After she awoke, Freya turned on her radio to one of the campus radio stations.
“This is AAUA Student Radio Auroran. Now celebrating 105 years of continual broadcasting.”
Freya reflected on that, even in the Second World War, with the Luftwaffe unable to reach Urbs Aeterna, the radio stations in the city and further west continued broadcasting.
“Official Orientation activities will start today, to help new students familiarise themselves with the vast campus. They will run until Friday.”
Freya knew that already, but it was good to be reminded. She started getting ready.
Freya entered the Dining Hall, where the first year students of Sigrun Sigurdottir Hall were meeting prior to the first Orientation event.
“You’re early,” Dana said.
Freya shrugged. “Breakfast first,” she said.
“Of course.”
By the time Freya had finished breakfast, most of the students in the Hall had gathered.
“Good morning, everyone,” Dana said. “The first event will be a treasure hunt across the campus as is traditional. It is to help everyone familiarise themselves with the layout before classes.”
“How traditional?” another student asked.
“As far as I know, John, it started in the 19th Century, although similar events occurred in earlier eras,” Dana answered.
“Oh,” the student, John, responded.
‘Not everything is ancient,’ Freya thought.
“It will start in half an hour at the Central Plaza,” Dana said.
“That’s good,” Freya said, bouncing up and down. “I can hardly wait.”
