This book... It holds so many messages, from different people. But I don't understand. I am in a forest, yet I don't recall how I got here. And I have wings. My muscles ache and my mind is completely disoriented.

I remember being on the verge of death. I remember the flames. I remember the screams. ... Jade... Saphir...

Can someone please explain the situation to me, or tell me where I am? I need to go find my students.

Professor, what--

...No, wait.

[fonon-professor.livejournal.com]

Ah... Do I know you?

[kid-in-red.livejournal.com]

No, sorry. You just look kinda like someone I know...

This place is called Luceti, though. You were kidnapped and brought here by the Malnosso.

[fonon-professor.livejournal.com]

Oh my! Kidnapped, you say? That... is extremely concerning. What do these Malnosso want? I doubt any of my acquaintances can pay a high amount of ransom. And my students must be worried sick!

[kid-in-red.livejournal.com]

They're not after gald. They're using us as experiments. That's why they gave us the wings and everything. But you don't need to worry about your students, time kinda stops while we're all trapped here.

Oh-Oh! Welcome to Luceti!

Are you a teacher!?

[fonon-professor.livejournal.com]

Thank you very much.

Yes, I am a teacher. Or, perhaps, I was a teacher would be a better description. Unless there is someone here for me to teach, I am without a job.

[themoonuplifts.livejournal.com]

Very much welcome!

You could still be a teacher here ... if anyone actually wanted to learn! I won't touch schooling with a ten-foot pole. I had enough of that where I came from! But I'm sure there's someone here that wouldn't mind learning!

[fonon-professor.livejournal.com]

I wonder... Will any of my knowledge actually be of use here? My area of expertise is Fonic artes. Those cannot be cast here, so I doubt anyone will benefit from learning about them. Most people seem to already know how to read and write, history has become useless, and I am not much of an genius when it comes down to Math...

Perhaps I can try to get a grip on this... Filial magic.

[themoonuplifts.livejournal.com]

F-Fonic artes? I've never heard of anything like that?

The Filial magic is kind of hard to get the hang of! Though, I'm sure if you're a teacher you'll have no trouble.

...Professor Nebilim?!

[fonon-professor.livejournal.com]

Oh, I'm sorry. Have we met before?

[baranodist.livejournal.com]

It... it really is you, Professor? It's me, Saphir!

[fonon-professor.livejournal.com]

S-Saphir?!

My... You've grown.

[baranodist.livejournal.com]

...I suppose so, Professor...

Oh Professor, there's so much I've wanted to tell you! If only Jade were here, this would be perfect-!

[wise_maiden]

Hmm... students, you said? That reminds me of something I wanted to look into, earlier...

If you're in the forest, you need to be careful. Has anyone come to assist you as of yet?

[fonon-professor.livejournal.com]

No, not yet. The boy named Lloyd told me there are monsters roaming the forest, so I am making my way to the village. The trees are starting to thin, so it shouldn't be too far from here.

[wise_maiden]

Ah, you were talking to Lloyd? I see. Just be on your guard, then.

[fonon-professor.livejournal.com]

I will. Thank you for your concern.

[cutelilchrome.livejournal.com]

If you're in the forest you should probably move out quickly. There are dangerous things in there.

Do you need any help?

[fonon-professor.livejournal.com]

So I've heard. I am close to the village, I think, but I'm quite exhausted. I just hope I'll make it.

[cutelilchrome.livejournal.com]

The house I'm in is kind of close to the forest. You can rest there is you want.

[fonon-professor.livejournal.com]

I would appreciate that. But are you certain your housemates won't mind?

[itsnotadrill.livejournal.com]

You have students? Are you going to be okay?

[fonon-professor.livejournal.com]

Oh, yes. I have been tutoring them for quite some time now. That is... until I came here.

I will be fine. Thank you for your concern.
