Orris walked into the entrance hall of the academy, only to see 3 elves there, one in all white robes, and two others dressed as he was. Must be new here too. he thought to himself. He walked forward, and stood next to the two others that were there.
The man in the white robes began pacing back and forth, "We shall begin your training soon, you must learn to run, jump, climb, hide, and human nature for a start. We will see how much you have learned with a small test" He looked the three of them over again.
Orris stood still, looking at the man in front of him. He motioned for them to follow him further into the academy. The three of them began walking with him. Orris tapped the boy in front of him, "I'm Orris." After that he continued to follow the man in silence.

He watched as the first White Blade attempted this course. He was doing quite well, until the elf had punched him off the ledge. Orris has learned many reasons by watching others mistakes. He decided to give it a go.
He followed the same path as the white blade before him, except when it came to the man, he quickly attacked with a punch that had connected with the mans stomach. The man hunched over, and Orris saw this as his chance to quickly get to the next ledge. He ran towards the edge and jumped, but just as his feet had left the ground, the man grabbed him by the foot, and threw him towards the ground. Orris quickly turned in the air to grab at the man, and succeeded in grabbing his shirt. Orris pulled himself up, and used the momentum to throw the man off balance, and towards the ground.
He pulled himself up from the ledge, and continued on. The ledges were getting smaller and smaller. He looked back to see how far he had gotten, but when he looked back forward, a trap went off. A pole swung out in front of him, hit him in the face, and he fell to the floor. "That is enough. Now lets see how our final white blade shall do..."

Orris and the two other White Blade novices were given pouches that are very well hidden underneath their cloaks. "There are metal bars to weigh you down, only to make you stronger and faster than you would be without them." Orris was also given many books on the different races. The White Blade's needed to know anything and everything about each race.
"You will be taught hand to hand combat, soon after, to fight with a dagger. But only if you are able to kill a small group of humans with your bare hands. Then we will upgrade you to a bigger weapon with each advancement in your training. After combat, you will be taught to climb near impossible surfaces. This includes climbing a flat wall. But don't think that your training is over yet, for the end is far far away. We still need to get all of you in top shape. So we will have you here from sunrise to sunset. You will have a series of tests, pass and you will forever be known as a White Blade. Dismissed"
Orris listened carefully to his trainer's words. As soon as he was dismissed, he went straight to his bunk and began studying.
