Shilan- Torignis
------------------------
The long train ride was uneventful, except for a couple times Akina and Sheila broke into feirce arguments about seemingly nothing. Shilan didn't know whether to cringe away or laugh out loud. He did nothing. As they say, Hell hath no fury like a woman's scorn. Shilan noticed something strange about Akina, the wings on her head... But he couldn't place what she was, and so forgot about it.
As the train came to a halt, Shilan transfigured Khayame and his cage into a bracelet so he could carry them easier, then left the train, hearing a voice say "First years over here please,". He walked toward it. He found it weird, being used to hearing Hagrid saying that all the time. No matter, he climbed into a boat and it skimmed to the other side of the lake.
Strangely, the castle looked a lot like Hogwarts. It was a bit bigger, and a lot more decorated, but still the same. Instead of bare stone walls, there were usually some strange designs or foreign carpets or something.
"My name is Professor Aquila and as headmaster of Aortas Auror Academy, I sincerely welcome all first years to our family. In a few moments you will be appraoch the Sorting Shell and place it to your ear. Then, you will be sorted into one of the four houses which you will remain in for the rest of you school life here. Again, enjoy yourself at Aortas and remember to learn something too," he said before sitting down, gesturing toward a shell sitting on a chair. He looked around, seeing Akina nervously stuttering to Ajax. The Sheila girl was one of the first ones up, and she went to Torignis, as did Ajax later.
"Shinomori, Shilan!"
Shilan picked up the shell, feeling pretty nervous. His legs felt like jelly, he wondered vaguely how he was still standing. He put the shell up to his ear.
Well this is an easy one the shell said quickly, before yelling out "Torignis!"
Shilan shrugged, walking over to the Torignis table, taking a seat across from Ajax.
OOC: I won't be able to post until Friday. Just consider me a NPC till then...
