Birthday Surprise for Headmistress Kela

On Pi day the Stabbies all greeted our Headmistress Kela with lovely birthday wishes! But unbeknownst to her, a plot was brewing. A group of Stabbies local to the Headmistress known as the “Okies” planned and schemed in advance to make Kela’s birthday extra special. Under the ruse of a fancy dinner date, she was lured out to a restaurant this past Friday where the Okies were waiting to shower her with gifts, affection, and alcohol!

Luna, Korodi, and the elusive Lilliane Sky spearheaded the planning and execution of the surprise.

Chef Xiru made a super tasty chocolate cake (with some help from Lilliane. She did the icing!)

Also in attendance were Genesis, Maximillion, Ponyo, Ravella, and Lilliane’s Dan.

We’re proud to say that Headmistress Kela had no idea that the Okies would be there and the surprise party was a success! We love you Kela! Happy Birthday!

Some of the evening’s festivities were captured for your viewing pleasure. See below!

Kisses from Kela

New Faculty Incoming: Professor Hunter Breeze

Ring in the new patch right with Eureka: Final Fantasy XIV’s premier – wait, what it’s copy-pasta from FFXI you say? Regardless, let’s have a lot of fun grinding crystals endlessly and leveling up our characters to the eventual completion of relic weapons and armor which may or may not be best-in-slot gear.

Okay, so why should you attend our brand-new academy-sponsored Eureka Farm Night? Why, because it’s hosted by our brand-new Professor the irreplaceable Hunter Breeze! He will lead us to victory, experience, crystals and relics, with an upbeat and cheerful attitude! Furthermore, drinking away your sorrows will be had by all in the Voice Chat, bring your own booze!

For more information about the new club offering, please see the FC website and calendar. And be sure to /congratulate Hunter on his promotion, we will be sure to put him to good use!
