After the professor left, silence hung in the air until Lucien Noir broke it with a grin, saying,. "Welcome to Hogwarts! The Obscura academy is just forcade kids," said Lucien Nior in such a serious tone that everyone lost what to think or say. After getting accepted into the strangely beautiful academy, they a peculiar journey, and they are just 7, all with so opposite looking to each other as much as they could. And now this, and everyone was in shock except Seraphine Noir, who looked irritated at his brother's antics. She then said, "Enough of your bullshit! Do your job properly"
"When will my baby sister learn to play around. This was going to be so cool pranking first year, but you ruined it for me," he said in fake anger, but with a playful tone.
"Obscura Academy exists to preserve the balance of seven truths: Time, Memory, Hope, Redemption, Dream, Shadow, and Truth. Each of you becomes part of one faction we will see that in future. Follow me, and I will give you a brief explanation of what to expect for the next 4 years on our way to your dormitory.
All students begin as equals, no factions, no hierarchies. They study Philosophy of Balance, Temporal Logic, Metaphysical History, and Reality Ethics. Practical disciplines include emotional regulation, dream traversal, and mind-shielding. The purpose is to dismantle the illusions of the world before relearning truth in the first year.
Through the Trial of Mirrors, each student discovers their alignment with one of the Seven Factions. They meet their mentors, learn sacred rites, and explore the elemental resonance of their power. The focus is on understanding the thread that ties their essence to the fabric of existence in your second year here.
Those who complete their Thesis of Balance may join the hidden Society in their third and final year. They remain to pursue mastery in governance, prophecy, diplomacy, and energy discipline. Their fieldwork extends beyond the Academy, serving the unseen equilibrium of the world.
For prodigies and chosen heirs of their faction, the final path opens. They study Reality Weaving, Time Resonance, and Legacy Architecture. Graduates either ascend as Keepers: guardians of the Balance, or fade into the higher echelons of the Society's unseen order. But it's said that after society lost everything around 3000 years ago, and lost everything, no one learn the same level of gasp over these powers and maintain the stability, and that's why you 7 should stay in the same dormitory for the next 3 or 4 years.
Now for uniforms, the base uniform is a deep black ensemble — a tailored coat with silver-thread embroidery along the cuffs and collar, symbolising unity before division into factions. A white undershirt or high-collared blouse is paired with a ribbon or cravat whose colour changes after Sorting. Slim trousers or a pleated skirt are lined with faint geometric runes that shimmer softly under moonlight. The Academy Crest, a circle divided into seven fragments, is pinned over the heart. Each student wears a long, reversible cloak: black on the outside, with an inner lining reflecting their faction colour, only visible when in motion. Which are;
Astra Faction— Silver-white, the hue of living time and equilibrium.
Obsidian Faction— Bronze-gold, the ancient warmth of history and lineage.
Lunaris Faction— Azure blue, the endless expanse of sky and possibility.
Ecliptis Faction— Deep crimson, pain refined into power.
Solis Faction— Soft lilac, twilight between sleep and awakening.
Umbra Faction— Charcoal-black, the threshold between void and courage.
Noctis Faction— Ivory-gold, brilliance that conceals as much as it reveals.
Students in higher years often personalise their uniforms with subtle charms, rings, or stitched sigils. Lucien Noir, the Academy's enigmatic guide, wears a modified version — his collar left loose and cloak open, signifying his liminal role between student and Keeper. Professors, meanwhile, don coats with silver cuffs and seven-point embroidery, marking their oath of neutrality between the factions."
They had already come in front of their dormitory, which has "Septem Sanctum" written on it, and they stopped at the gate, and he continued.
"There are 4 dormitories for each batch, and we got 4 batches at one time. They are Septem Sanctum, The Axis Dormitory, The Equinox Hall, The Liminal House, and the Aureum Hall are for staff.
