The Blattine - a tiny exclave that's on Caeru's side of the river but technically, by specific readings of specific treaties, belongs to Rutilus. This is what started the war, initially. 6. Falcon's Caer 7. Apparently infinite wilderness 8. Apparently infinite ocean 9. The Sisterhood of Wholesome Discipline, some way down the river `House Rutilus and Caeru got into a dispute over who owned what land, it escalated to violence, Vardan got in on the chaos, Luteus got caught in the crossfire` ### Teachers #### Luteus ##### Evelyn Forbes, headmistress ![](https://i.imgur.com/uX4jeSz.png) Don't know much. ##### Gwendolyn, counsellor ![](https://i.imgur.com/mE6pK5O.png) doesn't like school being on former Luteus territory, possible that can be used to open her up #### Vardan ##### Ms Chapman, alchemy ![](https://i.imgur.com/HuXifdx.png) Sent Danika and Abbie to detending ##### Costigan ![](https://i.imgur.com/Pdb8BpK.png) She's a Vardan fencing instructor, Nadia may already know her #### Rutilus ##### Edgar, ettiquette ![](https://i.imgur.com/sVLC405.png) Himbo of hidden depths.

Grant ## Journal ### Marpenoth 1 #### Come Together, Right Now (She One Holy Roller) Everybody meets up for a big inspiring speech. Nobody is inspired, and it seems from the headmaster's speech like House Luteus is involved in this, if not under duress, at the very least they're not totally thrilled about it. (This comes up again later.) We get a tour of the school grounds. Edgar, one of our Ettiquette teachers, is not supposed to give us a tour of where the bar/pub is, but he tells us he's not supposed to, which gives us all the pointers we need. Frankly this is the thing that has put us on the path to ruin. Or success. Or ruccess. Marina incites the first of many Nadia Gay Panics, takes a string, and invites everyone to the pub. Everyone will _eventually_ make it there, but Edward takes the long route, hits on _Lisette's best girl_ Yuria, and invites her for a date. That will go well! And Tatiana is late for what can only be described as "Tatiana reasons." #### Everybody Comes to Rick's We were all at the pub. Nothing interesting happened. #### So Much For The Afterglow We go back to our rooms. Nadia has to be practically carried because she's almost as drunk as Mariette, who is basically legally dead. (She gets better, thanks to some healing from Tatiana. This is probably the last time that things are fine between Tatiana and Mariette, frankly.) Marina and Nadia have a talk where Nadia misunderstands Marina's level of interest in her and gets very upset about it, in what seems to be the last time that the thing that Marina does to upset Nadia doesn't make Marina look like a Captain Planet villain. ### Marpenoth 2 It is important at this point to note that Edward's date with Yuria did not go well. This will be covered again elsewhere, but it's important at this point to note it. But first, lessons! #### Ettiquette Edward goes to blackmail class. This seems like a waste of everyone's time, because Edward already knows how to blackmail. Edward will also work "don't you think it's weird that we have a blackmailing class" into conversation roughly (checks notes) every conversation. (Yes, Edward, it is weird.) #### Alchemy The pair in class that makes the best light potion gets a vial of ambrosia. This goes to Tatiana and Lisette. Tatiana apparently alters the recipe to make the potion glow brighter but not as long, which certain people will later refer to as "cheating" and Lisette will insist is "trying." #### Swordplay ...this fucking bullshit. The short version: Nadia and Mariette get sent to detending. #### A Study Into Whether Or Not Marina Has Object Permanance Nadia: Marina, I would like to continue our conversation from yesterday over dinner tonight. Marina: Sounds fun! Nadia: [departs] Marina, turning to Bridget: Want to have dinner tonight? Bridget: Sounds fun! Further study is required, but preliminary results suggest "no." #### Lisette And Abbie Spar In the special edition of this TSL campaign, George Lucas will use CGI to fix the part where Abbie manages to spend a whole scene not being a total bitch. #### You Were Promised More Detail About Edward's Failed Date And Here It Is Fucking Edward. #### Scenes From A Rutilian Restaurant The origin of the `Sword Bitch` appelation. Also, Marina breaks someone's heart that isn't Nadia's for once. #### In Da Club Mariette ditches us to have sex. #### Interview With The Vampire Marina is back at the dorms, hotboxing tobacco because nobody told her there's magical weed on campus. The smoke makes Mariette, who is back from her sex-having, uncomfortable, because TSL vampires apparently breathe, _like losers do_. Nadia helpfully offers to ### Marpenoth 3 A fresh day, a fresh start! Marina tries to patch things up by inviting Nadia to a maybe-date later that day, a fact that will brought up when Marina is tried in the motherfucking Hague. #### A Second Study Into Whether Or Not Marina Has Object Permanance *Nadia goes into her bedroom* *Marina starts canoodling with Mariette right outside the dorm with the door open* *Nadia exits her bedroom and sees this* Marina: ![](https://i.imgur.com/a3DHB4U.png) This corroborates previous findings that Marina, in fact, lacks object permanance. ### Marpenoth 4 Francis sucks at Etiquette Abbie continues to be a bitch
