《A Raven's Craving • Namgi [✔️]》1
Advertisement
Hundreds of students, five houses, and one school. Hummel School of Magic, where roughly 750 students attended. Some were from great and powerful backgrounds while others were quite the opposite. Every single student was assigned a house by a whimsical smoke before their first year there.
The first house, Jungvein, was filled with students who presented leadership and heartily qualities. These were friendliest and the smartest of the five houses, but they did have their downsides. Despite being leaders, they all had their different motives, good or bad. And so working on projects with multiple students from this house rarely worked out. The colors of this house were gold and purple.
The second house was called Cloudswell. Students placed in Cloudswell tended to be very creative and had an optimistic look about life. They were always bouncing around the school and speaking to someone. That speaking got them into trouble plenty of times, causing detentions and other points. Colors for Cloudswell were pink and silver.
The house that strikes fear into students, Crowseen, held students of power and secrets. These students were either close to some people or none at all. Always seen picking fights or conducting some kind of potion for their benefit and someone else's demise. Their colors included black and orange.
The fourth house, Levanter, housed the brave and athletic students. They lived to play sports and skip class to pull tricks on friends or foes. Somehow, they passed their classes. Their colors included red and blue.
The final house was called Kastler, yet was nicknamed "those who are undecided". Students in this class were powerful and different from other students. There was always something special, too special to be put in one of the four other houses, which seemed to be normal. Kastler's colors were green and white.

Let's go back in time, when a certain boy was starting his first year at Hummel. Min Yoongi, a jet-black haired boy from a powerful wizarding background. He was quiet, didn't speak to anyone on the ride to the school nor even tried to communicate. He sparked plenty of rumors, ranging from how he'd be a Crowseen or not even chose.
When they all arrived at the school, the smoke floated around them all. One by one, they stepped up and would stand still, waiting for the smoke to choose their house. Their robes would be a perfect, pure white until it would change colors into their house.
Yoongi went up, and the whole place hushed. They recognized his surname and awaited to see his house. Minutes ticked by before he felt a change. He looked down. His robes were lined with green patterns. This he had expected. He looked towards the table full of his seniors and others, who were cheering and waving him over. He slowly made his way over, finding himself a seat and watching the rest of the new students receive their houses.
It wasn't often someone would be in Kastler, usually three to nine students out of the rough seventy to hundred entering the school. They welcomed him warmly with smiles and questions. He was quiet and didn't answer any of them, too shy and tired. They understood why he didn't speak and let him be.
Now, present time, Yoongi was in the sixth year out of nine, making him sixteen. Every student stayed at the school until they were nineteen and ready for the world.
It was a chilly, cloudy fall day as he walked across the campus. His white and green scarf wrapped around him as he wore a standard hoodie with green designs and a white backdrop along with white jeans. This was the dress code. You had to match your houses colors. Silver earrings dangled from his ears, he walked with a small bounce.

Since his first day at the school, he has became known as the boy who never spoke. The only time his mouth opened or moved was during meal times or mumbling a quiet spell. Not many had heard him speak, aside from two close friends, he stayed quiet.
But that would all change today.
He headed inside to the school, bag full of his books strapped around him. He wore black-rimmed glasses and walked quickly. Students walked to classes, speaking and laughing. He walked past them, not even sparing a glance. He kept his eyes low, not bothering to look up. Not doing that simple act would cost him.
He felt something collide with his shoulder, shoving him back. He closed his eyes, sucking in a breath. It didn't hurt that much, but there was a small amount of pain. He opened his eyes, looking around to find who had ran into him.
There stood a boy, glaring at him. Behind that boy was one other. The boy was wearing a orange and black sweatshirt, indicating he was from Crowseen. Yoongi glared back up at him, showing he was not afraid. He had been through worse, of course.
"Watch where you're going, tiny!"
Yoongi grabbed the bag of his strap tightly. That last word was one thing he hated to hear. The boy looked at him, cocking his head to the side a little, getting up into Yoongi's face.
"Not speaking, eh? And you're a Kastler... disappointing."
Yoongi raised his fist, but was pulled back a little.
"Woahh now Yoongi, let's not get into any fights with the lower years now," a boy said. Jeon Jeongguk, a third year in Levanter. He held Yoongi back, who just seemed to glare at the boy. They, in turn, laughed.
"Lower years? Look at how tall he is! He must be a second year!"
Yoongi couldn't take it. He pulled out of his friends grasp, took out his wand and muttered a small spell, pointing it at the boy. Students watched from afar, awaiting what happened next. The boy, glued to the ground, looked at him in confusion.
"I don't know this spell..?"
Yoongi tsked, pocketing his wand and walking up to them. He grabbed the boy's chin, examining his features before making him look towards him.
"Know your place, fifth year," Yoongi seethed before letting him go. He walked past him, holding his head up high. He left everyone in shock.
"Wait- that boy can speak?!"

Cultivating Earth [Hiatus]
[This fiction is on indefinite hiatus. I'm currently acting as a 24-hour caregiver for my step-father who had a massive heart attack. I apologize for disappearing so quickly, but sometimes that's just life. I'll return as soon as possible. Sorry everyone!] Zhao Gang, after hundreds of thousands of years cultivating, has finally reached the penultimate threshold. He is ready to ascend to the level of True Immortal. Driven by the need for a place his enemies won't find him, Zhao Gang puts together an audacious plan. He has developed a revolutionary new formation which will allow him to ascend while on even the lowest planes. To avoid drawing attention, he has to choose a plane that is relatively desolate, however. He chooses Earth. Fast forward three thousand years. Zhao Gang discovers what his work has wrought - a cultivation-free culture that has delved the deep mysteries of creation - he can't help but think how this tiny little planet devoid of natural energy could affect the course of all creation. There's only one problem. For that to happen, he has to succeed in cultivating Earth. Notes: Chinese names should be ignored in the social context - they don't mean anything. Sorry for slaughtering such a beautiful tradition. This novel starts off slower than most. If the slow-roll isn't your thing, you might want to give this a pass. If it's not for you, I understand. Also, releases may be broken up into smaller chunks. The goal is 5k words, but definitely more than 4k. If you see a short release, be aware that more is probably coming. I'll be honest and say that I'm struggling with each new scene, if only because I want to balance the scope of vision with good pacing. I hope the work I put into it is worthwhile.

Alviona (undergoing Rewrite).
This fiction is going to undergo severe Editing and a Rewrite over next few months. Here is what it hopes to accomplish: 1) Fix the glaring issues from Style in every chapter 1-31 (Dialogues, POV switches and Head-hopping too much) 2) Add some new chapters in and justify the development between Sofia and Anita 3) Remove the info dumps and make it more organic 4) Finalize the genres that this fiction belongs to 5) Create warning in the synopsis relating to the contents of the fiction. 6) Overhaul and show what Mira's view on Alviona is (slowly) 7) Introduce new characters 8) Show chapters the way they were intended, as clues apparently were not visible at all! 9) Make Alviona a bit more serious. 10) Make me (Author) enjoy reading my own work more (yes! :)) Hi. I have been gone for quite a long while. With heart surgery and such that has happened two months ago, I had not had a chance to log on RR due to being hospitalized. I had some other issues that the admins were kind enough to deal with on this fiction. It's good to see everything in one piece. The synopsis has been removed. Chapter 1 should be coming out sometimes before christmas. A lot has changed. I hope for the better. Instead of edits, I have re-read every single chapter and found it to be unsatisfying. A lot did not make sense and unless you have previously speculated what Alviona is, many things she does won't fall into pieces. Well then, time to address all of this. Ladies and gentlelmen, this fiction is undergoing a full scale re-write. While the characters and developments stay the same, it's being done differently. So much that the world should feel darker as it should have been. For those who have stuck around and know the story: Awesome. I worked hard on this, and hope that you will like my re-write. For thos that are new: Welcome. Give me some time, as I am super sluggish. I don't know much time is some time, but I gurantee chapter 1 will be up before Christmas. This said, again, thank you and know that I am back. And that this fiction will be completed. AT ANY COST. I will update synopsis after I post chapter 1. I might post Alviona (revised, as this current one is far too.... simplified, watered down, and dissapointing version of it) seperately. Those that want this, here. But I don't want to add chapter 40. It won't make sense without the backup and world-building of re-write. It will piss myself off. Now then, let's write hm? *This beautiful piece of art is provided by Charee from DeviantArt* https://www.deviantart.com/chalii
