Four years earlier, the construction of the academy had finally reached its end.
The towering buildings that once existed only as sketches and measurements on parchment now stood proudly across the grounds. White stone towers reflected the afternoon sunlight, their tall windows shining like mirrors as a gentle breeze passed through the open courtyards. The once broken and neglected land had been completely transformed. Where cracked walkways and overgrown weeds had once covered the ground, polished stone paths now stretched elegantly between lecture halls, research towers, training arenas, and gardens.
The old academy had been rebuilt. And far beyond that, it had been expanded into something far greater.
