Schools, in Sándor's experience, tended to be fairly similar. Even if the layouts and amenities varied, there was always a common thread of how things were laid out. It changed over time, but as long as he had a general idea of when the school was built, Sándor had an easy time learning the layout.
Except with Starlight Academy. Starlight Academy made no sense by any standard. The school was old, but it had been added to over and over again. It should have been a mess of a layout, and yet it wasn't. Everything was neatly laid out like the entire school had been magically rearranged several times over the course of it's time.
Which it probably had. That was the issue with magic schools--they were magic, and magic didn't play by any rules. Maybe it was hypocritical for Sándor to think that, considering he didn't play by human rules, but he thought it just the same.
Thankfully the school seemed well aware that figuring things out was painful even for teachers, and had assigned a teacher to show him around on his first day - to show him where his classes were going to be, and to answer any questions he had. Sándor had dressed up a bit for the part--too formal, most likely--but all he could do was wait patiently for his guide to arrive.
