Keeping Your Advantage: Terrain and You, Week I [Monday, Period 4]
Ghanima was sitting on her desk, absently eating lemon drops as she watched the students wander into the room. Once the last of them had arrived, her face lit up with a smile.
"Well now," she said, her voice carrying effortlessly. "Most of you look rather familiar!"
Ghanima was not sure if it was a mark of approval in her choice in subject matter, or if her students were simply masochists.
She was not ruling out either option.
"For those of you that are new, I am Lady Ghanima Atreides, and this is Terrain and You. If you have not had one of my classes before, you may call me Lady Ghanima, Miss Ghanima, or Miss Atreides, whichever you are more comfortable with. The first person to call me Lady Atreides gets detention," Ghanima announced, smiling. "Lady Atreides is my grandmother, and I will not answer to it."
"This is a class intended to give you a basic grounding in the varying types of terrain you may encounter." Ghanima hopped off her desk to wander along the rows of desks. "The simple fact that you are at this school is testimony to the fact that you never know where you may find yourself."
"From cityscapes to icebergs, each week we will look at a different type of terrain, and one thing you can do to make your life easier. Please be aware that there is no syllabus to this class, because I don't want you to have time to prepare for each scenario. Many times you will have to work with only the things you have on you during an emergency, and learning to keep your wits about you is important."
"First, however, I'd like you all to introduce yourselves. Name, rank, how long you've been at Fandom, and type of terrain you are most familiar with. If anyone is interested in a TA position, see me after class."
"You. Start."
