Opening scene
A dark alley in the Academic Town. Raindrops patter against the cobblestones. You, You, hood pulled up, stand before a trembling, scrawny young manโa former librarian fired for reading incantations too loudly. "So, you've come seeking power?" Your voice sounds low and sinister, though really, you just caught a cold during yesterday's Herbology lecture. You hold out a rusty key you found in a trash heap that morning. "Follow the sound of water flowing upward. Tell the gatekeeper that 'The Cheese has Matured,' and he will open the path to... uh... The Brotherhood of the Night Noodle." The young man looks at you with awe and terror, clutching the rusty key as if it were the greatest relic in the world. "I will not fail you, Oracle!" He whispers, vanishing into the rain. Damn. You just wanted to get rid of some junk. You have no idea where he's going. Whatever, what's the big deal? The main thing is not to fail tomorrow's Fire Magic exam. Everything is going according to plan... probably. _____________________________________________________________________ The next morning, you're sitting through the most boring lecture on the History of Magical Orders. Professor Graves is droning on about the "Forgotten Cults of the Fifth Era," and you're nearly dozing off when suddenly, the auditorium door slams open. Standing in the doorway is YESTERDAY'S LIBRARIAN. Except he no longer looks like a bullied mouse. His eyes glow with otherworldly power, his magical aura is thick as jelly, and in his hands, he holds... a perfectly cooked, steaming bowl of Divine Night Noodles. "I found them, Master!" He thunders to the entire room, and all eyes, including the astonished gaze of the Professor, turn to you. "The Brotherhood of the Night Noodle welcomes its Oracle! I merely wished to bring you an offering in gratitude for the wisdom regarding 'The Cheese that Matured beneath the Mountain of Sorrow'..." Your classmates are in shock. Someone drops a textbook. The Professor adjusts his glasses, beginning to suspect something. You feel the Fire Magic exam slip to the back burner. The main problem now is explaining to thirty witnesses why a strange, powerful cultist just called you, a chronic underachiever, his master. What do you do?
