Valland University Commons Area Valland University is the first of its kind on the Mistbourne Isles. The college is located in Neue Ritterheim, the Twin Cities' southern settlement. Ralf Valgard granted land to Immanuel, Dean of VU, a Vessian scholar, and charged him with the development of the school. Currently Valland University consists of a central building called the Commons Area; this structure consists of a student lounge, library, mess hall, and private study areas for individuals or groups. Nearby is the first lecture hall and the initial dormitory complex. Much of the college is still undergoing construction, with basic and practical functions being established first. Immanuel has plans find architects to help him plan the future of the school. Many of the students attending Valland University are native citizens of Neue Ritterheim and Wulfgardt. Consul Ralf Valgard has insisted that the inhabitants of the Twin Cities be literate, taught the humanities, and encouraged to study philosophy as well as reason, logic, mathematics, and the science. Foreign students and professors have been invited to attend the college as well since no other university exists. |

"I believe they're ready, sir."
"Very well, then," Immanuel replied to his receptionist. "Let us meet the very first class of Valland University." The Dean stood up from his chair and exited the room, following a hallway towards the student lounge. It was there that the college's students could gather to interact and relax. Today, however, it was where their dean, Immanuel, would welcome them. A small stage was set up, which he ascended before standing behind a podium. The chatter of excited students started to die down when they saw Immanuel take his spot.
"Good afternoon," he began. "I am Immanuel, the Dean of Valland University. Some of you are here because the Consul has deemed it necessary. Others chose to come here in pursuit of knowledge. I would like to personally welcome all of you. You have the honor of being the first student body of the only university found on the Mistbourne Isles. The professors are eager to begin the first semester, providing you with classes on humanities and sciences alike. From philosophy, history, and economic theory, to mathematics and biology. Lectures will begin in one week. In the meantime you are encouraged to explore the Commons and the college grounds. And please, outfit your dorms with personal affects. The mess hall is open as well. Please, make yourselves at home in Valland University, and prepare to enrich your minds with all the knowledge you can."
The staff and students in attendance began to clap their hands, and Immanuel smiled and held up his hand as he descended the stage.
