With construction very near completion, Theory felt herself drawn to the schoolgrounds more and more. She paced the perimeter, inspecting all entrances to the interior for structural soundness, and admiring the view to the crashing waves below. The classrooms and first set of dormitories were done. All that was left now was to clear away the rest of the materials from construction, excess dirt and debris, and then some thorough cleaning... light touches. That's all that was left. Theory took a long, deep breath and let it all sink in: it was happening. Soon students would trickle in - some were already here - and fill the hallways with laughter and the quiet scuffles of studying between lectures. Her dream was becoming a reality.

The Headmistress sat before the school and let it all sink in.
