"No blood today." He wasn't in the mood to deal with any squeamish children, "But if anyone wishes to use blood for the seal next time, you may whenever you wish, come into the classroom and carve some more runes and use your blood by adding just a few drops into the red ochre mix."

He headed up to the board and gave it a tap. Startled, the blackboard began writing again. It had apparently dozed off.

"The homework will be up shortly. Finish painting the red ochre into the rune carvings you just made, and then you may leave."
ooc: Class will close in 24 hours.

Emily took some notes on her parchment, she was actually a little disappointed they weren't using blood... "Oh well next time", she said to herself.
Emily took the small brush in her hand and traced the colour over her rune. It did look more complete this way than it had before. Emily was pleased with her work and couldn't wait for the next lesson.
She quickly jotted down the homework that slwoly appeared on the board and then placed her belongings in her bag.
"Thanks for the lesson Professor", she said as she exited the classroom.
