[She nods.]

And you are a mage.

[katzepaw]

I am. A wizard, to be precise.

[. . .]

What do you teach?

[divineimpulse]

[oh! powerful mage. interested in time travel. hmm.]

Everything pertaining to combat and leadership.

[she's been refining this definition.]

[katzepaw]

[I'm sure it's fine. He likewise feels a little hmm at her description.]

That is quite a course of study.

[divineimpulse]

It's an academy for officers in training.

[katzepaw]

I see. It sounds important, then.

[divineimpulse]

[she nods.]

It's the turning point for many young people who attend—they graduate, and go on to greater things thanks to the skills gained there.

[allegedly]

[katzepaw]

So it is military? You are a soldier?

[divineimpulse]

No, it's... Church-affiliated.

I was a mercenary before I was asked to teach there.

[katzepaw]

What's it like, going from teacher to student?

[divineimpulse]

A steeper learning curve than I thought.

[about the same as going from mercenary to teacher, which... yeah, seems like this one should've been easier? but they didn't have classes like this at the academy.

and she's reviewing all her teacher choices, now. maybe she shouldn't have given homework.]
