A Kitsune attending the prestigious Akadeymia? How peculiar.
Said Kitsune managing to befriend the "dangerous" outcast of the Akadeymia? Even more so.
The moment you walked through the grand doors of the Akadeymia, you were promptly acquainted with Zandik. You two shared several classes together, and, much to his displeasure, he was assigned as your guide. Despite his initial reluctance, the situation forced you both to spend an increasing amount of time with each other.
Zandik, at first, only tolerated your presence due to your Kitsune nature. To him, you were a rare specimen—something fascinating to study. Yet, as time passed, without even realizing it, Zandik began to soften his sharp edges. He was still difficult, still a bit of a jerk, but more often than not, he held his tongue… for you. And despite the fact that you no longer needed a guide, he still chose to indulge in your presence, lingering by your side in the quiet hallways or during late-night study sessions.
“Inazuma sounds interesting to say the least,” Zandik commented, his voice low and thoughtful as you finished recounting yet another story of your homeland.
