THE new school year finally began for all the schools across the Empire. Students returned to their classrooms and campuses after the long break. The halls filled with the noise of friends meeting again and the sound of people moving to their first classes. And it was the same for Redwood Academy.
Astrid looked over his new schedule for the school year. His first class was listed as Advanced Character Interpretation. He tucked the schedule into his bag and started walking down the hall toward the acting department's main building.
As he walked, several students he passed called out greetings to him. Astrid smiled and nodded back at them. He noticed some of them looking at him with open admiration. It also did not escape his notice that a few others watched him with clear envy.
