As they sat in the school headmasters office the silence became awkward as they waited for the headmaster to speak. After a few minutes he finally spoke.
"Sorry about that, I just needed to finish something real quick. I am Headmaster Avery Olivera and I run this school. We got word that you two would be coming today and since you two are a special case I will be taking care of enrolling you. "
"What do you mean we are a special case?" Val asked with a confused look on his face while Isaac nodded in agreement with Val.
The headmaster smiled while speaking. "You two achieved a scholarship by getting the highest marks in all of your classes. We usually only accept the higher class and nobility here at this private school but you two managed to get in here for free. I am honestly quite shocked that the two of you didn't know. "
"Well we didn't know because the orphanage we were staying at didn't tell us anything." Val said thinking up a lie quickly. "We were just shipped here and told to walk to the school. They left us some paperwork and our ID cards but that's it."
"Ah okay, I understand the situation better." Headmaster Olivera said. "Well let us get to the most exciting part of any enrollment…Paperwork." As he said this he chuckled as he watched Val and Isaac sigh.
"For the first part we have these." Headmaster Olivera said handing them a small packet of papers to read through. "This is just basic stuff letting us do background checks, gather previous school data and medical information."
Quickly reading through and signing it Val and Isaac passed it back before taking the second packet of papers.
"This one gives us permission to do medical checkups and give medical treatments if deemed necessary. Of course you can always refuse treatment but since we have on site doctors and nurses it is usually for the best if anything serious happens."
After reading it carefully to make sure they weren't signing anything that went against their morals or took away their rights they signed before passing it back.

"Finally we have these. This is just information to input into the system and so we can give you school uniforms. There are two parts and you can keep the second part. It contains a map of the school, different clubs to join and your curriculum. The basic classes are mandatory like math, English and world history but the rest you can choose to join if you wish. Once you are done I will show you to your dormitories. Unfortunately we cannot place you together in the same dorm because we don't have the available space."
Nodding Val and Isaac finished filling out the paperwork and stood to join the headmaster on his little tour but Isaac seemed to be very depressed with the last thing the headmaster said. Val comforted him and tried to cheer him up but it didn't help much.
After around 10 minutes of walking while the headmaster showed the two of them the different classes and clubs the school has, they finally arrived near the dorms. The headmaster explained that there were 6 different dorms. 3 for men and 3 for women and each dorm was named after a different egyptian god. They arrived at the first dorn which was the dorm of the sun god Ra which is where Val would be staying. He was shown his room and told his roommate would most likely be back later. He then led the two of them to the 3rd dorm which was based after the god of knowledge Thoth. The 2nd dorm was named after the god of death Anubis. Arriving in the dorm house of thoth the headmaster showed Isaac to his room where he met his roommate. His roommate was busy doing schoolwork and didn’t say much more than hello before going back to his work. Not thinking much of it, Isaac said bye to Val before he walked back to his dorm house with the headmaster. Isaac sat down on his bed and began meditating to pass the time as it helped him calm down and control his emotions better.
Val walked back with the headmaster while thanking him for letting the two of them stay at the school and for showing them around. He also apologized for Isaac’s silence explaining that he has a high anxiety talking to strangers unless it is in a work situation. The headmaster just smiled and said it was no problem and that he hopes they enjoy their stay at the school and if they have any issues they can come talk to him directly.
Leaving Val at his dorm the headmaster left as Val went to his room to settle in, deciding to do the same thing Isaac did. Sitting on his bed he began to meditate and gather the energy that was sent through to them from the library. The bracelet they wore detected when they began meditating and released energy for them to absorb. Before they realized it the day slowly passed without them realizing it. Their roommates tried getting their attention but they wouldn't respond so they eventually stopped trying thinking that they just fell asleep.
