do tell me there is a sequel or something? otherwise i may have to be upset great story! I was also a tad confused about what happened with Bryce, ty for clarifying that.

Beauhamelais - Sixth of the nine great capitals of the Empire - 4,943 leagues from the Imperial Rainbow City So this is Beauhamelais mused Derix. After travelling many days from his maritime homeland of Liirium, he was thrilled to finally arrive. I knew it was beautiful, but wow! I never imagined this... Beauhamelais was like no other city. It almost appeared as if the city was being devoured by the forest at the same time that it was expanding. Gleaming buildings of blue and white surrounded by the brown and green of the trees, impossibly high crystalline structures supporting flowing flowers of every colour, trickling water flowing down cascading waterfalls, and polished paths of coral and seashells were just the start of the city's wonders. Everything about Beahamelais screamed of beauty, from the scenery to the fashion style, elegant silks in the brightest colours, soldiers in armor so polished you could see a reflection, flowing dresses made from the finest materials, and alluring gemstone laid into the most luxurious jewelry he had ever seen. It was meant to be a city of over a million souls yet there was a stately quietness to Beauhamelais. Derix found most of her wide avenues to be sparsely trafficked even the great Emerald Plaza could not have had anymore than 200 souls in it. As he was looking around wide eyed, he missed the approach of a city guard. “First time in the city, young one?” Whirling around in surprise, Derix blushed heavily before nodding, not trusting his voice to stay steady. Swallowing to calm his nerves, he replied that he was summoned to the Rainbow Academy of Beauhamelais for training. “Ah, a young mage then! Don't get many of those these days, not many at all.” The guard had a whistful look in his eyes for a moment before shaking his head. “You'll want to keep going down this avenue here,” the guard indicated one with light pink seashells and purple coral. “This will take you right up to the academy. Not that it's hard to miss, glowing as it does with all those Sun-Burst Lilies the mages like to grow.” The guard motioned towards the forest ceiling far ahead, and the dancing lights coming from somewhere on the ground. “Thank you, sir.” Derix was hoping everyone here was as friendly as the guard. “The glow of His Emeraldic Majesty shine upon you! Welcome to the Tourmaline City!” said the guard as he moved off down the street. Making his own way down the street revealed more wonders. The shops were displaying marvellous items, from glowing crystals that the signs proclaimed could be turned on and off with a touch, providing 'The cheapest and most convenient light found anywhere in Indiron', to exotic petshops providing everything from adorable furry animals with pointy ears to jewelled reptiles that sparkled a rainbow of colours as they moved. Looking to the end of the street he saw the source of the glow of dancing lights that shone through the foliage far above. There, at the top of a small hill, was a building that looked entirely organic. Rising out of a complex root system was an enormous tree, bigger than any he had ever seen. It was situated in a large park and surrounded by shell white buidings fronted with wide porches. Secretly, he bet that it was the biggest in the world. Covering the tree were thousands of blossoms moving with a life of their own, glowing in all the colours of the rainbow. “Amazing, aren't they?” “Ah, what?” Startled, Derix looked around quickly, trying to find who had spoken to him. “The flowers, young Telekinetic!” A kindly older gentleman in white and green responded. “Oh, yes. They are. Can you hear them too?” he asked, for he could hear them chiming and ringing in a thousand musical notes. “Hear them? No, I don't believe I do. Are you sure you are feeling alright? I've never heard of anyone describing a noise to accompany Sun-Burst Lilies...” the older man was gazing down at Derix with interest. “No, I feel fine. Perhaps it's nothing... Not to be rude, but who are you? You don't look like most of the people around here.” “Oh dear me, I had forgotten not everyone knows me! I am Grandmaster Lorshan, Headmaster of the Rainbow Academy here in Beauhamelais,” replied the man, gesturing at the expansive grounds of the campus. “And you must be Derix, our newest recruit this year. It isn't often we see your kind around here! Telekinetic and a Psi-Gen? Yes a very rare combination indeed.” Derix gaped. “Sir, how did you – wait did you read my...” The mage smiled mysteriously. He seemed to sparkle with power and it made Derix give up trying to entertain his incredulousness. He changed the subject. “Umm how exactly do we get into the school? I don't see any door or openings...” “Ahhh, one must ask nicely! The tree is very much alive, and it creates doorways to the outside as needed. Come, let me show you” It's now been three weeks since I arrived in Beauhamelais. The professors are all as varied and interesting as the city itself! I've taken to travelling around the city in my spare time, soaking up the marvels of the city that is now my home. The flowers at the school still whisper to me, telling me secrets about the way things are held together, and gossip about the students and staff. I often sit in my room talking with them for hours. I've felt a pull towards the waterfalls recently, and I can't say why. People swim in the river, however no one seems to go anywhere near the falls. I know that the King is going to the falls in 3 days time where he will offer flowers to the Sprites who are supposed to live there. He does it once a year but few people are allowed to view the ceremony. I think I will have to check it out in the next few days, after all, when I asked the Solum (that's what the lilies like me to call them) about the waterfalls they said it had many wonders to be found. I wonder what they could mean? It's just water, is it not? Derix.

thanks, i'm hoping to get the next chapter out within a month

i don't plan on it, i'm sorry it took so long!!!

“A bit less power perhaps Harry?” Dumbledore remarked, casually flicking his wand at the burning rubble. “Concentration is key to most magics.” Grumbling in frustration, as his previous attempts at Lumos had caused his wand to shoot beams of burning light throughout the room, incinerating the first object they made contact with. Gathering his thoughts, he tried to actively channel less power into his wand. “Lumos,” Harry said, trying to keep his emotions under tight control. A loud snap

In the ancient world of magic, there were several primal elements. Here are some stories, written about them by the Ancient Ones.

WATER (An excerpt from the journals of Rishala Pwate'er) Still, Quiet, Calm. Burbling, Wandering, Whispering. Roaring, Crashing, Breaking. All these and more are the properties of Water. It sings as it ripples over rocks in the river, Growling as it pounds the shore in a storm. Calm, yet Chaotic. Beautiful, yet Terrible. Whether glistening in a calm lake, Or churning in a turbulent sea, Water represents that which is in all of us. Anger and Love,

YAY!!! New Chapter!!! As great as a I remember from my previous readings One spelling mistake: “That spell might be useful tomorrow Harry,” Percy winked. “I’ll also show you a more powerful version of the FlipendoFlipped spell. It’s commonly called the ‘blasting’ spell. Harry already used it I’m told. I’ll help you refine the use of it and I’ll teach Draco how to do so,” Percy said, a bit condescendingly. “Justin, you should also pay attention, though I’m not sure you’ll be able to do it.” Justin looked a little hurt. It should stay as Flippendo
