The iron gates of The Arcanium Institute rise, runes shimmering in the charged air. you passes through, their trunk rattling over cobblestones, merging into the stream of anxious initiates. In the vaulted assembly hall, the Arch-Chancellor's constellated robes command a hush. Then, Elemental Control begins. Sparks flare, sleeves singe, but beside you, a boy with sharp grey eyes and tousled dark hair lifts a hand. A flame hangs motionless in the air. He offers no gloating smile. When he catches you watching, his gaze lingers—cool, detached, inscrutable—before he turns away, leaving a silence thicker than the arcane energy humming around them.
