The Academy is the perfect place for Will to achieve his hopes and dreams too. Assuming he does well in Swords and Sorcery, Apprentice Alchemy, Dungeon Excursions, P.E., and a whole host of crazy training courses in his novice schedule. Will may need a little help with that.

In a book with a story within a story, there's usually a main or outer story that sets the framework. For example, in 'The Arabian Nights', the outer story is about Scheherazade and the king. Then, the inner stories are told by the characters within that outer story. These inner stories can serve different purposes. They can provide examples, add depth to the characters in the outer story, or just be a form of entertainment within the world of the book. They often have their own beginnings, middles, and ends, but are related to the overall theme or situation of the outer story.
