Instructor Maren closed her notes with a clean, final motion.
"That's enough for today," she said, looking out at the class with her usual even expression. "We covered the foundational principles of mana flow and core stabilization. Most of you are already familiar with the basics... today was about making sure everyone is standing on the same ground before we move forward."
She gathered her materials from the desk.
"Your next class will begin shortly. A staff member will come to escort your group to the training hall. That session will have a different instructor." She looked around the room once. "Use the time between now and then to review what you know about basic combat stances. You may need it."
With that she walked out, the door closing behind her with a quiet click.
The room exhaled.
