Teaching During a Plague

I have been absent for awhile, due to catching up on my scholars’ scrolls. There is now a plague that has hit our kingdom, it is everywhere travelers and criers tell us.

Today is the first day my scholars will be learning through their scrying mirrors. Next week we shall meet at our mirrors at the same time and chat. The duke has ordered us all to stay inside our homes. Alas, some of the villagers can not follow this concept. One had a small gathering just the Friday past. ‘Tis certain he will now spread the plague more abundantly.

Luckily, my scholars are used to using their magic mirrors, sending crystals, and blue fairy boxes to do their work. I have already received many scrolls by owl and pigeon, which do not carry this form of plague.
