House Thuban

All the newbies were being selected for their academy houses, all of them were going to the tables of their respective houses and they were all full of other students and they all looked happy. You were in the dark corner and alone, sitting at an old table where it was even cold. You wondered if that was right. After a while, when all the other students went with their groups (your girlfriend and friends were selected for the House Regulos), Deputy Principal Ursula came to talk to you, accompanied by other teachers. They asked you if you had ever dealt with black magic, read something about black magic or had any contact with this type of magic feared by everyone. You have denied all questions.

"Well" Ursula said with a sigh "having reactivated the House Thuban can mean turbulent times, but it can also mean that you will be a very powerful wizard, or even mean nothing. Time will tell. Anyway, you're the only member of the house, so..."

"Not really." Said one of the teachers. "There's that one, long asleep... Aless Dark."

"Aless Dark?" You noticed a tremor in the director's voice "but he's been sleeping for five hundred years."

"But technically he is the only student left of the dragon's house."

"You're right..."

"What are you talking about?" You wanted to know.

"Aless Dark is a vampire, the last known member of the Thuban household, maybe he can help you not be a lone wolf."

"A vampire?! Is a vampire my only companion on this journey?"

"The choice is up to you, whether to wake you from your secular sleep or not."

"Where can I find him?"

"In the dungeons of the castle on the northwest island. But I must warn you, no one has been there for centuries, not even the teachers, it's been a desolate place since the extinction of the sixth house."

"What happened to the House Thuban to have that destination?"

The teachers looked at each other uncomfortably.

"You will have to find this out, Warren Morinehtar... and beware of that place, the northwest island is forbidden to any student, you are the exception, go well prepared to find dangerous creatures and beware of the dungeons, they have traps too. If you can wake the vampire, treat him flatteringly, or he'll wake up in a very bad mood and you don't want to see that. You are a good student, but you are still just a novice, very careful. May destiny guide you." Saying this, the woman left with the body of teachers who came to question you.

One teacher in particular stayed where she was. She had very long hair, which should go up to her heels, blond and straight, her skin was very white and her eyes were green, on her head she wore a garland of flowers and she wore a white dress, she probably belonged to the _Sidhe _noble folk, but had no wings or anything like that.

"There is an alternative." She said.

"What alternative?" You wanted to know.

"You can join the House Kaus, which is a counterpart to the Thuban house. We will welcome you in the house of mysteries and you will have companions, not as many as you would have if you were from Regulos, for example, but still more than just a vampire and you would not need to face the danger of the dungeons. What do you say?"
