Initation day, the day Flores Blumenthal had been impatiently waiting for the entire last month. He had spent most of this morning with his friends he knew from Signal, the only familiar thing in this strangely fascinating place that would hopefully be his home for the next four years. By now, he stood by the cliff, feet firmly planted on the ornate stone plates with Vale's symbol on them. The forest below him was a breathtaking sight.

Generally, the atmosphere was very tense. Students were either completely silent or nervously whispering with each other. Flores himself preferred to do the former. He didn't know what exactly was going to happen but he assumed they would descend down into that forest, possibly some sort of survival test? With calm eyes, he scanned the patterns of the trees' crowns, hoping to find indicators for possible clearings and fresh water sources.

He had tried avoiding the rumours, listening to those usually only got you into false expectations, which again made it harder to adapt to a new situation.

He had his friends he was comfortable around, the chance of being pushed out of that comfort zone was rather unsettling.
