Tower Happenings Tuesday (Part 2)

Hello readers!

It's time, once more, for Tower Happenings Tuesday!  In case you don't recall, Tower Happenings Tuesday is an entry that the Council requests that we do here every now and again, mostly during particularly eventful weeks.  So let's see what we've got going on this week!

Tuesday (Today):  There will be a Dragon Angel drill today.  As is traditional, you won't know when it's coming*. Extra credit for this drill will be given to those who give the most convincing impression of being obliterated.
*Much like a true Dragon Angel attack.

Wednesday:  The Happyshine "Totally Legit" Vocational School (Down at the Docks branch) will be holding an event at the Tower on Wednesday to showcase some of their more popular classes.  As you know, the Tower and the Vocational school have an agreement that allows Super Wizard students to take a number of classes free of charge.  The representative will be showing some of their new classes at this event, like Kneecapping for Hobbyists and Professionals, Nefarious But Mostly Legal Alchemy, and Ferreting out Squealers.  You won't want to miss it!

Thursday:  Thursday is Elder Fred's birthday!  As of such, students and graduates and retired Super Wizards, as well as nobility from the world over will be making their yearly pilgrimage to the tower to join him in celebration!  Classes will be canceled as most Elders and Super Wizards will be too intoxicated to teach them.  Students should expect all Super Wizards and Elders to be grumpier than usual on Friday, and they should probably avoid them at all costs.

Friday: Classes will be canceled this Friday as all at the Tower observe the Nelson Ascension.

Saturday:  Elder Mary will be holding a scavenger hunt of some sort at the Plains of Abandonment on Saturday.  All students are required to attend.  I think she's looking for something specific there, but whenever I ask her she just says "One day, I'll find it."  And stares off wistfully into the horizon* until I get bored and walk away.
*Or, if she's indoor, at a wall.

Sunday:  The Scripture of Torp says that an apocalyptic event will take place on Sunday.  I don't put a lot of stock into the Scripture of Torp, but the Tower is required to provide Torpers with passes to leave Tower grounds for the day to await their end in the company of loved ones.  The pass is only good for one day, however, and classes resume Monday as per usual.

Monday:  Assuming Torp doesn't smite the world with his lightning discus or some other such nonsense, Monday will be a standard class day.  The Council has informed me of some sort of quest they want me to take, however.  Depending on the details, Monday will either see an entry from my intern or the start of the second Student Highlight week.
