Finally leaving Astra, "The Blight" set it's course for Gaia, the "Animal Kingdom". Hephaestus reached for a switch, untouched throughout the entire flight until now. He flipped it, and the ship seemed to have no real differences to the passengers within the metal vehicle, except for a transparent shimmer that could be seen from the windows, covering the entire hull of "The Blight". The cockpit was silent, neither of the two within making a sound even as they neared the largest island of the "Center of the Universe". A hidden tension lay upon the duo, Hana every so often resting a hand on her Medium, a unnaturally red rock the size of her hand, while Hephaestus drummed his fingers upon the steering wheel, eyes darting from side to side, examining the world outside of the airship. When they had reached the island proper, the armored man flipped the switch once more, and his albino partner nearly let out a sigh of relief. Even after the end of strife between the 4 islands and Astra, there was still a sort of unease that came with flying around the territory of the strongest Existence users within Nevada.
Reaching the edge of Thesalos, the airship slowly descended, the metal vehicle making a subtle 'thump' as it landed on the outskirts of the city. Hana hopped out of her seat, and grabbed a small paper that held a complex array of Seals as she left the airship. She walked a ways distance from the vehicle, then set the paper on the ground, channeling a spark of Aeon into it as she did so. The Seals disappeared, and the open clearing exploded in a symphony of lights, illuminating the afternoon sky with it's splendor. Hana smirked as she witnessed the products of her creations. They did this every year when they visited the capital of the Fine Arts within Gaia, to show their appreciation of the works created by the acclaimed artists within. At the same time, the display also signaled students who were enlisted for their Academy, allowing them to travel to the airship's location. Already, a few tentative students of multiple shapes and sizes came into the clearing, seeking for passage onto the vehicle. Hana greeted them all with a smile, taking a bow when a student applauded at her splendid display.

A small smile settled on the brunette teacher's face as she watched the two kits interact with each other. They were quite inexperienced in the art of conversation, but she believed they would become close acquaintances in due time. The kitsune was internally surprised when Josephine had invited the Undead boy, having believed that the vampire was still unlikely to socialize. Meliona was quite happy to be wrong, however, and was encouraged by the bonding between the two. The small group reached the Office building, and started to search for her fellow teacher, Aurelia, and found the younger woman walking through a hallway. A large stack of papers were held within the woman's single hand, said woman's eyebrows rose slightly at the sight of the small group infront of her.
"Huh. A small entourage, just for me? I'm flattered," Ms. Borealis remarked dully as she stopped infront of the trio, Meliona's tails moving slightly faster in their hypnotic rhythm at the woman's words.
"To what do I owe this honor? Our meeting isn't until later this evening, Meliona." The Invoker's words seemed to be directed to the teacher, but her eyes were locked onto the two students behind her.
