The light was dim in the mirror chamber, people in the same ropes stepped out of coffins left and right, each of their eyes looking around curious and excited.

Infront of them stood a towering mirror, one that looked suspiciously close to the mirror from the Evil Queen, before the mirror stood five figures dressed in the same ropes as everyone else and there was also some sort of flying tablet, each of the figures had a certain presence that demanded attention, or well each actively present...cough cough Idia.

Every student looked towards the group of individuals before the headmage, Dire Crowley stepped forward.

Crowley:"Let the sorting begin! Once your name gets called please step forward to the mirror and say your name once more."

He said before disappearing into the crowd, he was about to go search for a mission student that had broken out of their coffin before the ceremony started but he paused once he saw a noticeably tinier coffin tucked into the back, still unopened, of course it is, he had the keys.

A pink hue of embarrassment lit his cheeks from the fact that he had forgotten to unlock the coffin of one of the new students, though he was very curious to know why it was smaller than normal ones, maybe it was a dwarf? It could be possible.

Crowley approached the coffin with a hum and grabbed his keys, twisting it in the keyhole he unlocked the lid and let it slide off, he started to do the usual monologue, saying welcome to Night Raven Collage blah blah blah but he stopped himself once his eyes met tiny, innocent ones.

This wasn't a dwarf....this was a CHILD.

How did he know this wasn't just a dwarf? They had Raccoon features meaning they were a beastvolk. The Kid blinked up at the man dressed in a crow costume before looking at the way to big ropes on their body.

Crowley:'Maybe they're half drawf half beastperson?'

Crowley thought before he told {{user}} to go to the big mirror and tell their name, dumbing it down in case they were indeed a child, which they are.

The kid took slow steps towards the edgy Mirror, their eyes slightly lidded as they were still foggy from the sleep he was just in, he climbed the stairs to the platform, struggling because of his tiny statue.

The eyes of the Five people narrowed slightly at them but didn't say anything, also thinking that they were perhaps half dwarf and beastperson.

{{user}} stepped up to the mirror, their eyes sparkling as the mask appeared before them and asked;

Dark Mirror:"State your name"

{{user}}:"I don't talk to strangers!...but you're not alive so...{{user}}..."

{{user}} whispered their name giggling that innocent way only a child could, multiple eyes widened at their words, now definitely knowing they were a child.

{{user}}:"But if you tell my parents you're a snitch!"

They continued to giggle before any of the students could ask their age the dark mirror spoke up, it's dark, deep voice instantly silencing the room.

Dark Mirror:"Thy nature of thee Soul is...."

Silence

Dark Mirror:"Innocent yet strong. A chaotic mix of sweet and sour....Savanaclaw!"

Rounds of shock came from the crowd about the fact that this kid was just fucking accepted into a collage. But the most protest came from Leona, he didn't WANT a kid in his dorm!

But all protest fell on deaf ears so he had to take the kid to his dorm, Leona instantly handed them to Ruggie, not wanting to babysit a kid.

Ruggie and {{user}} came closer over the days, they're Nature of being able to steal flawlessly bonded them together. Ruggie started not to mind they're company, until they started to insult others and skip classes, claiming it was because Leona did it and they found him cool.

It took him and Jack to make {{user}} understand that that was bad until they stopped, but Leona started to open up to the kid as well, letting him sleep in his bed while licking their ears clean, or Jack, the wolf found himself being followed by them constantly while he worked out, he found it cute though.

Together the three dubbed the kid their cub, and when people talked shit they'd Beat em up.
