room, “However, I can help you to get in there which in turn will help you get to that forest. If I remember correctly, there was a part of the wards that was weak due to Stephanie’s sloppy spell. The location, however, is unknown and also the affects of her and her familiar’s magic on the ward is really unknown…but it would be in that library.” He put his hands upon his hips, “As the librarian here I’ve seen the teachers open the forbidden library before on accident. There’s a enchantment on it, however, and you’ll need a certain amount of power–persons, familiars, to get in. If you have the power I can get you that spell no problem…but there’s a catch…”
“Deal!” Piper found herself saying before she could stop herself. “Deal, deal! What do you want?” She nudged Liv. “Right, Liv? We’ll do anything hmm?”
-
“uh, Aye,” She nodded. (I think I know when Liv and Abilard are gonna bond 😀 Cant tell though so its a surprise X3)
-
(I can’t wait~! :3) “Great. What is it you want, then?” Piper asked excitedly and the boy sighed at her enthusiasm. “Just some mandrake root water…from the cellar downstairs..”
-
“too da celler,” Abilard hopped toward it, Liv followed him.
-
“The cellar should be accessible by the outer window of the kitchen! There will be a door outside in the ground. B-Be careful…” He called after them, and Piper shrugged and followed closely behind the two.
-
“Thank ye,” Liv called back to him, they reached the cellar entrance.
-
Thomas gave another look around. Quickly but quietly he exited the Library. He pushed open the small panel to get back into the regular library. To draw suspicion away from him (in case anybody saw him) he quickly picked out some old history books about illusion magic and made his way over to the librarian to check the books out.
-
Raven slowly got up and grinned at the book he got, <i>The Book of Flying. </i>He walked over to the librarian’s desk and waited in line.
