Extend the Story - Add a Room

You study the map in your hands, your eyes lingering on a familiar marking; the Grand Hall. A quiet realization settles in as you piece it together. This is the same place where you first entered the academy, the path that led through the massive iron gates and into a new chapter of your life. With your mind made up, you slip past the gathering crowd of students, weaving through conversations and curious stares, and push open the heavy doors without hesitation.

The moment you step outside, cool air brushes against your face, carrying a crisp, refreshing chill. It feels grounding, almost calming. Your footsteps echo softly as you follow the stone pathways stretching across the courtyard, each worn slab hinting at centuries of passing mages. Soon, the towering iron gates come into view once more, just as imposing as before.

Nearby stands a graceful statue of a woman holding a torch high above her head, its flame burning steadily without smoke or flicker. Two ornate lampposts flank the path, their enchanted lights glowing endlessly. As you take in your surroundings, more of the campus reveals itself. To your left, elegant buildings line up neatly, likely the dormitories. To your right, a structure emitting faint, colorful fumes which can only be the potion laboratory.
