To whom it may concern,[/font]
It has been brought to our attention that you are ensnared by the boundaries of this world; a young person with abilities that no one seems to understand. We are sure you are wondering where your abilities come from and why you are the way you are. All of us, too, once wondered why we were different. It is a cause of the changing of the century; a push into the year two thousand five hundred. An epidemic, they call it. An outbreak of 'oddities', those with magickal powers that far outweigh any of those of normal humans. Furthermore, an outbreak of different species that the government has been trying to stifle. Sirens, Demons, Angels, Werewolves, Vampires, Elves; we know of their existence but continue to push them into the background.
This is why we are sending this letter, to inform you of an invitation. An invitation that may very well change your life forever. Included is information about our school, the offer of a lifetime. A chance to start fresh and take classes to hone in on your magickal powers and learn of your mythological backgrounds. Should you choose to accept, you will be offered a valuable education at no cost to your or your parents, should you still be in contact with them. The name of our school is Roseate Spires, and we will welcome you with open arms.
You will not find our school on any map or any website for, to the regular world, we do not exist. It is an incantation that will bring you here. There is no way to contact us other than coming here yourself. You are welcome to think over our invitation. If you choose to join us, gather your belongings and your courage and mutter the words enclosed in this letter. You shall be able to contact your parents, if you care to do so, and you can use the second incantation to visit them.
Upon your arrival you will be greeting me, Headmistress of Roseate Spires, and I will tell you everything you need to know. After learning enough about you, I shall assign you a Shadow; or animal familiar. Your Shadow will be based off of what I gather from your aura, and they will serve as your guide in your years here. Be careful with your Shadow, for if they are injured or killed, you will be as well. I hope this does not deter you, for I am very much looking forward to meeting you.
Now, the time has come to make your decision. Will you utter the incantation and join us, or burn this letter? The choice is yours.
Sincerely,
Headmistress of Roseate Spires[/font]
