Nodding, I straightened the strap of my backpack on my shoulder and turned to my fellow students, who had huddled in a flock. Ahead of all and everything was, of course, Siena. The girl stared at the darkened laorte on my chest.

– That can’t be, – she muttered. – You must have cheated. And the broken arch was just staged.

– Think as you wish, – I replied with a shrug, and looked at Adin, my roommate and only friend, a dark yellow pendant hung on the girl’s chest. – Congratulations!

– Mutually, – Adin beamed, then grabbed my arm and walked with me to the main building.

The portal arches were in the center of a vast square in front of the academy. It was on it that we now walked: the time was approaching evening, and in the shade of the trees it was refreshingly cool. As soon as we moved to a safe distance, Adin laughed, wiping her tears.

– Oh, I will never forget the expression on Sienna’s face when you stepped out of the portal with the darkened laorta! – exclaimed the friend. – At first, there was only superiority on her face, and then how she broke off!.. Siena became all green, as soon as her eyes fell on the blackest laorte! Wow, I will never forget this! Adin rolled her eyes dreamily, then frowned and looked straight at me. – Only, Fox, I still don’t understand why you didn’t get to the academy on a tamed dragon, like the rest of the girls, but returned through the portal? – What happened to this arc anyway?
