One Year Prior To Departure

No story has a true beginning, only a point where you begin telling it. So we shall start here.

Within the illustrious nation of Aleteros Arryanna lives and practices her craft. Studying the heavens for her is not merely a matter of charting constellations and the waxing and waning of the moon. There are powers in the heavens, for most mages this power seems a fickle thing, unreliable and mercurial, but Arryanna has uncovered the secrets to the movements of the sky and the power it offers. This has proven a fruitful endeavor. Arryanna has enjoyed success in her career. She's earned the respect and esteem of her colleagues and been given the opportunity to pursue projects at her leisure.

OOC: Your character is an experienced mage, successful and well established.

Writing Prompt: Describe a day in the life of Arryanna, where she lives, how she starts a typical date, the people she encounters and the projects he's working on. Being an elf is rare as Aleteros is a predominately human country, though competency with magic overcomes and racial barriers. End your post with him learning that an extra-planar expedition is being planned.
