On the Independent

Within two weeks of the semester starting at Clock Tower, Waver finds himself mired in academic squabbles amongst his fellow lords that contribute nothing of value to the actual goals of the Association - that is unless dumb arguments are their goals which after twelve years Waver suspects might actually be the case. Worse yet, he finds himself becoming dragged into them with constant questions of what he plans to do to further establish himself. After all, he’s proven himself skilled, and those skills need to be passed on through a direct heir rather than a large group of students. Vaguely, Waver wonders if everyone remembers last year when he first published his case study and the idea of breathing the same air as him sent every last employee at Clock Tower running in the opposite direction. He’d worry that his work didn’t make an impact if people still weren’t angrily assassinating his character in the magecraft journals.
