Fortunately, she has an old school uniform to blend in with other students. She received it from those three students to help with infiltrating the building Zeal could be in.
Silverport is close to the sea, and can be rather hot.
Outside of the classrooms, the school uniform, a blue dress, is worn open faced. Most people wear shorts and an undershirt or chest covering when doing this, although how much skin they show largely depends on the person.
A large number of students here are young adults, in her early 20s. Some are muscular and some are quite skinny.
When Pine first came here, she visited a recreational potion store. A store for people to just potions recreationally,
a temporary escape from the stressful academic life.
After spending the morning hours reading several books, the gist of it is…
The Serpent Scholars Potion Processing Plant (often called ‘processing plant’)
Built during the 1200-1300s, it is located in a cave that used to be an underground town of pale goblins called “Sunless” , goblins born with a medical skin condition that is extremely weak to sunlight. Few minutes of exposure will result in the skin being burnt and blisters forming.
During this period, there were only sea serpents living in Silverport. In an attempt to help them, they gave them a formula and ingredients for creating healing and blood clotting potions.
Because of their medical condition, exposure to lights is painful for them, and this results in boiling ingredients improperly and creating a particularly concentrated version of the healing potions. This concoction is effective at quickly curing burns wounds, but slowly created tumors within their bodies.
By the time tumors could be seen on their bodies, it was already too late. With the risk of these potions contaminating nearby cities and their water sources, the sea serpents hired mercenaries to hunt down any pale goblins that tried to leave the underground town and sealed it off.
