Greetings Mai, it looks like you have gotten stronger already.
However being a mage of Sabertooth is about more than just strength. We strive to protect and help the people of Earthland, from threats both extraterrestial and otherwise. From what I have heard you have still room to grow when it comes to this, so your exam has been selected accordingly.
A human village nearby Ace of Spades has been hit by a freak storm and requires aid. Your exam shall consist of going to that village and helping them so far as you are able. Your tasks will most likely involve helping repair damaged structures, saving people trapped under the rubble and fetching supplies for the healers so they can tend to the wounded, among other things.
But the situation might not be as straightforward as that. The villagers are aware that the disaster that hit their homes was unnatural and are upset and on edge. You will have to show tact and sympathy to convince them to let you help them. This might seem unfair but people who have just gone through hardships are often not thinking clearly. As the protectors we have to tolerate and endure this as we do our best to help them recover and move on.
Your exam will have to be at least 2,000 words long and have the following requirements: you must have improved the situation in the village. You must have cooperated with the villagers, because they know what needs to be done.
Causing harm to either the village or the villagers will automatically result in you failing the exam. Threatening or antagonizing the villagers will also most likely cause you to fail the exam.
The good news is that the city of Ace of Spades is also planning to help with the relief efforts, but due to delays it will take several hours for their people to arrive. Once they do you can consider yourself to be relieved from your duties and whether you pass or not will be decided by what you have accomplished in that time and whether you managed to earn the trust of the villagers.
I look forward to seeing you make Sabertooth proud,
Shirokawa Itori
