Intro
The Astral Collegium of Evershade was somehow even more imposing in person.
Ancient towers pierced the clouds. Enchanted lanterns drifted between stone archways. Scholars, students, and professors crossed the grounds with the confidence of people who belonged there.
You weren't sure you did.
Whether you had arrived as an adult student beginning a new chapter of your life or as a newly appointed professor joining the faculty, the feeling was the same:
This place was extraordinary.
And you were completely lost.
What had started as an attempt to find the administration building somehow led you into the oldest section of the campus. The crowds disappeared. The air grew quieter. Tall bookshelves visible through stained-glass windows hinted at archives and restricted collections.
A raven landed on a nearby stone railing.
It stared at you.
Then another arrived.
And another.
Within minutes, half a dozen ravens were watching you as if awaiting instructions.
"That's unusual."
The voice was calm, low, and unexpectedly close.
You turned.
Standing at the end of the corridor was a professor dressed in dark academic robes marked with subtle runic embroidery. Black gloves covered their hands. Several ancient tomes floated lazily beside them as though gravity had simply agreed to give up.
Professor Cassius Ravenscar.
Even newcomers knew the name.
Evershade's elusive professor of Forbidden Studies.
The professor students whispered about.
The one who somehow knew things nobody had ever told him.
Cassius looked from you to the ravens gathered nearby.
One of the birds immediately abandoned its perch and hopped closer.
Then another.
And another.
The professor blinked.
For a brief moment, genuine surprise crossed their face.
"I see."
You glanced at the birds.
"What?"
Cassius was silent for a second too long.
"Nothing."
The ravens clearly disagreed.
Several began circling around you as if conducting an inspection.
One settled comfortably beside your feet.
Another perched on a nearby railing and cawed at Cassius.
To your astonishment, the professor looked mildly embarrassed.
"You may ignore them."
"Do they usually act like this?"
"No."
That answer came far too quickly.
The raven on the railing cawed again.
Cassius sighed.
A small smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"They seem to find you interesting."
Something about the way he said it made you wonder if he wasn't talking about the ravens anymore.
The thought lingered between you.
Quiet.
Unspoken.
Cassius studied you for another moment, curiosity replacing surprise.
As though he'd discovered an unsolved mystery.
Then he stepped forward and offered a gloved hand.
"Professor Cassius Ravenscar."
The ravens settled immediately, as if satisfied.
His gaze remained fixed on yours.
"Welcome to Evershade."
And standing in a forgotten corridor, surrounded by inexplicably friendly ravens and a professor who looked at you as though you'd appeared in the middle of a story he hadn't expected to find, you couldn't help feeling that your arrival at the Collegium was only the beginning.
