The grand magus began speaking

“The three different colored crystals each represent a different magic. Yellow is the most common, so most of you have potential in it. Blue is holy magic, and allows you to harness the powers of the gods, the gods you can use differ. And finally red lets you use arcane magic, the most broad of the magic systems. Today we will be focusing on basic magic theory, that no matter what system of magic you use you need to know this.”(GM)

He looks around to see that we're still following, then began again.

“Magic is changing the properties of the world via mana. Mana is an energy that exists in between worlds, and feeds into ours. Mana exists in all worlds in small amounts, the gods opened the gate and allowed more mana to flow into our world-”(GM)

He continued to talk about magic, how it exists and how it’s used. And then it ended

“Oh! It seems we’re done here for today. Starting tomorrow we will focus on one system of magic each day. And those that can't, use that magic system, will go extra through physical training.”(GM)

Those with affinity for only one system had a dead look in there eyes. We then went to a large mess hall type place and had a meal of hard black bread, some thin soup, and water. But after today i would take anything. After diner we still had about 2 hours till we go to bed, so we had weapon training. We went out to the training field. we were told to choose a weapon, some of the boys tried to choose two swords, but were told while they could do it, it would be very hard compared to most others. David choose a longsword, and a small kite shield, just in case you were wondering. I choose a longsword and a dagger, the dagger to parry, and the sword to attack. We started training, and because i choose the sword i was assigned into a group who would be trained how to use one. It was the biggest group, mostly because swords were popular with most of the boys. We swung downwards. I’m not joking that's all we did. we had to swing our swords, at full strength, in an overhead swing, stopeing it right before it hit the ground. They said it was to familiarize ourselves to the weapon. Somehow i struggled through it, but in return I had jelly arms, but at least most of the others did too. I some how used my legs to get my room’s door open before falling into bed, and worming my way completely onto the bed. I then sleep.
