well, kais situation would not be disclosed to the school rip but so calais takes the first born, male or female if its a girl and she came to the school, wouldnt she need to take the boys classes bc none of the girls classes are about ruling a country? ]] hm, yeah, actually didn't think about that a lot. So I think under those circumstances, females who are going to rule and males who aren't would probably switch the Command and Household Management classes. Most of the other stuff is covered under general classes, except military strategy. In the case of that class, probably a similar thing would happen but just those ruling don't take it if that makes sense. I made them with more of a male-ruler thing in mind but then like only two of my countries are ruled by males exclusively so idk what I was thinking lol))

--kai nicollier ; prince of calais
It wasn't that common was a bad thing, far from it, Kai just knew Keagan preferred to read in his own language. But common was useful, of course, and anything else Keagan could pick up would also help. "We have a tentative alliance with D'raa and I should be looking more into their language and history," he said easily, not all a lie. Okay, most of it was a lie. Kai was fluent in both written and spoken D'raan and was up to date on any political affairs. The only true part was the alliance, which Kai didn't want to discuss. It was a complicated manner and it was no business of anyone else. Instead, he asked, "Why the kennels?" as an honest question and to derail the conversation topic. He could always like, but that didn't mean Kai was comfortable idling on it. He started to move into the aisles of the library, inspecting the books and their spines, though many of them only had words on the front cover. It was a lot of common, which, again, wasn't bad, and fortunately it covered a lot of topics. If Kai was more of a scholar he would be interested in the history of other countries and linguistic differences between nations, but he was happy learning over Keagan's shoulder.

Prince Franque Guildersleeve xx Ziotsu Eswain. Island nation south of D'raa. Religious. On uneasy terms with Matte, but not outright enemies. Franque's brain rattled off the short list of facts he could remember about the country, putting a slight smile on his face as he did so.
"Ah, nice to meet you Nicolaa." Franque hesitated for a moment, furrowing his brow. "Or would I call you Princess? Ah- sorry, I'm unused to other country's customs. It's my first year here as well." He paused, wanting to add more to his statements. But he knew oversharing could be dangerous- especially concerning a country they weren't allied with. ((sorry it's shorter, i'm very tired lol))

Nicolaa felt a little more at ease knowing that there was someone else that was new to the school. Even if that person was from Matte. Not that she personally had anything against them, but growing up there has always been the worry that the country will decide that they want to take over their island due to the resources. Not that they would be able to fight back effectively. While their military wasn't terrible, it was obvious that their military power was not even close to their highest priority. Realizing she had been quiet in thought, Nicolaa took a deep breath. "Sorry, no Nicolaa is just fine, we're both royalty afterall" She mused, wanting to continue something but without knowing anything about Franque it was difficult to think of a conversation topic other than their respective countries. She would rather avoid that conversation at the moment "You seem to have been here for a bit longer than me, have you met anyone else or is it just the two of us?" She let out a small laugh, what she said a bit of a joke in her head.

Rhykaer Lovell "The moon is a friend for the lonesome to talk to." - Carl Sandburg ✠ ✠ ✠ ✠ ✠
Listening intently, Rhy nodded as Kai explained the situation. A tentative alliance... well that means that I won’t be pursing this conversation further. It’s not my place to pry. And the boy seemed like he didn’t want to continue anyway. Rhy pulled a book with D’raan lettering on the spine, “I’m sure they will very much appreciate you learning about their culture and language then. I hope it goes well for you.”
And that was that. Rhykaer had learned a long time ago to keep opinions to a minimum and advise to his own thoughts unless asked. His mother and uncle - while kind in their own way - had never prompted much discussion from him. Being the second child, his opinion was rarely sought after. Even his brother didn’t have much input into policies or conversations. And so he had learned that it was just easier not to try to partake. Be seen and not heard.
It was less heartache and rejection in the end.
Rhy held the book out in front of him with a tentative smile, “I brought a few hunting dogs from Vawhil and they are currently in the kennels. I usually visit twice daily, sometimes three times a day. This morning I noticed that one of my best males and honestly, a personal favorite of mine, fell ill. I left the kennel servants with some instructions, but I want to be there to see him through myself.”
His smile turned sheepish, embarrassed almost, “Not that I know what I’m doing. I had a servant in Vawhil that was practically a miracle worker... I’m afraid that if I can’t get it under control, I’ll have to put him down.”
Rhy gave a shrug of his shoulders as if to hide his concern. Yet he was concerned. Those dogs were one of his only escapes and to loose one so soon after arriving at the Academy... It was probably the stress of travel and the new environment that had done it. But he didn’t want to bother the boy with it anymore. So he moved on.
“But no matter. We are looking for literature in D’raan. Take this.”

--kai nicollier ; prince of calais
I hope it goes well for you. Yes, well, Kai hoped so too. But it wasn't something he wanted to think about--he knew it would come to him every night when he was trying to sleep anyway, so dwelling on it in his free time was pointless. Though, his presence was welcomed heavily by King and Queen Acampora, so everything he'd done so far has been productive. He hoped it would stay that way; he wouldn't be able to bear leaving Keagan if he was deemed 'unfit' and he would not settle for being a regular consort, an unofficial lover. Some would think he had too much to worry about as a sixteen year old, but come his eighteenth birthday would be decision time and he wasn't ready for that. He had to worry about it now, prepare himself, or just be full of anxiety for two more years. That was fine.
Anyway. Kai found it odd that this boy would not know how to take care of his pets--yes, even though a prince has caretakers for everything, an animal was... different. Kai may have a stablehand watch his horse, but he knew how to take care of her and how to handle things if something bad happened. It would do him no good to be ignorant if he were riding and she broke her ankle, would it? "I don't see why you can't bring that servant here, or hire another nearby," he said nonetheless, not voicing his secret opinion. "If they have a kennel, they should have the wherewithal to house a caretaker." He took the book and thanked Rhykaer, first examining it in his hands. Kai couldn't possibly know everything Keagan had already read considering the time they spent apart and the boy's reading speed. He slammed through novels, memoirs, histories, all faster than he should since the Crown Prince should probably be spending more time learning about ruling. "If he fell ill this morning and is already that bad, there should be an obvious reason as to why. Something like an acute injury or poisoning." Kai liked dogs, and he knew that dogs were not... the smartest of animals. Cats knew not to drink contaminated water, but dogs ate most of everything including things they shouldn't. Dogs had a pension for chasing death. He took the next book Rhykaer held out, and then grabbed one in common off of the shelves as well. "I could come with you, if you wanted. Or see if my guards can find someone suitable in the nearby town, since they are staying there."

(I wouldnt be surprised if they said something similar I tried to find something for fun, but other than a general history on how vet medicine evolved there really isn't much on what they were actualyl called)
