On the outskirts of a city, high up in the mountains, lays a large building. It's cracked and old, the stone walls standing tall and high. The building itself is far from crumbling; its foundations still stand strong. First built as a church in the mountains, the secluded old edifice still looms on the edge of a forest, stalwartly and silently keeping its dark secrets and stories.

This church is called St. Shodai. A once-lavish building were people would go for peace and strength, it has gone through cosmetic renovations during the decades, its original form slowly growing a shell of modern architecture. It stands like a lonely old soldier about forty minutes out of town---nestled snugly amid a rash of haggard trees, with a high wrought-iron fence wrapping it in from the cold. It's safe here, and the sun is always bright and warm.

Many years have passed since the first beams were raised into place, and the church grew too old to stay functioning. The first caretakers aged with the building, and soon they passed on and the church was sold to a new generation. Under the vision of its new owners, the church was giving a new task: housing a prestigious private boarding school to house the high school students whose parents can afford it. Many additions have been built onto the school, making it larger with each extension. Dormitory halls, a school courtyard and many rooms for classes have almost entirely refaced the identity of the building, so that it is almost only a church by name alone. The large old halls of the church still serve as school rooms, and the clock tower still stands high. Though it has been over one hundred years since the church has been functional, the walls still serve as a reminder of the rich culture it used to hold.

The school campus is large with many courtyards and trees surrounding it. The lake near the School has docks, and serves as a school symbol and recreation center of the campus. There is a large clock tower that many of the students like to spread rumors about---it eternally chimes three and a half minutes late, feeding the fire to all the ghost stories the senior students circulate. With all the things there are to do on school grounds, the place is a very busy place to be.

The school is now known as Shodai Academy.
