Due to this unusual awakening they only have a fourth of the [[power]] they would normally have, despite this they're still more powerful than the average practitioner.<ref>“If we withdraw you, it is to protect you. You will lose the ability, the word, and memories. It will not be offered or given again. You will return to your ordinary life, as much like it used to be as we can contrive to make it. Enemies will know you to be Innocent immediately, when the practice is taken from you. That may protect you. But I cannot guarantee it.”<br><br>...<br><br>“The young often need practice. Some of you need it. But the practice is not kind to the young. It is, too often, too rigid. This is a compromise. A new kind of Awakening. A tenuous one. Your practice will be weaker than if it was a true, lifelong Oath. I intend to give you access to powers on a great enough scale that being stuck at a quarter of your usual strength won’t matter. When you turn eighteen, the oath will be binding, and you will inherit the full suite of powers… while losing the ability to withdraw. Decide before then.” - [https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/2022/07/27 Excerpt] from [[Crossed with Silver 19.z]]</ref> Each student has their own specialty <ref>“Stuff.

Just in case we need to defend ourselves. If the innocence charm failed for more of us-”<br><br>“If you bring practice stuff to school the charm won’t work,- [https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/2022/06/21/crossed-with-silver-19-8/ Excerpt] from [[Crossed with Silver 19.8]]</ref> They spend their time doing errands for the numerous [[The Bloody Lords|Lords]] the Carmine Exile has created, doing favours in return for [[power]].<ref>“The Dropped Call will renew the contract at the end of the month, but you need to set up a ward. So people can’t pass through as easily. You should know what you need to do to set that up. Teach the others while you do it.”<br><br>...<br><br>“Second, the White Rot. Stop in at their second branch, pick up the package, drop it off at what will be their fourth branch.”<br><br>...<br><br>Those are responsibilities for forces we’ve contracted for power.- [https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/2022/06/21/crossed-with-silver-19-8/ Excerpt] from [[Crossed with Silver 19.8]]</ref><!-- == Structure == What is the groups composition, its leaders etc. --> ==Members== {| class="sortable wikitable" !

They aren’t recognized. A Lord took over Peterborough just before Musser came here. They shook Allaire’s hand and agreed to work with him, and I don’t think they’ll ever realize on their own, but if they do, I’m not confident they’ll care enough to act on it. Thirteen under Allaire. Four still alive, Forsworn by his departed mother. One, soon to be, under the child. - [https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/2022/04/23/wild-abandon-18-5/ Excerpt] from [[Wild Abandon 18.5]]</ref> ==History== The idea for a secret magic school was originally conceived of by [[Lis]] and the [[Charles Abrams|Carmine Exile]].<ref>“They would be.
