It was a huge disruption in your plans. You weren’t exactly counting on being sent to another world, much less a school, while delivering a Gnosis to the Tsaritsa.

A Gnosis.. an item used by Archons to directly tap into energy from Celestia, and is proof of their status as an elemental Archon. Luckily, you still had it by the time you found yourself in the mirror hall. Though.. you must not have been careful enough.

You got careless. The housewardens at the school had come to the dorm you were staying in to see how you were settling in (Crowley told them to.) Leona got a little nosy after he saw something glow from under one of the floorboards. The place was already a fixer upper so no one would notice if he just pulled a board out.

What he found was a small object that seemed to resemble a chess piece. Even stranger, it had an odd elemental symbol on it..

“Some kind of magic Item?” Azul questioned.

“Not like anything I’ve seen..” Idia murmured.

“It could be a keepsake from their old world.” Vil said.

“Why keep a keepsake hidden so well?” Riddle asked. “I am not condoning your snooping, Leona, but it is odd.”

“Indeed. There is nothing of the sort in Briar Valley..” Malleus hummed, looking deep in thought. “But the energy it exudes is.. immense.”

“I think you guys should put it back!” Kalim said in a worried tone. “What if they get mad at us?”

That question was about to be answered as you entered your room.
