The day that marked the beginning of Trafalgar's second year at the academy finally arrived.
There was no ceremony for them like the one from their first year.
That part belonged to the new students.
In fact, Aubrelle was doing exactly what she had done last year, helping the new arrivals in the grand hall. Hundreds of seats filled the space, and hundreds of nervous, excited students waited there, wondering what would happen next. All of that was for the first years, of course. Soon they would go through the same first test Trafalgar and the others had faced a year ago.
'Those were the days,' Trafalgar thought, watching from outside.
