 Upon arriving from the portal, an attendant was already waiting for the students dressed in simple dull gold robes, in front of what looked like a large hallway, a pavilion resting on top of the water, surrounded by lotuses. The atmosphere was serene, quiet. They nodded once as the last of the students filed in.
"Thank you all students of Amityville, and welcome to the Clan of Conquest." They bowed, politely. "I will explain your stay here. While we are close to the Imperial palace, all sections leading to the Imperial quarters are off limits, patrolled day and night by guards. That is, any area leading to-" And here, they pointed towards the tallest building in the center of the city- "the center of our esteemed realms. Please treat everyone with respect, this is an important virtue in our clans. You will have one day to explore the area, and I will guide you now to your temporary dorms now so you can rest and orient yourselves. Starting tomorrow, you will begin the first of your classes and training field exercises. You will have free time to explore various sanctioned vicinities after your studies, of course. Now, I will show you to your resting quarters. " OOC exclaim - [ ORP / PRP PROMPTS ] ORP/ PRP PROMPTS ARE NOW OPEN! Make sure to read these before starting, you can earn Four Clans points from participating in these! exclaim - [ TRAINING FIELDS ] Training Field exercises are also up! Please choose ONE activity per OOC 24 hours for your student to participate in, you will have to make a new thread to do these. You can simply reuse your old thread from last day, see rules again if you're having issue here which contains all the information needed. You can earn Four Clans points from participating in these exclaim - [ The DORM ROOMS ] The Dorm Rooms are now where the source of all ORPS will be happening for people staying here. Simply EXIT out of this thread and move on to the DORM ROOMS. YOU CAN send skellyphone texts and messages to people while in the dorm rooms, make sure to mark ENTER AND EXIT as you need while moving around, though it is possible to have your student in the dorm rooms while waiting for some of your prps/ other orps/ training to wrap up, that's not a huge issue

Yin stepped through the portal, and began looking around in obvious interest. He could see a lotus covered area around them, and he could not help but be reminded of one of the larger temples he had went to as a scareling. In fact, the whole decor of the place was reminiscent of the clan. It was...it was nice. To not have absolutely everything from the ground up feel foreign. Yes, there were certainly elements he was not accustomed to, but it was a marked improvement.
When the attendant bowed he bowed in return, all ears. This, all of the rules and regulations, the expectation of respect, was something he could identify with. He began to relax, feeling much more at ease. Perhaps here they would have some of the same activities, the same types of spars. The clothing was already somewhat familiar. Newly excited about the ordeal he followed along, ready for whatever was to come. Or so he thought.

Lumi walked in still in her more respectable clothing, even if they had a small tear in them from last week. Looking around she smiled, it was so pretty, so nice and rich. Unlike the last week, but something just felt a little off she couldn't quiet figure out what it was. She watched and listened attentively to the attendant.
She listened to the rules quietly and found herself wondering what Julian was up to. Shaking her head she looked around and wondered as long as she didn't go to that middle building if there were other pretty places to go look at. As the attendant finished up Lumi decided to go and explore the new isle.

Tyalessa almost immediately noticed a difference in warmth from that of the death clan, since she was from a different school she couldnt go back to Amityville nor did she particularly want to because she eventually grew on the death clans culture, she looked round to see beautiful flowers she had never seen before, they rested on top of the water and seem to add to the calm and quiet atmosphere around them. The clansmen of conquest were very polite and were almost adding to the calm atmosphere, their robes were beautiful to Essa and the place made Essa just want to drift off and sleep. She followed willingly to the dorms, excited to see what those were like

... Maybe he should have stuck with War, Roch thought as he listened to the attendant. The place looked classy--WAY classier than the rich parts of Halloween back home. He'd already decided that he in no way, shape or form fit in THERE. He definitely wasn't going to fit in here, he thought with an inward sigh.
So what if he admired Invi? There was no way he'd ever BE like Invi. It was sort of like admiring classical music--no, cuz he could play classical music. He needed a different comparison--oh! It was like admiring a piano player. Course... his ego was telling him that he could figure out how to play one of those, too--
Well, he was on the right track, the punk boil thought as he followed the gold guy to the dorms. He'd figure it out sooner or later.

Hel was kind of having the same thoughts as Roch.
She really didn’t belong in a place like this. Much too formal, too delicate, too pretty for someone of her nature. It was that weird bond she supposed she would call a friendship with the Heir to Conquest that made her curious about this Clan though. That and there hadn’t been any Conquest Trials during that event at Amityville hmmm…Regardless, she was here, and strangely, she was glad to be back. After having a rather refreshing and insightful week at the Isle of Death, she hoped it’d be the same case here.
The ghoul rubbed her shoulder idly, and soon followed after the Horseman, eyes lingering on all the lotus flowers before she shuffled off.

Mei smiled as she stepped out of the portal and into the land of Conquest. For some strange reason she just felt right here. Like everything about this place was familiar to her...somehow.
But it was a prettier change from the simplicity of the Death Isle. Not that she didn't appreciate the Death Clan's decor, she just felt it was lacking just a smidge.
She half listened to the attendant as she watched the lotuses float by. Hopefully this week would prove to be fruitful as well.

Ulmuka felt out of place. He was still dressed casually, having just come from the war clan, but this new place was formal and he was very accustomed to that sort of atmosphere.
He was eager to bathe and get into his nicer clothes again. Shoes seemed to be back on the agenda. The strix had enjoyed War immensely and hoped that Conquest would be similarly educational.

Stepping through the Portal, Poke could have sworn she had entered into a completely different world. Having come from war and it's jungle wildness, she was now in a very formal looking area. Sadly though, her clothes were not in any way, formal. Her original dark shirt and jeans were covered in cuts, tears, and even smeared with dirt. She hadn't had the opportunity to clean herself up, instead spending the last two days sleeping and regaining her strength.
Trying her best not to be noticed, she kept to the back of the crowd, listening to the explanation, before quickly moving away from the area before anyone would comment on her attire. Maybe she could get a chance to clean herself here...

Conquest
The Ghoul stood quietly when she entered with the others, she hadn't shown up back at home during the break, as a matter of fact no one was really sure where the ghoul had gone till just this morning when she arrived again with the groups to enter the next portal leading to the other islands. Her eyes flicked dimly as they listened to the guide, towards the buildings around them. Passing over other students as if looking through them.
What had happened to her back on War Island still lingered inside her, could she trust Conquest or any horsemen? She had to find Invictus, she needed some kind of explanation. She offered a stiff bow to the guide before turning away and heading off on her own.

Malodore felt much invigorated by its week at the Isle of Famine, and also by its brief return to Amityville. All was well at home, and that erased any trace of worries from the plague doctor's mind...
But could this Clan be any more different from the one it had just left? It had guessed at the differences in their cultures based on the clothing the Heirs wore, but this was astonishing. The opulence and serenity seemed far removed from Famine - but then, was there not equal serenity in the hush of sand or sweep of mothwings? Appearances were not everything. Still, it appreciated the architectural lines, the attention to detail, the cleanliness...
This would indeed be an interesting week.

With a soft hum of appreciation the ghoul admired her surroundings directly past the glow of the portal. She'd liked the island of Plague and it's residence, they had been very interesting, but here..? Everything was so elegant, shiny. In a way the Island of Conquest reminded her of home, though the racial influence was notably different. Similar, but definitely different.
She listened as their guide set up very clear restrictions on where they were permitted to wander, and when the time came, she obediently followed along behind towards the dorms.

Mitsu was in the middle of the pack as the arrive to Conquest Isle. The scene here was much different than that of Death. It was brighter, the smells were more natural and the buildings seemed rather detailed and elaborate. She nodded to the horseman who greeted them, standing awkwardly next to Hel and the others. She spotted a few students she had seen before but none that she really knew.
She listened closely, taking note to be respectful and what areas were off limits. With those noted she followed the masses toward the dorms where they would be staying for the next week.

From the very moment she stepped through the portal, Riley's gaze was held by one thing, and one thing alone. There, in the center of the isle, was a palace. The very icon of conquest and power, rising up into the sky as if challenging the heavens themselves. Riley listened to the host, but her eyes never left the sight of the center palace, instinctively drawn there. She heard their host explicitly detail how they were not allowed exactly where she wanted to be, and her heart sunk in dismay. It was clear then, that her time at the Isle of Conquest would be a disappointment unless that changed.
She wanted it. She wanted in to the palace so badly, she could taste it on her tentacles, and every move she would make for the next week would be in an effort to bend the rules in her favor. She continued to eye the palace longingly, even as she took her bag and headed to the dorms.

[enter] There was different scent to the Isle of Conquest. Maybe it was the blend of incense and tea leaves, or the Isle’s godly cleanliness. While the War Clan shaped their world to the flora and fauna around them, this Clan seemed to have shaped this world for their liking. There was a sense of order that the slimer felt comfortable with. They had a certain flavor as well that the ghost liked.
He nodded at the attendant; it felt almost perfunctory to do. He packed light- he actually brought nothing- and followed the rest of the students to their dorms. He eyed the pack, seeing an influx of other students, those he has seen around the War Isle, and a few familiar faces.
He was excited, and kept in well with an aloof façade.
