That is true in a lot of cases, but knowing how to network can seem daunting to many people.

In our course we do a run through on how the industry is looking and push our students to actively network (and how to do it well!).

Dust motes hang in perpetuity and amber light from everburning candles swarm the building in a constant light, trapped within a frozen protection spell. Where does this dark energy come from, and who created it?

After the High Table's failed attempt to overthrow the king, they were subsequently executed and their heads were displayed on Plinths throughout the kingdom.

Many people believed they heard voices from the skulls, stories of their life and plans towards the king's downfall.

A screech rang out against the walls of the Cavern, to beseech those it considered above, yet no divinity bothered to humour, for a body stood in line made form with that of mortals it stood divine.

Hugo the Painter was a celebrated artist, known for his lifelike, detailed artistry infused with Life Blood.

But few know about the early works; pieces from before his fame, now lost in time.
