Evan woke up around 6:20 when he heard a loud bang nearby. He looked over groggily to see someone picking up some books nearby. They must have dropped them and that's what woke him up. Ah well. He was awake now.

He stood and touched his elbows together behind his back as a way of stretching his spine back out to its normal length. He picked up his backpack and started to head towards... wherever he was headed. Glynda hadn't even told them where to go or when, just that they had to be there on time. In hindsight her directions had only seemed clear in comparison with those of the headmaster. Well he had found the orientation by chance so maybe he could find the initiation the same way?

He wandered the hallways randomly, turning whenever it felt right. He kept walking for what felt like hours until he somehow emerged outside the buiding with the cliffs distantly visible. He strolled over and saw a few students and teachers in a group around some launch pads. That must be it. Leaf had mentioned launch pads last night.

When Evan joined the group at the cliffs there was only one person he knew, Ras, from back at Lighthouse. They chatted for a bit and Evan found out he was very early. Initiation wouldn't be happening for another half hour. He sat on one of the rocks with his bare feet dangling off the cliff, waiting.

He surveyed the area below him since it seemed like he'd be spending some time down there later. It looked like there were quite a few Grimm down there. He saw several packs of Beowolves and Ursi. There were a few menacing looking caves that probably held even more Grimm. He saw a clearing with a temple of sorts in the middle. Closer to the cliffs there was a giant ancient ruin that looked like it was borderline on falling to pieces.

He started to wonder how the teams would be formed. Would it just be whoever encountered each other by chance? Would they be ranked according to performance and the strongest and weakest would be teamed with each other? Would they be profiled on how they interacted and the teams would be optimised from there?

He saw that Ras had actually drawn a map of the forest and stuffed it into a pocket. Evan wasn't gonna bother with all that. If he remembered he'd remember, if not he wouldn't worry too much about it. He could always use the cliffs as a point of reference. Eh, he'd figure it out. He lay back and rested his head on the rock behind him. Maybe he'd take a nap before initiation started.
