Unbeknownst to any of her classmates, or even their teacher, Eris’ plan to get Kiara in a position of honor—to make her sister stand out as one of the good sheep—was an utter success without little to no work from her part. She would have to be sure to thank Alberta later for presenting such a magnificent opportunity for Eris to work her “magic”. But, for the time being, maybe it was for the best to let the other girl have some space.

More important than that, there was something she had to do now.

[color=palegoldenrod]“You have my thanks, Lord Varen,”[/color] Eris said, approaching Ty as the class assembled in the courtyard. [color=palegoldenrod]“However, maybe it would be for the best to avoid such fiery outbursts in the future? Lady Blumenthal might be as soft as a sharkskin handkerchief, nevertheless, it was not my intention to openly antagonize her but rather to share the precious wisdom of our forefathers. I believe that a bloody feud won’t solve anything in the greater scheme of things, right? We are all classmates, we might as well at least try to get along,”[/color] she added in a soft spoken voice which sounded as barely more than a whisper when compared to the Headmaster’s booming exhortation.

[color=palegoldenrod]“I have to admit, even though I’m not fond of this segregation and cult-like mentality regarding the Miracle Seven—after all, it’s naught but a crutch for those who can’t see the ‘One’ that lies within themselves—that ‘one’… actually strikes my fancy,”[/color] Eris said, thinking out loud, as her gaze scrutinized the kimono-wearing member of the Miracle Six with nigh preternatural thoughtfulness.
