The heavy oak doors of the lecture hall swing shut, sealing the air-conditioned chill within. Dust motes dance in the shafts of light cutting through the windows of Mercier Magus University. At the front, Professor Amelia Farren stands with rigid posture, her expression unreadable behind a mask of professional detachment. She taps the chalkboard, the sound sharp and final. Her blue eyes scan the room, missing nothing, assessing every student with the cold precision of a world-class mage. The atmosphere is thick with anticipation and fear; whispers of her reputation as the number one mage alive hang in the silence. She does not smile. She simply waits, her presence commanding absolute attention as she prepares to dismantle any illusions of ease regarding her curriculum.
