A Traveler's Guide to Hyrule; Thursday, First Period [12/02].

[in_sidon_we_trust]

"Good morning, my eager and intrepid travelers of Hyrule!" Sidon greeted the class with his usual energy and excitement, surprising absolutely no one, with a toothy, eager grin on his face that shifted in a tragically regretful expression. "Welcome to the last leg of our journey; it seems our time here with this semester shall be coming to an end soon! But fear not! There is still at least one thrilling adventure I have planned for you in the last class," here, he threw in a wink so they would know that what he had planned was truly a doozy!, "but that means we have but this class and the next one to learn of all the finer details of my great and thrilling world!

"We have already covered a great many thing here in this class that has hopefully given you a lot to think about! We've talked about geography and the different people who populate the world, their various cultures and some of their legends and stories. We've talked about monsters and fighting them and the terrible Calamity Ganon that still plagues the land and threatens our ultimate destruction at every turn! We've talked about stables and other various tips for travelers. But today, I'd like to ask you: is there anything you'd like to learn about that we have yet to talk about? Or that you'd like to learn about more?

"If it's something simple, we can discuss it here today, or, if it's more complex, that is what we shall use our last lesson before the big finale for! So what would you like to still cover or explore in greater depth?

"And when we are discussing that," Sidon concluded with a nod, "I shall like to request of you a great favor! I would like for each of you to write for me an essay....nothing too long, worry not! I am still not the best at reading English, I must admit, so I certainly don't expect a grand novel, by any means!" Here he chuckled lightly. "But I would very much like to read about which part of Hyrule has captivated you the most and for what reasons, so if you would be so kind as to put that all down on paper for me to consider for later, I would very much appreciate it.

"So, then!" He clapped his hands together and let out a bright laugh. "Let's get to it! Here's your chance to bring up any questions or thoughts on what you feel might be missing in your Hylian education, and if there isn't much, well, then, I'll leave you two to get to work on those essays!"

Library, Thursday 12/2

Belle had been mildly alarmed at the appearance of large white bears this morning but decided after only a moment that they were actually adorable, particularly when holding out bottled beverages and looking so hopeful that she'd accept them.

A book on polar bears had helpfully placed itself on the desk, along with one on the history of Coca-Cola, and one with a detailed section on Fandom advents past that was proving very interesting. She'd been here nearly a year and this island was still quite surprising.

Belle was seated at the desk, sipping a soda, and alternating between those three volunteer books and one she'd found for Five to peruse that at least mentioned symbiotic abilities.

Bardic Inspiration 2: the Bardening, Thursday, Period 2

The tavern that was their classroom was packed with NPC fans. Some might have been vaguely Anakin shaped, but that was just a fluke of the system.

"So, fans can be very nice," Jaskier said, projecting over the hysterical screams of the fans.

"Then there's the other kind," Cara said. "The crazy kind. But luckily, Jaskier has plenty of experience with those."

Usually cuckolded spouses were after him, but sometimes it was fans!

"A bodyguard is a good idea," he said, sort of just creeping around to have Cara be between him and the screaming throngs.

"Violence does tend to take care of them," Cara agreed. "Unless they have strange and powerful magic." Was someone still repressing trauma from that one BDE? Not any that she was going to admit to.

Meanwhile, Jaskier's BDE trauma leaned more a burning hatred of K.K. Slider.

"And now, as practice, we shall run away from our adoring fans lest they tear us apart," Jaskier said. Bet you didn't think this would be a running class.

"Remember, you don't have to be faster than them, you just need to be faster than him." Cara, no.

World Mythology, Thursday, Period 3

[atreideslioness]

Ghanima was not wearing her normal formal Imperial clothing. Instead of her usual elaborate gown and hat, she was dressed in her Fremen robes, hair pulled back into a simple ponytail instead of twisted into a cascade of complicated braids as she sat on the floor, awaiting them.

"Today, we're going to discuss what happens when myth becomes reality," she said, gesturing for the students to take seats on the pillows and cushions heaped around the room. "As some of you may know, myth does not always stay detached from our day-to-day lives. On occasion, myth becomes fact, fiction turns reality, and we are left with the aftermath of our gods and heroes."

"This is not as theoretical as you think. In Fandom alone, anything is possible, and many of us are from worlds where that it has already happened at least once," Ghanima said. "So, what do we do when faced with such an event? How do we reconcile the merge of two previously incompatible worlds?"
