Subject: Obelisk Maintenance Downtime
Students of Camulus, please attend carefully.
As some of you may already be aware, the obelisks have now been taken offline for their scheduled housekeeping. Due to the complex magical and divine nature of the obelisks, and the amount of work that will need to be done in order to ensure that they are fully functional throughout the Tournament, we do not have an estimation as to how long the devices will be offline. You will, however, be kept appraised of the situation as it unfolds. I would advise that you spend this time in reflection as to what exactly this means for you as students. If you are of inferior intellectual capacity, or an Alpha (but I repeat myself), I have helpfully appended a section to this email about what this means for you.

What Does This Mean For You?As the Obelisks are now offline, each and every one of you are now mortal. Injuries will not heal, death will be resolutely final and pain will not be dulled. As fighting and power usage outside the classroom/Tournament arenas are supposed to be restricted anyway, this should not pose too great a problem. As long as you all act like appropriately mature adults, I doubt that everyday life will change significantly.
However.
It should also be noted that many people have frequently called into question my mental state or lack thereof. What I would say is that, if I really am as psychopathic as many of you seem to believe, then those of you who have decided that mouthing off to a mentor is a good course of action whilst attending this Academy had better pray to the god of your choice that I have better things to do than hunt you down and carry out a little backdated detention. Sleep tight.
