"Delwias Island is ..falling" That's how Lautner started his first class while looking at his students' eyes.

After the last triple full moon a lot of things changed, people died more than average in all of the districts, and the dark energy seemed to spread more and more to the core of the region.

But the statistics shown to the masses had the same numbers as all the past triple full moons .

For a year the statistics made by the expedition that investigated the world beyond showed various irregularities compared to the previous years, but it was kept a secret by the seventh king himself to avoid a lot of chaos when his subjects know.

The red and purple aurora was spotted in the district three days after the triple full moon; some of the hunters declared that they heard weird noises in the woods that horrified even the courageous ones among them.

Some low-ranked mages just woke up one day unable to use their own magic.

Reports flooded the seventh king's palace in the first district, everything seemed to be falling apart .

What was once a theory started to be a true main event, the first region is not linked only to the world beyond like a bridge by those gates that open once in ninety days, this time the distance between them decreased even when they are not in the same dimension but the dark energy corrupted the region's core entirely.historical

Not only monsters can appear now, but even destruction by natural phenomena is also expected.

Three days ago, a dormant volcano caused a lot of damage in region four and the rain caused flooding in region five.

The seventh king kept all rumors silent, the other regions didn't even know what was happening there.

The annual evaluation was about to happen, people around here didn't know that this was planned to be the last evaluation ever, even high-ranked mages in this place didn't know about that except for some of the people working in the palace but they chose to be silent so that they are not sentenced for treason .

Lautner had a brother named Alfred who worked in the palace as a cook there and that's why he knew all of this, he even knew about the order sent to teachers to leave this place after the end of the test.

Alfred was a low-ranked mage, he passed the evaluation test for years now but he couldn't pass it not even with the notes of his brother .

Lautner's colleagues thought that it was a usual procedure, but he knew exactly what to expect.

People from above want to do it silently, just like any other day they leave all the low-ranked mages here to face their horrible faith and for him, that meant that he would leave his family.

His crippled mother and his two younger sisters were aged 20 and 35 and his brother, all of them were low ranked mages, tried to pass the test a year after another without success, only he passed the test but he chose to descend as a teacher to stay closer to them.

The seventh king chose to abandon everyone here, and for him, that meant that he was forced to leave his beloved family .

Isiah's talk that day kept spinning in his mind, yeah ..his family must have thought that he was weak for the past years for leaving them every triple full moon.

He hated to admit it but Isiah was right when he said those rude words.

One of the kids named Garen said:" What do you mean mister Lautner? ,"

Lautner was tormented by the look of faith on his student's face, he looked up to him as if he was some kind of role model .

Sika added:" The triple full moon happened only days ago ..what do you mean by that expression?"

Lautner's head was blank, he couldn't answer their questions so he kept standing there feeling their looks torturing his guilty soul that knew what was coming towards them but chose to ignore it .

" Make sure to pass this year's evaluation..do your best ..like your life is depending on it"

He then collected his botany books and looked at his student for one more time then walked away.

His colleagues didn't know about this thing and that's why he felt burdened by information, he met Adelita when he was on his way out so he chose to ignore her.

She stopped him saying:" Despite our constant arguments don't just get passed me without greeting..what should a woman do around here to have some respect"

He looked into her eyes and then said :"Did you get the leaving order!"

"Yes..they said ..it's only for a week "

" Let's say that it is your last time to set a foot in this region"He couldn't even contain his words because he felt frustrated.

" What ..what..what..are you saying?"

Adelita never saw Lautner that way, he was not the type to look sad but now this time he looks entirely broken.

He wanted to continue walking when she said:" What does this mean!"

He chose to stay silent but she followed him again and stood in front of him and said:" You need to explain what you said ..I am not letting you leave before that "

Lautner was not himself and the fact that everything around him is falling apart was making him go crazy .

" Let's leave this place first, " He said impatiently .

Adelita followed him all the way outside the institution, he walked fast and his expressions were mysterious.

He stopped only when Adelita got tired of walking after realizing they were alone in that place and no one would hear them.

" What is happening?"

" This place ..the Delwias Island is doomed "

" That's not a new thing ..this place is doomed from the first place "

"After the annual evaluation day, this place will be abandoned by the higher regions, it is a direct order from Elysium"

The annual evaluation is going to happen two days from now"

"Yes..I know .."
