A Traveler's Guide to Hyrule; Thursday, First Period [11/11].

[in_sidon_we_trust]

"Good morning, intrepid travelers!" If there seemed to be a little extra oomph in Sidon's greeting that morning, it was for a very good reason that would become evident in short order. But this was a lesson he had been very excited about, and that was the reason why he'd saved this race of Hyrule lesson for last! "So far, we've met many interesting and unique races from all around Hyrule, but this week, we finish out our exploration of the various peoples that populate the land with one that is very near and dear to my heart, as one might expect, and that is my very own people, the magificient! The spectacular! The absolutely wonderful Zora!"

Excuse him a moment while he positively swelled with pride; if either of the students felt like cheering or applauding this reveal, it would not at all be remiss!

"Let us begin!"

( IDK, sounds a little fishy.... )

Taking a moment for himself, for reverence to Mipha, Sidon ducked his head and went quiet for a bit before he continued, some of his energy tampered down into soemthing much softer.

"I could, of course, go on about my people. We have many wonderful stories that I love to share, and, of course, should you have any questions about them, I should hope I have an answer! What kind of future leader of my people would I be if I could not? So, instead of just filling your head endlessly with jabber about the Zora, allow me to turn the discussion to you guys! What would you like to know about the Zora? Do you have a similiar amphibious race where you are from? Would you enjoy living around so much water, or do you prefer to stay nice and dry? Obviously," he chuckled again, "this is something near and dear to me, so I am more than happy to discuss whatever you would like about the magnificent Zora!"

Bardic Inspiration 2: the Bardening, Thursday, Period 2

The inn was back and decidedly, incongruously, festive, with brightly coloured floral wreaths draped about the place and little paper umbrellas in the tankards.

"The life of an aspiring bard can be stressful and a lot of hard work," Jaskier began. "Which is why relaxation and learning to unwind can be very important to keep creative juices flowing."

"Though you're probably going to want something harder than juice if you want to really relax," Cara added. "Pleasant company doesn't hurt either."

"Some people enjoy the beauty of nature, some people prefer to get lost in the bustle of a city, " Jaskier said. "So, today is to discover what you enjoy most for relaxing."

"Within the bounds of what's 'appropriate' for class." Which ruled out most of Cara's favourite options.

World Mythology, Thursday, Period 3

[atreideslioness]

 The moment the students were seated, Ghanima launched into her lecture. 

"Given that we're in the early stage of winter," she began, "We'll start with the myths of a land known for its winter.  Today, we journey to Northern Europe, to take on Norse mythology."
( Ragnarök. It's the End of the World As We Know It. )

"According to Völuspá, it will be an axe age, a sword age, shields are cleft asunder, a storm age, a wolf age, before which the world plunges headlong'," she recited, eyes closed as she then repeated the phrase in Norse.  "Yggdrasil, the World Tree, will groan and shudder, shaking from root to limb, and nothing will then be unafraid on earth or in the heavens or in Hel. "  Ghani smiled softly, hopping up to sit on her desk.  "Cheery, isn't it?  Now, let's talk about the end of the world."
