A cold light breeze of the coming twilight passes Kit’s dark hair flowing beautifully with the wind, his green eyes hides as he feels the breeze tracing his face, his black cloak drifting through the gust like wings creating a whipping song lost in the loud chatter of the flowing traffic of the bustling city. Kit opens his eyes and surveys the area; the different colors of clothes of the city folks shade his vision while the scent of food embraces his nose, this city never stops amusing him. Dragon’s End, the capital city of the Republic and also largest and the oldest city in the continent of Osloris, built in what now is an inactive volcano known as Dragon's End which is known for its three massive black walls surrounding each district of the First City. The first wall also known by locals as the Outer Wall protects the lower district which houses the poorest citizens of the Republic. The second wall or the Middle Wall protects the middle district which is composed of numerous middle class merchants, temples and residents who are wealthier than the lower district and finally the third wall or the Inner Wall defends the richest of the rich families in the Republic. The Tribunal Chamber which is the seat of power in the Republic is also in the protection of the Inner Wall and where Kit currently is.
Finished with his work in the middle district, Kit returns to the inner district as he crossed the bustling street while avoiding being seen by anyone. He wore his old light armor weathered by nature and his sword that was given to him by his adopted father in an old scabbard on his hips hidden by the dark cloak that he just bought before he enters the inner district.
He can already see his destination, The alabaster colored tower shaded in black by the approaching night as the diamond shaped magic crystals around the tower begin to radiate its beautiful blue hue that can be seen all the way to the port. That tower is also known as the Gilsorths Institute of the Arcane which is both a school and a library for the wizards of the Republic. It was founded by one of the great founders as well as heroes of the Republic, Elian Gilsorths, the Great Mage. It was once overseen by the Great Mage himself until his departure; now it is administered by the Circle, which is composed of five powerful wizards chosen by their own colleagues. The Gilsorth Institute of the Arcane is famously known for producing powerful and accomplished wizards such as the much more famous son of the late Emperor Dario I of the Golden Empire.
