The grand plaza of Marshall Academy was filled with young Arcanists…
They were students from across the world who streamed into the ceremonial grounds, each wearing the Academy's uniform.
Since this was a new era for the Academy, they were given deep indigo coats lined with silver trim, with the emblem of the Academy stitched proudly on the chest. Yet each student also bore a second emblem, smaller but distinct, representing their chosen Arcane Path.
Those of the Dark Arts wore a raven-black emblem, etched like shadow across their sleeve.
The Summoning Arts students bore a golden circle with a grimoire spiraling inward.
The Mystic Arts carried a crescent moon entwined with stars.
The Elemental Arts displayed a four-pointed emblem, each tip glowing faintly with fire, water, earth, and wind.
The Knights wore a silver sword crossed with a shield.
The Alchemy Arts carried a flask and a transmutation circle.
The Rune Arts displayed a wisdom rune on their emblem…
