Auna and Ciela sat on the floor of their room looking through the class catalogue. Auna had scored enough points to have multiple majors open to her.

“Do you really think you can do that many classes?” Ciela asked referring to how the Bloodwaves had recommended she major in politics, and magic while minoring in history and religion. Most children would major in one sometimes two subjects and minor in one.

The school had a rule that no child could take more than nine classes in a year. That meant four classes a day in one semester and five in another one. It would be a lot. However, Auna knew she could handle nine classes as her old world had a brutal school system.

“Yes, I know I can. I might as well make it worth it for sending us to school. That way you can do what you want.” Auna smiled.

Auna had chosen to major in politics, magic, history and religion. This would make her have nine classes for years one to five and eight classes from years six to ten. It meant she would spend eight to ten hours in class a day. The nice thing was that majority of classes did not do take homework. Majority of projects and assignments could be done with in the lesson time.

Without having to do homework and only having to study in her dorm room she should be able to handle it. She would know though once classes started if she was right. She would have to continue to self-study as well to keep the subjects open.

The school had children plan out as many years in advance as they could. Auna planned out all ten years for subjects. Each year it could be changed if needed.

Auna would start her first year in common language, math, geography, basic history, basic magic, basic social studies, religious history, scripture and prayer. The more advance classes in her subjects would not be available until year three.

Ciela had an odd schedule. She was starting school early so her years would be red and then blue before year one would start. The red and blue years had playtime and day-care each semester.

Ciela was also able to do a few classes in her major of Agriculture. Her first year would have common language, math, plant identification, hands on garden care I, play time both semesters, day-care one semester, and arts and craft class. The school would only put the children in the day-care class when they did not have a class in one of the four normal slots.

When the younger children were not in class outside of the class hours they were confined to the dorms. When leaving the dorm, they had to sign out with an adult or older student. Adults would be assigned groups to take the children to meals, and outside. Some children like Ciela would be paired with their older sibling in the dorms on request. This meant the older sibling would be automatically responsible for bringing them to meals.

“I think that looks like a lot though.” Ciela sighed looking at Aunas’ classes for the next ten years.

“Girls are you done?” A male butler was standing in the doorway to the room.

“Yes Mr.” The girls got up and were led to Marybeth and Edward. Meredith joined them as well.

All three girls handed in their planned classes. They needed them to be signed and mailed in.

“Are you sure Auna you want this class schedule? We know we said religion and history could help you figure out what your unique job is about, but this is a bit much.” Marybeth shook her head holding the bridge of her nose.

“I am sure.” Was all Auna cared to say as she worried, they would not sign off. She wanted more information on her job sure, but really, she wanted to put an end to her curse.

“Alright, do you remember that boy Jensen Pearl?” Marybeth stopped shaking her head.

“Yes?” Auna replied.

“He has requested to have the same schedule as you. He has the grades to take the same classes as well. His father handed in a blank sheet. Are you okay with that?”

“I don’t care if he wants to, I don’t know much about him though.” Shrugging Auna looked to Edward “Is it weird? Should I be worried this boy is copying me?”

“Well, I wouldn’t worry just yet. If you feel worried at any point, tell a teacher.” Edward had walked over to pat her on the shoulder.

Meredith had picked politics as a major with the goal to minor in animal and monster care. She was going pick another major later. The Bloodwaves had many tamed monsters and animals they used for combat and labour. Her brothers had both chosen politics and combat for their classes.

Politics as a major was basically noble class. All nobles took politics in school as a major or it would disgrace their family. They would take extra home classes for hobbies. The only time a noble could get away without having politics as a major was if they were the second or more born. The second and more in line was seen as needing different skills to support themselves or their house.

If a noble child was fourth or more born, they could even get away without minoring in politics either. There were many commoners that minored in politics in hopes to network. They also had many merchants minoring in politics to better understand the noble society.

“When do we start?” Auna asked as they signed the papers putting them in envelopes.

“Well about two and half months. In days about 75 days. We have the new year winter festival first. Until then we want you three to relax. We will buy all your books. Oh, and some clothes for the two days you are off a week.” Edward was writing hastily in his notebook.

I am excited for new clothes Auna thought thinking about how cute the uniforms looked for the school. Each year would have their own colour, which stayed with them all years except for the red and blue years. Auna and Meredith would be a part of the orange group. Their ties would be orange. A festival called Halloween was her favourite in her past life, walking around in a black uniform and orange tie just tickled her pink.
