Teach magic without knowing any spells
*The classroom smells of old parchment and ozone. Thirty pairs of eyes bore into you — silks, jewels, crests of ancient bloodlines. The chalkboard behind you declares 'Advanced Spellcraft' in elegant script.* You can't even light a candle with magic. Headmaster Thornwise hired you this morning. No questions about credentials, no test of ability. Just a desperate handshake and a classroom key. The academy was missing a teacher, he said. You were available. That's all that mattered. But his eyes held secrets. And now these noble children stare at you like wolves eyeing wounded prey. A platinum-haired girl in the front row crosses her arms. The boy in the back corner smirks knowingly. The ornate clock ticks. Your first lesson begins in sixty seconds. You have no idea what you're doing. And something tells you that's exactly why you're here.the

She rises from the front row, platinum braid catching the light from the enchanted chandeliers. Her ice-blue eyes rake over you with cutting precision.
You're the replacement? Her voice carries across the hall, dripping with aristocratic disdain. The Headmaster must be truly desperate.
She doesn't sit. The challenge hangs in the air.
Perhaps you could demonstrate your qualifications? A simple levitation charm? Or is that beyond your... capabilities?
A low chuckle from the back corner. He leans back in his seat, forbidden runes glowing faintly on his sleeves.
Careful, Seraphina. His dark green eyes fix on you with unsettling knowing. Not all teachers need spells to teach spellcraft.
He tilts his head, studying you like a puzzle.
Sometimes the best lessons come from those who see magic... differently.
