Bab 2: Cap 2 - Necromancer - The girl who didn't belong to anyone
The day was wonderful compared to last night, which made Elyse even more irritated because she hated days when the weather could be considered good and happy. Finally, after everything she had been through, she was at the door of the largest necromancer institution in all of Majutsuel, one of the three great kingdoms of Adorin, its gates were so high that they made anyone feels like a grain of sand in the middle of the beaches of the Morski Sea, which bathed the constants of the far north of Majutsuel. But greatness was not only in the almost ten lengths of the gate made in a black material like chaos itself. Rumors say that they were not made by human works and that they were the first necromancers when invoking the four great spirits in a great war that nobody can remember for sure with whom they were fighting. But these gates that were built by the great spirits symbolize the contract with future generations of necromancers who would come later and the perpetuation of the contract with the great spirit of death, the strongest among the four.
Elyse always disagreed with the fact that the four great spirits had built those gates, when she had heard this when she was little, in her eyes the spirits would not create something as insignificant as a gate. However, standing in front of this monstrously beautiful and haunting monument made her fully agree that no human could have done that, or at least not without the help of something eternal. The base of the gates was carved with inscriptions in a language she didn't know, and they had such real images of spirits digressing in wars that the images could at any moment jump out of the gates and tear them apart in the blink of an eye, such was the aura that emanated from them. When analyzing carefully, Elyse realized that the black material that was used in the gates was of celestial origin. Any material made of celestial metal was very rare, the holy knights had only a few weapons made of this material, but in that quantity, it was almost impossible to find anywhere else in Adorin. Everyone was staring at the gate with such an almost religious admiration that they were divided to continue admiring or running as far as possible from those gates.
To get into that institution it is not enough just to have skills in the art of necromancy, which is a legacy passed from father to son by the blood they share. Elyse came from a big family, but the shame her name carries now made her have to abandon her clan name and now support another surname. Elyse Bard didn't have to change only her last name, but she also had to change herself for her good. Denying her blood and the terrible secret of her family, which now carried deeper in her flesh than the horrible scars on her back which even after so long remained her signs and the terrible lesson, there are forces in this world which cannot be controlled.
The gates were already opening and around him, there were about seven hundred students who would go through the selection that would determine whether they were worthy to enter the Necromancy of Majutsuel teaching institution. From what she had read in the book "Truths behind the history of the art of necromancy", in the old day's dedication to the art of necromancy caused several deaths and each one could only count on his abilities, which generated several accidents involving spirits and many could lose body parts or become invalid. From the destruction of houses to the decimation of villages occurred by inexperienced necromancers who tried to advance in the hidden arts alone.
So a task force of wandering spirit control always had to be mobilized to exorcise those spirits without masters. It was then that Salazar Birk had the great idea of opening a necromancy teaching institution, but had the problem of where it would be built. According to unofficial history, it is said that he was guided by the four to that place where necromancy was strongest and permitted him to build the necromancer school inside the sacred gates where death was closest to the living. Elyse was anxious and this was natural because the greatest necromancers in the world studied in this institution. Just as the members of her family had studied there for several generations.
The necromancer laws were very strict, if you had the gift in your blood and somehow could not study in school or some others low standard institution you could choose to have your gift sealed since without training the necromancer represents a danger for you and everyone around you. So, in most cases people let themselves be sealed without much resistance, the rate of people who chose to seal their powers was between ten and fifteen percent, some people just wanted to have a normal life, and they couldn't deal with so much information about the hidden things.
The tests always varied over the years. But there are three tests. The first is proficiency in necromancy. Where one evaluates the competence of the initiated in the arts and knowledge about specific terms and rituals of the invocation of spirits, one needs to have a very accurate knowledge of all sorts of knowledge about necromancy. The second is the ability to control dead souls, usually, they put souls of all sorts of people, the most dangerous were attracted by necromancers with a greater flow of magic, and those with a smaller flow were attracted by less violent spirits. And the third is to be put in front of bestial spirits of all sorts of status. In the first two tests generally; few people die, as several instructors followed each stage of the test, but the last was where there was the highest death rate of young aspiring necromancers, even over the attentive eyes of several instructors a bestial spirit was able to kill in a blink of an eye, but usually, passing the first two stages already marked the ability of the necromancer to face the last test.
However, in recent years the selection system began to become even more rigorous, this Elyse didn't know since it had been a long time since she had no news of what was happening in the world of necromancers. This led to a drastic increase in the death rate, even with greater protection measures. This led most parents who are already necromancers to train their children to be able to cope with the difficulties of testing. Elyse was not trained, her family had an end well before the beginning of their training. Until now, she was the only one to carry the legacy of her family. She studied hard and trained her body and mind with the books of her home. She had to realize that she was practically alone for eight solar cycles, only with the help of Simon, the butler who also survived the tragedy. The new initiates can only enter the institution with sixteen solar cycles, since the number of deaths decreased at that age, which made Elyse who was only thirteen years old a criminal, but they never cared if people who were not from big houses would live to die.
{Hi guys, it's me, that one who knows everything! This is our Elyse, a necromancer from the dark past. Later on, I want to put a picture of Adorin's world, I made an outline on paper, so you can get situated. Another observation. A rod of length equivalent to 5.4 fts. I hope you are careful with Majutsuel, do not practice necromancy without studying at an Institute! See you...}
