The main building of Yokai Academy: up close, it was a huge Neo-Gothic building, made of light and brown stones, carved into elaborated long windows of stained glasses (though its figures were indistinguishable from so afar), arches and flying buttresses. The roof raised acutely over it, made of clay tiles. The layout was a square building, with a big main wing at the center entrance, where the ceremony was held; and towers also on its corners. Above the main wing was a clocktower, dwarfing the other ones.
The students of Yokai Academy converged at the entrance to the Main Building, where a wide set of stone steps led up to the auditorium doors. The soft hum of conversation filled the air, accompanied by the distant rustling of leaves and the occasional bird call. Some students arrived together, chatting animatedly, while others came alone, quietly observing the flow of their peers. There was a palpable sense of anticipation in the air, a mixture of excitement and nervousness that spread through the crowd like a ripple.
[Morning, Minutes before the ceremony - April 1, Mon.]
Down the main path came Konomi running, and just behind her were Ibuki and Sumeriyu. The running girl was stopped short, when two strangers popped out of nowhere on her face! It was Lìng Jíng and Luna!
Still recovering from the mutual surprise, they are once again startled when a winged girl lands roughly at their side, cheering something. Upwards in the sky, they can see another winged girl, hers feathery, falling limp from the sky, unresponsive! A moment after came another girl, mounted on a stick! They were, of course: Kanako, the unknown Tengu and Hanami!
Down the road, being among the last to come, was a single buy, walking unbothered, wearing, with an irregular black tie, yet still formal, outfit. Matsui.
Lastly came, between the forest trees and bushes, a single, foreign looking girl, it was Adela.
