"Momma, where are we going?" Melody whined. She didn't want to be going to some weird place. She was happy at home, anyways. Aria had been chatting on about school, and needing to learn how to control her strange singing, since when she tended to sing, she tended to hurt Aria's poor elven ears. It was not uncommon for Aria to ask if it was alright for her to go outside while she sang. Aria didn't stunt her learning, or wanting to sing, it was just when she hit high notes that Aria cringed with slight pain that rang throughout her ears.
"Mel, dear, you are old enough not to act like a child. You are a teen after all now." she spoke to her daughter gently, leading her, Mymmy the cat by her side, directing them like he always did. She had asked the cat who could find everything where it would be best for Mel to learn lessons, and to take it slow so they wouldn't get lost. Finally, they were at the gates of the school. "Here we are. Now you can learn," she said smiling at her daughter.
Melody heard a deep chiming note swirl in her heart, filling it with anticipation as she looked at the school. Was this where she would learn music? How to play it, to know it, to love it even more? Since the day she exited her vase she had been singing, though at times Aria taught her old elvish tunes.

Starlight walked slowly to the gates, looking across at the teen. "Thank you. I'll take it from here." She then moved her glance to the pupil. "Welcome to the school of song. This is where we learn about music." She smiled at her. "Would you like to go inside?"

Melody had not yet had much contact with other people, much less adults. She halfway hid behind Aria, making the woman chuckle. "Mom... What am I supposed to do? I don't know anyone yet..."
"You will fit in fine, I'm sure. Starlight will probably enjoy having you here and teaching you. You'll find friends soon enough, and I need to work on maybe opening a school for herbs and healing remedies and poisens for emergencies, but I have to make sure you learn other things too." she said with a chuckle. "Bye bye dear."
Aria was leaving her? But that meant she would be- Gulping she nodded. "Yes, I'd like to come in. I love music, but I have no idea what I'm expected to do."

"Now if you come with me, we can get started straight away, if you like...unless you would like a small tour of the place first?" She led her to a small room at the front of the building. "This is what we must do to all new pupils first." She held out a box of stones, all different colours, shapes and sizes. "Close your eyes and pick one."

Mel stuck her hand out, eyes tightly shut and grasped the first thing that came to hand, a sharp one that pricked her palm slightly because of the many edges. It was hopefully a green or torquoise one, she hoped. Those were favorite colors, in any case. She opened her mouth to ask a simple question, eyes still closed, "Now what?"

"Open your eyes and see your stone. You will need this for your first two stages here at the school, and even after that, so keep it safe. Here is mine." She pulled out her necklace which showed a smooth, emerald-green stone with a hole in it for the string.

The stone was a clear torquoise color that reflected some light. Mel smiled. It was pretty. Looking at Starlight she arched a brow, "Okay, do I need to put it on a necklace too? And what does it do? How does it work?" Obviously, the dam of questions had been let lose, leaving torrents of them to flow.

"Let's start at the beginning shall we? This stone is your stone that is unique. It has been selected by fate. The box is magical...so the stone that is perfect for you will come out." She placed the box gently on the side. "It is important to keep your stone safe, but no, it doesn't need to be a necklace. Just keep it on you at all times. The stone...this enhances the signals given off by your music. Each stone is different and will work for a certain type of person-and thus the choosing." She looked into her eyes. "You must use the stone to amplify your messages and thus magic can come from song."

Melody nodded, her eyes bright with amazement. She had no idea about all of this. It was so confusing, she thought. "I see... but... I don't understand how to amplify anything..." she muttered slightly, shaking her head, making the green hair sway around her head. ((bb tomorrow morning or tonight.))

"That's what I'm here to teach!" She giggled a little. "But first...you must have a wander around. Get your bearings." (c ya)
