"Yes that is correct." Said the Master Shadow Mage. "You know the queen of the Stalian Empire, Verdiana Angelina Spera the Second of her Name, or more commonly known the Mad Queen, the Dead Queen or the Undead Queen. She is the founder and the more powerful user of this school of magic, able to turn any of her subjects into thinking undead monsters, while also being able to turn any who turn on her into giant bestial creatures who think of nothing but murder and feeding on warm raw flesh." Heinrich turns the page of his book and after reading a couple sentences he continues on. "Many mages, wizards, shamans and the like have grown powerful so powerful that they can destroy entire units of men with a single spell. However the Mad queen is on another level entirely. 8000 of life, and a will to conquer the world. From what we know she had conquered all lands to the south but lately, around 600 years ago she had pointed her armies to the north and the Border Empire stood in her way for every single day of those 600 years. And now we still stand, as we are the only nation strong enough to keep her from storming the rest of the world." He told the students. "Now are there any questions?"

Simon raised his hand "How is it that torture can fuel somebody to live for so long?" He paused fo a second "Are Powerful feelings and emotions somehow related to powerful magics? Or is it just negative emotions, Can people weaponize something like say hope, faith or happiness?"

"Such questions are more for the clergy then the college. However in a way....yes" Heinrich answered. "The gods are a reflection of their worshipers. This is why the Grail Lady is a delicate, gentle woman with a heart as golden as her hair with eyes as blue as the waters she commands. That is what the Britannians believes to be a prime woman, and therefore the the Grail Lady would reflect that. If the Britannians ever decides to turn her into a vengeful war machine, then they must convince the populous that she act in such a manner. However that would be easier said then done. Now any more questions? Yes? No?" He asks

"And what of demons?" Asks Thal abruptly and the atmosphere gets quiet.
"I...do not understand what you mean student. Explain yourself." The teacher demanded.
"If the gods can bend to our will so easily then why can we not do the same with demons?" Thal explained. "You said it yourself that the Mad Queen can create armies of thinking dead, and raise legions of unfeeling corpses to do her bidding, why can she not create an army of demons? I believe we should create our own demonic army with our own minions that we create with our own thoughts to bolster our numbers and take the fight deep into her territory." The professor went quiet for a moment and stroked his chin. It was hard to know what he was thinking, but he soon replied with an answer.
"I will say this with no hint of sarcasm or laughter. Take my words and hold onto them from this point on and never let them go. The Mad Queen. Queen Verdiana Angelina Spera the Second of her Name's fear of what demons could do to her weighs a dozen times more then her craving of the world. " He answered. "Let those words sink in and think before you say anything so foolish." He added. Thal's face turned visibly red as he was shut down by the teacher and Heinrich continued with his lesson. "Now students. I wish for you all to take our a quill and paper. We shall now begin the lesson proper."

??? - Second Year Class
The class studied and took notes as Heinrich droned on and on. While this was going on, an unknown mage throws levitates a piece of paper at Coro and Simon. The piece of paper lands on their desk and inside are the sentences. "Meet me after class. I wish to discuss some things with you both."

Simon - Second Year Class
Simon was lazily lounging back on his chair watching as the old man spoke of things he already studied in the library when the paper landed. He gave some shifty eye to Coro mostly as a joke then slowly unwrapped the paper when Heinrich wasn't looking "Hey Coronaria, Looks like you've got a secret admirer" he joked before sliding her the paper.

"Honestly there's probably more then one i am beautiful after all. But i doubt id find someone here that would interest me." Coro picked up the paper simon slid to her and read it.

Simon - Second Year Class
Simon tried to suppress a chuckle which bought him the ire of the teacher making him avert his eyes in shame. After Heinrich turned his back Simon spoke "Ahh, you didn't tell me about them! Any of them hot that you can send my way." He joked " Well you know how adventures go, If a mysterious note lands on your desk with no idea who it was from asking you to go to some secluded place you have to go right."

??? - Outside the Second Year Classroom
After the class the Shadow Master Mage dismissed the second years. The class soon packed up their things and left. Most headed for areas such as the library or immedately to the city itself while a single stayed behind, waiting for the two. Thal had stayed behind with his bodyguard near him, nervously tapping his fingers on the wall as he waits for Simon and Coro.

The laughter and chatter with Coro died down once Simon realized who else was left in the classroom. He slowly made his way over to Thal and bowed deeply "Good evening Lord Thal" he averted his eyes from Thal "What is it you need of me ohh Heir of great house Rando."

Thal - Second year class
"Nothing much. I merely have business for the both of you. For Simon, with much...." Thal stopped for a second and took a deep breath before putting on a fake smile. "I am proud to tell you that your book had become rather popular in Verdanthome amongst the noblility and my house's patriarch believes that it will beneficial to...get to know you better would be one way to put it." He said. "Needless to say the house's patriarch reminded me that if there is anything within my power to do for you then do not hesitate to ask." He said the last part with an obvious uneasiness and hesitation.

Simon - Second Year Classroom
"Ahh I see" A thought came to Simon and he spoke slowly "Maybe we should get to know each other better?" He gave a sly smile "I hope it's not impertinent of me to ask of course... but I'm sure you can see the benefits of forming a close... Business relationship" his gaze slowly turned upward to meet Thals "It is... still early and I know this Ravishing cafe near the college" Simon then turned towards Coro "Coronaria you're busy this afternoon right?"
