Session 1. March 30th, 2026
Everyone awakes in the dormitories. Arriving just the night before, the group all took their time to rest well awaiting for the next morning - not talking much at all prior. The morning awaits for the quite odd arrangement of students; Moreso, awakening them to a horribly pitched alarm. The students stumble out to the kitchen to find a letter neatly set upon the cool surface. The students are as follows- Amile, Ione, Rem, Kärsiä, Serval, and Nadyne Dear our new guests to Cronus, We are more than excited to greet you. Please make your way down through the dorms and to the main hall, passing through the gardens and finally to the colosseum. Here we will hold our first event of the year - Our opening ceremony! Please don't be late, as all information is crucial. If you fail to do so, a representative of Cronus shall escort you. Signed, Cronus Academia As the students await, time ticks away. Eventually a loud knock disrupts the group. Ione decides to check it out, being greeted by Nile. He towers over her, telling the group they'll be late. They all leave the dorms, following the Deity of War to their destination.
Once everyone has arrived at the colloseum and made themselves comfortable, An announcer excitedly starts his introduction. He goes over the basic information of Cronus before announcing the different Professors and Deities that would behold and upkeep the school. Notes taken down; Thalen - has mechanical parts on leg and arm, Deity of Creation and Alchemy, has mechanical bird Dionysus - avoid at all costs someone stared at our group at this point after being introduced, either Thalen or Dionysus. Veres - symbol on forehead, seen in gardens Solvita - Weird, the notes are scratched out. Asier - super cute for some reason??? bro is just living then we go to profs Artha - tattoo on neck, quiet, english prof Celaria - knight armor with glimmering radiance/red hair, sits next to artha- aura of light- sits nexts to Artha, advisers- didn’t say anything- helping Nile Cael - dragon- also quiet Osyth - speaks into brain Willy - seems suspicious- cooking teacher Odde - butterfly woman, follower of the moon- knows a LOT about moon and sun Aetherius - nymph of the sky- smiles and sits down Afterwards the group has a bit of time to explore, Amile leaves everyone and goes around to try to find the Alchemy classroom. She gets there and sees a small leather book that shines with a sort of radiance- she can tell its magic but it has a scribbled out name. Dionysus approaches her and she immediately turns around and ask him if he would know anything about the scribbled out name- he tells her she should look into it so she goes to check it out. The announcer from before comes onto the intercom, advising students to stick to the strict schedule. Amile goes up to the desk and the librarian is replaced with a black cat- she ask if she could check out a book and it nudges a paper at her- so she signs it, it nudges her for pets, so she gives it lil skritches on the head and then heads back to the dorm. When Amile gets back Serval is in her room, she grabs them by the tail and moves them outside the door. They have a sad sparkly look in their eyes and she slams the door in Serval’s face Later, during long sleep, Serval ponders if they should try to escape the room through the window. Though, deciding to avoid the potential cost of life from such slippery rocks they close the window and decide to sleep.
The first class of the day begins, Herbology which is taught by Veres. Eventually everyone makes there way down after, he goes over assignments and such- says not a lot of assignments but don’t miss. He has a sparkly and flowery presence to him. The students go to the garden and Ione is asked about a gloop on a plant, she says its poison which is correct. Veres said not many students get that right, as class ends, Amile asks him where to meet, he then says if he isn’t in the classroom within the first 10 minutes of class, to go check the garden. Next class is WWWVII cooking, the students are put in pairs. Amile is paired with Ione, Kärsiä gets yelled at for being blind/having blindfold, prof can’t hear, Ione and Amile are supposed to cut up stuff for Rat Stew, after everyone successfully makes stew, Rem and Serval eat some while the Professor is choking, bro falls down and battle starts. [ 2 mimics spawn, Ione makes one of them pee themselves. It smells awful, causing the other students to leave.] The group wins, but Rem and Serval are poisoned, Ione tries to revive Willy, but there’s a weird energy that’s sourced from somewhere in the room. Amile uses detect magic and finds an ominous invisible creature in the corner. Rem wants to shoot it, Amile goes up to it, feels cloth. Serval says that a guy might be naked if she tries to rip away the cloths, so Amile turns away from the guy and tugs on the cloth. The actual cooking professor reveals himself to be Lucious, who is also the Mischief god alongside being the cooking teacher.
He finds his little prank funny but alas, no one else does. He grimaces at the decision he made and now must clean the remains of the former professor, Willy Williamson Williams the 7th. He tells everyone that the professor we met was a random dude he found on the side of the street. While announcing this - Serval loots that guy and takes 3 gold coins, a jar of teeth, a crumbled letter, and his boot. He tells us that we are the only students that passed his test and the only students to take his class. Afterwards, everyone leaves while Amile sits down in a chair to talk as teach is mopping up piss and blood… The rest of the party steps out and is met by Dionysus. He smirks as he looks over the party. He gazes to Ione, asking if she finds her group enjoyable - commenting on how interesting their dynamic is. She takes a moment and tells the group that she is a follower of the Deity of Wine, Insanity, and Ecstasy - Dionysus himself. He then decides to inform everyone of the gift he had left Ione, 400 gold, asking how she had spent it. The group falls silent and Dionysus has a smug and arrogant look on his face. Rem is the only one to bow to him after he had been introduced. Dionysus looks to Kärsiä and puts his finger on his forehead, stating he had cured him of the blind issue they had. Then turning to leave, he flicks a coin which follows on Rem's forehead. Rem and Ione inspect it and ask Kärsiä if he would know anything. Kärsiä decides to give it a shot but becomes clearly uncomfortable about it simply saying he doesn't know what it says. Lucious peers to them as he mops, stating that Dionysus was only tricking Kärsiä and that they shouldn't fall for such a simple and obvious lie. Amile talks to Lucious about the book she found- asking if he could tell her about it more in which he seems to know what it is, calling it the “oldest trick in the book”. The familiar cat returns from earlier which Amile pets the cat again and continues talking. He asks Amile where she got the book in which she tells him from the guy talking out there just a minute ago. Ione hears this, Lucious say’s he’ll have people talk to Amile and directs her to Seraphia for Kärsiä. Afterwards, Ione takes Serval and Rem to go see Veres at the infirmary; Amile asks Kärsiä if he wants to go to the counselors office insistently, and they go. After waiting and explaining the situation, Seraphia gives Kärsiä two options without explaining what it does- she said its her “own way” of helping.
Amile tries to give an out by lying about someone having a crush, and she needed to talk about it. She says she will talk, but after she’s done with Kärsiä . Kärsiä is given the option to either eat a stone covered in runes or to have a rune basically branded on him like the tattoos on our necks. He tries to refuse both but unfortanetly is stuck with getting branded. She says that the issue has been resolved and will work in the morning. After leaving, Amile tells Seraphia that someone had given this book to her, and she thinks its from an admirer, but because she’s been fooled in the past, she was wondering if it was sincere or just a practical joke. Seraphia tells her that its not a joke, that someone is expecting her, and that she doesn’t want to be involved with conflict. She also put a pressed flower bookmark into the book. She then asks how Amile knew it was from some admirer and Amile said there was a scribbled out name on a heart sticky note- She said she hopes not. Serphia told her to go talk to Thalen, which Amile thanks her and briskly leaves back to the dorm with Kärsiä.
Meanwhile, Ione heads to the infirmary with Serval and Rem. As she's walking down the halls she notices a glimmering sight from the corner of her eye. There, Veres awaits in the gardens busy doing garden work. Ione goes up to him, asking for help. In response, Veres inspects the two poisoned and searches himself for the antidote. As he does so he inquires how this could have possibly happened. Ione skips the extra details and simply says that they had eaten poisoned food in the cooking class, going over a small timeline of events. Vere's displeased with this hands the tonic over, stating that he wasn't a fan of Lucious and was sure to talk to the higher ups over such a matter, clearly irritated by the other mans presence. Veres hands the tonic over with glitter and flowers placed inside. He stated it should work overnight and they should feel much better, though he ensures he'll check in on them at some point to ensure its working. Ione thanks the man, then heads to the dorms Amile gets back with Kärsiä to see the two furry party members of hers laying down in pain. Amile asks how things are in which Rem's response is to simply cough up a flower petal and some sparkles. Meanwhile, Kärsiä can already feel the effects of whatever happened kicking in - feeling sick. Amile informs the group of what had happened with Serephia and goes to her dorm, shutting the door. Kärsiä is then grabbed by Rem, taken to the ground so he can read what has been placed on his wrist. It's celestial, simply stating: "angels revengeance". Ione feeling a bit hopeless since no one really understands what this mean decides to call on her own deity for some help.
Ione travels to find Dionysus sitting aside a pool with students going in laps, Nile yelling to them about how they'll die if they dare falter. Dionysus peers open his eye as the sun rests on him, basking him in warmth with two servants aside fanning him with large leafs. This guy doesn't even work at the school. Ione walks up, asking for help which Dionysus is more than excited at such a comment. He asks what had happened and Ione gives the rundown. Dionysus tells her to not waste time, so they head quickly to the dorm. Once inside, he examines the two ill furry creatures and asks Ione what happened. Ione redirects his attention to Kärsiä who is suffering an immense headache, sweating and in pain like the others. He kneels down and looks at his wrist. A smirk tugs at Dionysus' lips as his eyes light up. "Well, I didn't think this was to happen in the first year and so soon. She has arrived. How exciting."
