As the rest of the class came strolling back, some groups more successful than other brining back a patron or two, waited patiently as Professor Annabelle was still engrossed in conversation with Balefire.

”They've been talking for a really long time.” Jay said looking at them.

”Professor Annabelle is a famous researcher so she's bound to be extremely interested in what Mr Balefire has to say.” Grace replied.

”... Kind of weird being a hero but still choosing to live a quaint quite life.” I said looking at him.

”Yeah..... That's quite rare..... Most heroes went on to do great things and were even allowed to live in Xoria.....” Helen said also looking at him ”Goes to show how humble he is….” She added.

”Imagine if he became a professor or even went on to a state researcher.... He could have probably produced even more great and amazing inventions.” Jay added.

”To be honest all this is pretty impressive..... We don't have anything like this at home.” I said to everyone.

”What do you mean?” Daisy asked looking confused.

”You know.....whatever it is that makes this whole place look and feel like another location.” I answer Daisy.

”I dunno... if you had questions about Serra or some other religions I would know though.....” Daisy smiled.

”I assume it's some sort of Artificing with Illusion magic... but the only form of illusion magic that I know that's tangible is Moon Elf illusion magic... and that's is only in the presence of a full moon..... So I don't even know how Professor Annabelle was able to replicate it.” Helen explained.

”Yah..... This was one of the things we wanted to experience first hand.” Grace smiled.

”I find it hard to believe that Elves wouldn't have this sort of stuff....” Jay commented rather intrigued.

”Ummm.... yes we Elves are more attuned to Arcanum then other races..... Every Elf can naturally produce magic in one form or another..... But Elves as a race see no use for Artificing.... they think it's an insult to generations of tradition.” Grace answered obviously disagreeing with her peers.

”So you mentioned moon elves..... Are you and Helen a special type of elf.... as well?....” Jay hesitantly asked.

”Yes..... Grace is a Dawn elf and I'm a night elf.” Helen answered with a smile.

”So..... Do you guys have cool things like you mentioned earlier with moon elves.... and Sun Elf blades?....” Daisy asked in excitement.

”Yes..... Night Elves can artificially creature an area of magical darkness snuffing out all types of light, and Dawn Elves can channel energy to produce a form of Sun beam...” Helen answered.

”Okay class well done every! No mass city riots today so that's a win..... Although I can tell some of you got into a few scraps. She said looking at a few dirtied students.” Professor Annabelle said to the class. ”I want you all to meet! Sooty Balefire one of the greatest Heroes and Chief Engineer of Xoria during the Oblivion War.” She said smiling letter Mr Balefire walk forward causing everyone to gasp.

”Ummm..... Hello everyone... I was never really good at speeches or addressing large crowd..... I actually prefer the quiet quaint life... but I want to thank you all.... looking at all your faces and the great people you will all become made everything during that dreaded time worth it.” He smile taking a deep bowl in front of the class.

The whole class fell silent taking a deep bow in return feeling truly humbled by his speech. ”No..... Mr Balefire... we are truly thankful for your sacrifice...” Professor Annabelle stood him up and bowed deeply. Making Mr Balefire to start tearing up, Mr Balefire and the scenery around us slowly faded into light particles and the world began transforming back to our classroom.

”100 Points to Phoenix for achieving the goal of the lesson and allowing us to all meet a Legend....” Professor Annabelle announced to the class wiping away a tear.

”Umm Professor?.... what did you mean by sacrifice?..” A student asked the class.

”Maybe one day you'll hear his story and accolades in Mr Doddles History class.” Professor Annabelle smiled.

”What was sacrificed?....” I asked Helena, Grace and Jay.

”We're not sure.....” They all replied.

”They say... Those who were too close at the epicentre of it all lost their sanity by even catching a glimpse of the humongous figure....” Jay answered.

”Yeah... there was tremendous losses... both innocent and solider lives.....” Helen answered.

”Yup even Head Master Bran lost his wife...” Grace added.

”Ohhhh no....” I gasped in shock.

”Yes..... She was a well-known follower of Serra..... Apparently she was Serra's Chosen Champion.” Daisy nodded, making me feel really uncomfortable.

”What happened to her?..” I politely questioned.

”If I remember correctly..... She and other healers were trending to wounded soldiers near the front lines... when a Shapling detonated itself inside a Triage centre....” Helen answered sadden from recalling the story.
