Wait outside.

Waiting is the hardest part. You don't feel like wasting an hour in the classroom, and you have an hour to go, so you decide to sit on a bench outside. You see many students pass by, as well as teachers, though sometimes it's difficult to tell. Some students dress up and end up looking like magisters or teachers. After awhile, that point becomes relevant.

A beautiful young woman with long black hair strides by but stops as she sees you. You recognize her as Sarah Plakson. You saw her not long ago, and she's still wearing the same ornate outfit. A window is cut around her upper chest to show a bit more cleavage than you'd like in your current situation, yet again.

Next to her, stuck to her like glue, is the newer girl Ika that you also saw earlier. She's wearing rather tight black pants that you couldn't see before.

Sarah leans down slightly and looks at you, giving you a more generous look at her lovely cleavage than you wish she would right now. You fidget.

"Good to see you again, John. Paulo just went off to check out his new job at the... library. I still can't see that. Him, a dwarf, working at the Golden Tome? I mean, I have nothing against dwarves, but he's Paulo."

You hope his first day is going all right, but in the meantime, you have your own problems.

The two of them sit beside you, Sarah closer while she holds the woman next to her closely. "This is Ika Whyte, if you didn't know. I forget who I've told or not. She's the best, huh?" She giggles.

"Class starting soon, John dear?" She smiles.

"Yeah. Pretty soon, actually. I'll get going in a few."

"You're acting a little strange. Did you sprain your ankle or something?"

"What? What?" You respond immediately, a little panicked.

"The way you were walking before."

"Oh... Yeah. I pulled a muscle," you lie.

"Ah." She looks at you sceptically. "If you ever need help, just let me know. Don't let us keep you any longer. You're a busy man, isn't that right, Ika?"

The other girl nods shyly and smiles.

With that, you get up and make your way into the main building and to class. By the time you get there the class is mostly filled, but you find a seat near the back next to a gnome on an extra tall chair. He has pointed ears, and when standing, would likely only come to your knees. His short hair also extends down into heavy sideburns and he has a patch on his chin.

"Heya," he says with a wave. "Don't know if I've ever really spoken to you, but I'm Joivus Pibbleskip. Good to meet you."

"Likewise. Yeah, I've seen you around."

"Not that many people do. You know, size and all... Well, the ladies know me." He winks.

You chuckle and look over the classroom.
