That's it. Off we go!

Tamara Radar

Kasumi was the one who heard it first. Her hand was instantly raised to alert her companions, and her eyes closed to receive the vision. When she opened her black eyes once more, they were narrowed. She nodded once, and two of her followers seemed to appear out of nowhere and moved forward silently to surround the intruder. Kasumi cocked her head to the side in curiosity as there were two flashes of light, and she felt two life forces fade slightly. Fallera had approached Kasumi from behind, and the shorter, Japanese witch spoke to her without turning to face her. "We seem to have a visitor," Kasumi commented, and Fallera smiled slowly and mirthlessly.

"Yes. It seems so," the Spellcrafter replied just as calmly, as if they were conversing about the weather.

Beside the two, Daniel and Tsukoto advanced with angry expressions, their wands raised. Fallera scoffed and waved her hand. They were both forced back. "Down, boys. Let's see her first... I have the feeling this is a good thing." Just as she said it, a tall figure emerged into the clearing, followed by two others.
Kasumi stepped forward, and spread her arms in an expression of greeting and peace. "What business do you have here, Tamara Radar?"
Fallera's head whipped around, eyes narrowed. She knew this woman.

The cousin of Lord Voldemort also spread her arms. Her dark hair flowed down her elegant black robes and her green eyes glowed with power. "I have an offer to make, Kasumi Hitsugaya."

The Dripping Kettle

A small, rugged inn where wizards and witches (and students) with not much money to spare end up at when they pass by Colema. It has three floors- two for the itself, on the top, and one on the bottom for the restaurant and bar where the occupants eat, though it is open for the outside as well. The food they serve is of very average quality.

New Student

Professor Knapp stood at the head of the feast- it was a new year, and all the students had just come into Hogwarts for the feast. "Besides the other first years, we have a new student joining us this year- please welcome Miss Amanda Farthing, Wyvernlor 5th year!" The Wyvernlor, Eagletalon, and Penniluff tables erupted in cheering, while the Dracoslythers grunted and went back to eating. "This year is something special," Knapp began as the cheering subsided. "This year, The Lyreade School of Wizardry and Witchcraft will be participating in the Triwizard Tournament!"

The cheering began again, but Knapp raised her hand and the Hall was instantly near-silent. "We will be starting the choosing of the champion when we..."

Bryn wasn't listening to Knapp anymore. Instead, she was staring across the hall at Shiina, who was staring back at her. They were wearing identical horrified expressions. Well, Bryn was, and Shiina just looked like she wanted to rip someone's head off. How were they supposed to deal with both the prophecy and the Triwizard Tournament?

(Sorry it's short, but BLUE, Moon, Celestah, please comment! Oh, and you'll also notice that I've cleaned up the sidebar a bit. Now only at least somewhat active people are there.)

Amethyst Wood

The wood on the other side of Lyreade Castle, just barely attached to the rest of the forest. There's a lot of sun and brightness there in the daytime, but it can get extremely cold and dark at night.

Obsidian Wood

The scary black part of the forest behind the Lyreade Castle that has the most evil and monsters in it. Students are strictly prohibited, and even some teachers are afraid to go in here.

Crystal Wood

The Crystal Wood is farther away from Lyreade and is next to the Amber Wood, in the middle of the Forest of the Unknown.

The Amber Wood

A small section of the Forest of the Unknown, full of hawthorns, oaks, ashes, and aspens. It is in the northern part of the Forest, the closest wood to Lyreade. Next to it is the Crystal Wood.

Boy's Lavatory

These are the lavatories for the boys. One wall is lined with sinks and the other 1/2 with urinals and 1/2 with stalls. The walls are kind of slimy, made of dark stones.

Girl's Lavatory

These are the lavatories for the girls. One wall is lined with sinks and the other with bathroom stalls. And, no, it does not lead to the Chamber of Secrets....

Alora & Renee

Knapp stood at the altar of the Great Hall. "Once again we have a more people joining us," she told the students and teachers of Lyreade. "Our divination teacher will be Alora Maryann Ryfen, in Penniluff. Please welcome her and her familiar Foraine!" She proclaimed, and the hall erupted in applause. Leon and Pollux spazzed, then drank butterbeer. "-and we have a new student," Knapp interrupted the clapping. "Please welcome Renee Diana Lamperage, a year 5 from Wyvernlor!" Clapping followed the announcement, but it was slightly quieter. Leon stared. His sister? Why was she here? He shrugged. What ever, the young boy thought. At least we're not in the same house.... "Enjoy your meal, staff and students of Lyreade, and once again, let's welcome Professor Ryfen and Renee!"

Three New Students

Knapp stood, once again, at the altar. "We have three more students joining us today:

Alexandra Reedwing, First Year, of Penniluff,

Henry Hannelow, Third Year, of Dracoslyther, and

Aria Drace, also Third Year, also of Dracoslyther." She gestured to the three students.

Shiina's mouth fell open at Aria. She was the exact replica of Gwen. Farwill smiled grimly at her reaction. This was, actually, the exact replica of Gwen. She was Gwendolyn Black reincarnated.

Bryn's mouth fell open, not because of Aria but because of Alexa. Her cousin. Her stupid, annoying, full-of-herself cousin. Why did she have to be here? She thought her mother's brother lived in Australia! What was she doing here?

Knapp, not noticing these things, continued on smiling. "Please welcome them!"
The entire Hall erupted in applause and cheers.
"Enjoy your feast!"
"Yay!" all the people of the school hollered.

Ariadne Karmina Sanproth

Knapp stood at the altar of the Great Hall. "Once again we have a new student," she told the students and teachers of Lyreade. "Her name is Ariadne Karmina Sanproth, third year, and she will be put into the Dracoslyther House. Please welcome her and her familiar Danae!" She proclaimed, and the hall erupted in applause. Shiina looked up at the new Dracoslyther and nodded curtly, not bothering to ask her to sit next to her. Her eyes went dull for a moment as she thought of Gwen. After the noise had died down, Knapp smiled at everyone. "Enjoy your meal, people of Lyreade, and once again welcome, Ariadne!"

Shiina/Bryn Photo Gallery

This isn't related to the blog, I just wanted to post some of my photo manipulations for Shiina and Bryn!!! :)

Shiina LOVES her Bryns :D

Let's play ball!

Shiina & Bryn ~ Best Friends Forever xD

Staaaaaare......

Concentration - Bryn hates it.

Hermes Cadaceus

Knapp once again stood at the altar of the Great Hall the night right after Ada Barrett was announced to the school. "Once again we have a new student," she told the students and teachers of Lyreade. "His name is Hermes Cadaceus, sixth year, and he will be put into the Wyvernlor House. Please welcome him and his familiar Metis!" She proclaimed, and the hall erupted in applause. Bryn Reedwing, from the Wyvernlor table, smiled at Hermes and gestured for him to sit next to her. Devin didn't look very happy. After the noise had died down, Knapp smiled at everyone. "Enjoy your meal, people of Lyreade, and once again welcome, Hermes!"

Ada Barrett

Knapp stood at the podium with her arms spread wide. "Greetings, people of Lyreade! My apologies for the unexpected announcement, but we have a new student joining us now. Her name is Ada Barrett, and she is in Eagletalon, year five."Please welcome her!" Knapp smiled as her students and teachers applauded. "Have a delicious and magnificent dinner!" Then, she stepped down and sat at her table.

Sally's Sweet Shop

This place is the famous Sweet Shop in the town of Colema. It is filled with candies, treats, and sweets of all kinds. It is located on Yvalgar Boulevard.

Akai's Office

This is Professor Akai's office. There are several bunnies zooming around the room.

The Corridor

The Corridor is along the outside of every classroom, and it is outside every room in Lyreade.

Ancient Runes

The classroom is exactly the same as the Lore classroom. Nobody teaches this yet.
