As the night dragged onward, the Academy seemed to fall asleep as a whole as everyone in some form or another made their way to their rooms to get their nightly rest. As everyone drifted to sleep for the next day, things began moving for the Masters before the sun even had a chance to rise again. The masters began working on making sure that things were prepared, now that it was so much more apparent the guests would be here so soon.
Each particular group were given their instructions, with all the elements having something strangely in common: All were able to, if they wished to avoid their usual chores and classes, to attend the Arena for a large, global battle event to test their powers while working together, fighting alone, and fighting against many different elements. A truly odd notion, but it was also decreed many Lightdwellers would be in place to make sure that no one would meet their end during the battles. Despite the odd scenario, it was clear the masters did not want death to be clear with the guests about.
For Pyromancers, they were in mostly the area of clearing away any monsters wandering the Academy, and standing guard on this particular day. Hydromancers would be working with the Airshifters, clearing the dark weather that they had been having, and taking care of the large amount of rain that was in the area. The Earthshifters were informed that they would need to work around the newcomers airship to clear out a much larger area of land for which the many ships that were due to arrive any day now. Lightdwellers were tasked with all attending the medical areas, and if not there they would be at the tournament to either participate, or to take care of those who had lost and were wounded. The Nightshades ended up getting the most secretive of tasks, which was to keep a very close eye on the village, and the newcomers themselves to see if any information could be gathered. However, it was strictly forbidden to attempt to go on the ship that they had arrived on.
As the sun finally rose on the new day.Tensions rose as well as the tournament was set to begin, and with a few of the guests here already, the scenes were right for a battle to take place to take the minds off what was going on around them. At least for the moment.
