4 hours after peak, a darkly clad woman carrying a large bundle of papers and books enters the Hall of records, moving to a table in the back to wait for her student to arrive, if he was not already there.

When her partner showed (also robed and hooded), she bagan laying out a set of notes for him, and started her lecture.

//The Drow Dictionary //

"First of all....there is grammar. I've laid out the basics on that sheet." Anticipating her student's nod, she continues,"Of itself, it should not be very difficult. The etiquette is what we will focus on, since a lack of it is usually disastrous."

"The Drow are obsessed with status and power. As such, all, even the lowliest, expect to be refered to by their proper title - be it simply "male" or Ulathtallar- High Priestess of Arach-Tinilith, the temple of Lloth and Academy for apsiring Priestesses- Yathrin." She hands yet another sheet of paper to her student. "This is a list of most common titles, as well as other notes on etiquette."

She continues in this fashion for around and hour or two, and at the end of the session, she hands him a few sheets of exercises for practice. Then as she gathers up her things, she gives a pleasent nod of farewell, stepping back into the Sigilian streets.

// the exercises/notes would also go into detail about certain aspects of Drow culture, like the Houses, the Academies, and so forth. //

*Still researching various components, Vara is intrigued and lingers in the background not wanting to interrupt the two as they study as she goes about returning books to their previous places.

However, after several minutes of over hearing the topic and nature of their discussion, she walks over herself holding a stack of papers and a ink well along with a quill pen. She takes a seat from a nearby table and sits down, absorbing what Isonade has to say*

Being ever familiar with lectures as it were in the past. Darremar was fully at ease with lesson. He took notes where he knew important points were made and would furthermore absorb the details of what she imparted with great eagerness.

He would attend to the exercises she left him with due diligence. The formalities of the etiquette he had paid particular note of as it was therein that he would learn much more of the drow as a culture.

*Several times during the lecture a large pair of green buttocks appear pressed against a nearby window. They may or may not be noticed, yet most likely they are ignored.*



(Sorry actual university memories.)

The dark robed tall elf would most definitely refuse to acknowledge such plasterings of buttocks to the window. Especially when noting the rather orcish size of them. He would simply dismiss it as yet another odd orcish custom.

The day after the next, a similar sort of event occured. This time, the woman would ask her student if he had any particular questions on what was learned last time, as well as ask him specific questions on the material that the exercises should have prepared him for.

She would then expand the lesson from his questions, and if he had none, would go a bit more in depth about Drow culture and society; specifically, the worship of Lloth and her priestesses.

At the end of her lecture, she'd hand him another set of exercises and words/ grammar to learn, as well as a set of notes on what she gone over.

*The next day the buttocks appear again... but this time there are two eyes painted on one buttock and the orc is lying down on the grassy verge outside the window and vigorously shaking his buttocks open and closed making his arse crack look like a talking mouth. His muffled words behind the glass are in orcish of course. Who know what's going on up there. Due to the hieght of the window and the insulation the muffled gibbering of the orcs backside is dismissible by any with decent willpower.*

((Sorry tell me if you want it to stop... ICly :plotting: ))

The elf was likely too busy with the studies at hand to pay note to the rather unpleasant sight pressed against the glass. In any event if he noticed he would not pay it any heed.

It's rather uncertain wheter the tutor ever noticed the orc. Likely, she was ignoring it with a studied vigor....or maybe, she was really too engrossed by her job to take much notice.

*Vara attends each session, taking diligent notes as well as asking various question about the customs and habits. Most of her questions are centered around the duties, habits and customs of Matron Mothers*
