The Mother Goddess, Angel of Light, She Who Shines
Niciel had received a message from Vestec, which immediately put her on high alert. After his little stunt last time, she certainly had no reason to trust him ever again. Niciel was certainly unwilling to accept the invite in case of a possibly disastrous face-to-face meeting, but with the mention of Slough needing help, she couldn't bring herself to say no. Even so, it took her a while to finally come to accepting it and teleporting to the Deadwood Sepulchre.
A number of Gods and Goddesses had already arrived, whether by Avatar or in person. There was Jvan's Eye and Astarte's lingering essence, and Niciel could even feel Vowzra's powerful essence coming from the cocoon of bark, suggesting that he had appeared as well. One quick look at the cocoon was enough for Niciel to tell that there was no need for her to help Slough now. She couldn't even tell if Slough was actually inside the coffin, but considering the nature of the situation, Niciel doubted that there could be anything else inside it.
However, even though there was no need to help Slough, Niciel felt bad for the deer goddess. Niciel realized that she had been spending too much time on her own problems with the Angels, so much that she had neglected the other Gods and Goddesses to the point of nearly forgetting a number of them existed. Niciel intended to make up for it, at least a little, by helping out in her own way. Raising an upturned hand, Niciel concentrated her power, creating six green Life Wisps that revolved in her palm, all of them more powerful than the ones Niciel had at the Nice Mountains. Then, Niciel drew from each of the orbs a bit of power and created the Orb of Life. Were it not for Vowzra's barrier, Niciel would have given the Orb of Life to Slough immediately. Despite that, though, Niciel had an idea. Placing the Orb of Life on top of the cocoon, Niciel created a barrier of her own around it, weaker than Vowzra's, but definitely powerful in its own right. It would fade almost immediately when Slough would be freed, and the Life Wisps would present it to Slough as a gift.
Niciel pondered the idea further, wondering if it could be perfected further to ensure that it would not go awry, and decided to call upon a few nearby Wisps to ensure that the barrier would hold until the time was right. The Life Wisps would revolve around Vowzra's cocoon, waiting for the time to come, while the other Wisps would revolve around Niciel's barrier that held the Orb of Life, ensuring that it would hold and alert Niciel through the Orb of Escry should something go horribly awry. Satisfied, Niciel looked at the cocoon one last time before returning to the Nice Mountains in a flash of light.
-Niciel wonders if it is a good idea to trust Vestec's message, and eventually decides to come. -Niciel arrives, a little late to the party, but there all the same, and notices the other Gods and Goddesses that had come (and left) the Deadwood Sepulchre. -Niciel comes to the conclusion that the cocoon Vowzra has made for Slough is enough for Slough, but still decides to help in her own way. -Niciel creates 6 powerful Life Wisps and an Orb of Life as a gift for Slough (-8 Might, 1 Might per Wisp and 2 Might for the Orb), and creates a barrier to house it in until Slough leaves the cocoon and/or the cocoon disappears on its own (-8 Might). -Niciel calls upon a few normal Wisps to safeguard the barrier, and Niciel finally leaves.
Zachary watched as the cat escaped before he could pick it up, attacking the bullies with the other girl. The girl that had started it then made her escape with the blonde girl, who seemed like the victim at the time. While this was happening, a number of other people had arrived at the scene, including the Student President herself. One bully tried to confront her and a few others, but was soon scared away.
Zachary merely stayed and watched for much of the event, but he eventually decided that he had better things to do and began walking away. It wasn't his place to interfere in any of that anyway, even if he wanted to. He doubted the Student President had any business with him either.
As he walked, Zachary began wondering what he should do for the day. Truth be told, he wanted to go to sleep when he went back to his room. However, there were other things he felt like he needed to do. Message that girl in Deep Ground, for one. What was her name again? Smitten Kitten, that was it. With his agenda in mind, he began making his way back home. Very shortly after, though, he soon encountered the two girls from the bullying event. As Zachary looked at them, he couldn't help but feel that he recognized the brown-haired girl, though from where he didn't know. He pondered it for a brief moment, then decided that he would figure it out later and moved on, walking past them.

After Leander had returned to class with Amelia in tow, they were all greeted with the announcement of detention. Needless to say, Leander was surprised. "What?! Detention?! That ain't fair!" Leander exclaimed. Unfortunately for Leander, his complaints were ignored as Transformer moved on to his evaluations for their performances in the Tag Duels. To make it even worse, most of the evaluations were quite negative, and Leander couldn't argue against his. Leander sulked for the remainder of the class as he stared at the cards in his deck, while still listening to Transformer's lessons. When the bell finally rang and they were dismissed, Leander was about to head off back to his room when Shiyu came over to him and began some idle conversation.
"Ehh, I ain't got much planned. I was just gonna head back to my room," Leander replied. Then, one part of the conversation hit him. "Wait, Dark Dorm?" Leander asked. "What the heck's that? I thought it was only the Light, Wind, and Earth dorms." Having spent so much time with only first-years, it was only natural to think that was the case. He hadn't exactly met any second or third-years, either.
Michelle Kine
Michelle was stunned by her group's evaluation. From the sounds of it, they were apparently the worst group out of everyone. The only comfort she could take out of it was that she seemed to shown the best performance, although there was something negative to say about her as well. She continued to listen to Transformer's lecture for the duration of the class, taking notes on important points. Eventually the class came to an end, leaving Michelle with little to do in the free period. Michelle then decided to head over to the card shop. She wasn't in a big need of cards, but perhaps there would be something there that would interest her.
As Damien threw punch after punch, he was both impressed and frustrated at the same time. He liked his newfound strength and using it however he liked, but other than the first punch, none of his punches were connecting against the Amazon. Still, perhaps that was to be expected. Random flailing wasn't going to get him anywhere against someone like this. It was also what made fights like this quite exciting. Before he could think about anything else, though, Olivia managed to fend Damien off and land a counterattack. Damien had tried to cross his arms in front of him to block the kick, but he was too slow to react, the blow knocking the air of his lungs, and was knocked backwards, landing on his back.
As he recovered his breath after the force of the kick, Olivia was already upon him, about to deliver another kick while was still down. Damien desperately rolled to the side to avoid getting struck once more, the kick instead creating a deep impact in the ground. Getting up on all fours, Damien then felt a sudden impulse to try something out. He extended his hand, fingers spread out, towards Olivia, and four nearby rocks were enveloped in a black-and-red flame. They then began levitating in the air for a second before they were launched towards Olivia at high speeds.
